Shiv Thakare, after the finale, shared a set of two pictures featuring himself and MC Stan and wrote, “Aakhir Hum Jeet Gaye. Congrats Maam MS Stand for lifting the Trophy and becoming the Winner of Bigg Boss 16. Haq Se Mandali Trophy Mandali Hi Leke Aayi. [Finally, we won the trophy.]”
Shiv Thakare also shared a picture with Bigg Boss host Salman Khan on Instagram. For the caption, he just attached a tiger face emoji.
After the show, Shiv Thakare told The Indian Express that he was extremely happy for all the love he has received. “I believe in fate and this wasn't meant to happen. Honestly, I am very happy and proud not just about myself but also MC Stan. Honestly, my only aim to be on the show was to go back home with a little more than what I had. I think I am taking back so much more,” he was quoted as saying.
Before leaving for Amravati, Shiv Thakare was spotted at Farah Khan's Bigg Boss party. MC Stan, Sajid Khan, Abdu Rozik, Gauahar Khan, and Gautam Gulati were also part of the bash.
