Introduction
Tanya Mittal is a multifaceted Indian entrepreneur, model, and reality TV star who rose to national prominence as a finalist on Bigg Boss 19 (2025). Known for her viral personality and "youngest millionaire" tag, she is the founder of the luxury gifting brand Handmade Love. Beyond her business acumen, she is a former international beauty queen who has used her platform to advocate for women’s health and empowerment.
Early Life & Childhood
Born on September 27, 2000, in Gwalior, Tanya's early years were marked by both privilege and struggle. She has openly shared her journey of overcoming cleft lip and palate, which required multiple surgeries and led to childhood bullying. Despite these challenges, she developed a resilient spirit and a deep interest in the arts and leadership from a young age.
Education Qualification
Tanya completed her schooling at Vidya Public School in Gwalior. She later moved to Punjab to pursue a Bachelor’s degree in Architecture at Chandigarh University. However, her entrepreneurial drive was so strong that she chose to pivot her focus toward her business ventures before completing her traditional architectural path.
Career Journey
Her career began in the world of pageantry, where she won local titles before moving to the international stage. At just 19, she founded Handmade Love with a mere ₹500 investment, which she scaled into a million-dollar enterprise. She has also established herself as a 3x TEDx speaker and a Josh Talks speaker, sharing her "rags-to-riches" story with aspiring entrepreneurs.
Breakthrough Moment
While she was already successful in business, her true breakthrough into the Indian mainstream occurred in 2018 when she was crowned Miss Asia Tourism Universe in Lebanon. Her popularity surged even further in 2025 when she entered the Bigg Boss 19 house, becoming one of the most talked-about and meme-worthy contestants of the season.
Major Works & Projects
Tanya is the host of "The Tanya Mittal Show," a spiritual and motivational podcast where she interviews prominent figures. Her business, Handmade Love, specializes in luxury handbags, sarees, and customized gifts. In 2025, her stint in reality television solidified her as a household name in India.

She maintains a high-end lifestyle, often traveling to destinations like Dubai and Lebanon for work and leisure.
Controversies & Criticism
Tanya has faced significant trolling for her "delusional" claims on Bigg Boss, including her statement of having 150 bodyguards and 800 staff members. Critics often question the authenticity of her wealth, though she maintains that her "Boss" persona is a result of her hard-earned success. She was also involved in a viral controversy during the Maha Kumbh stampede which she narrated in a viral video.
