Jagadish Jagga’s Family Sets the Record Straight on His ‘Mummy’ Claim in Bigg Boss Kannada 13

When Jagadish “Jagga” stepped into the Bigg Boss Kannada house, the cameras caught more than just his game‑play – they caught a confession. In a candid chat with co‑contestant Sonika, Jagga said he didn’t have a wife and that his daughter was growing up without a mother. The statement, which quickly went viral, left fans scratching their heads.

Enter Raju, Jagga’s elder brother, who decided to clear the fog on a YouTube interview. He laughed that Jagga had actually told the family he’d be out for work and would return late, only dropping the Bigg Boss news two days before the premiere. "We were surprised," Raju admitted, "but we didn’t get a call after they left for the house."

According to Raju, the truth is a bit more conventional: Jagga is married to their sister’s daughter, Sanjana. She’s staying with her grandmother for now, but keeps up with the show every night. "Every household has its little spats," Raju said, "ours is no different." He confirmed that Jagga does have a daughter – sweet‑named Tanvi – who is indeed living with her mother.

Money for votes? Not a chance. Raju shared that the family, while thrilled to see Jagga on screen, doesn’t believe in buying votes. "We just hope people cheer for him because they like him, not because they’re paid," he explained, adding that they’re praying for his stay till the very end.

On a more serious note, Raju gave an update on their mother’s health. She suffered a mild stroke after her blood pressure spiked a few days ago. Thanks to prompt medical care, she’s on the mend and recovering well, which brought a sigh of relief to the whole family.

There were also some practical hiccups – like the wardrobe issue. Jagga apparently packed his own clothes before leaving, and his friends are now handling his outfits for the show. He even left his phone with them. Raju guessed Jagga might have complained about not receiving fresh clothes because he saw other contestants sporting new outfits in the first week.

And the dream? Raju is sure his brother will bring the coveted trophy home. He recalled host Sudeep’s words on day one: “Say you’re the winner.” Those words, according to Raju, have stuck with Jagga and fuel his confidence.

So, while the “no‑wife” claim made headlines, the family’s side of the story paints a picture of a married man, a doting brother, a recovering mother, and a hopeful contestant ready to give his all for the prize.
