Prakash Kumar, more popularly known as Puneet Superstar, is an Indian social media sensation who has carved a niche for himself as a comedian. With his videos ruling the digital realm, he fearlessly stepped into the ring of Jio Cinema’s reality digital extravaganza, Bigg Boss OTT Season 2, in 2023. He was removed from the game in less than 24 hours, owing to bad behaviour and damaging property.
After his exit, Puneet experienced an overwhelming surge in popularity. Within a remarkably short span, his follower count on Instagram skyrocketed from 300K to an impressive 1.9 million, symbolizing the tremendous support showered upon him. The public’s demand for Puneet’s return is fueled by their perception that his presence brought drama to the house. However, the housemates strongly opposed his comeback, leading to their collective decision to vote him out. Let’s know more about what led to this decision.
Who Is Puneet Superstar?
While Puneet Superstar isn’t his given name, he answers to Prakash Kumar, a 31-year-old born in Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh, to a middle-class family. He embarked on his journey as a YouTuber in 2022, defying limited resources with unrivalled determination. He is widely recognized for his side-splitting social media videos, which are easily recognizable for his sharp wit and humorous banter.
His journey into the social media realm started with lip-sync videos on TikTok, as a recommendation by his cousin. Puneet faced setbacks but continued uploading videos, undeterred. With his consistent dedication, he’s earned the title of ‘Lord Puneet Superstar’ – a title given to him by his audience. He proves that he has an extensive understanding of how to captivate an audience and keep them loyal.
His Performance In Bigg Boss OTT S2
Puneet Superstar’s journey in Bigg Boss OTT Season 2 was a rollercoaster ride of fame, humour, and unexpected chaos. His initial moments in the house took an unforeseen turn when his presence caused massive chaos in the first episode. Despite multiple warnings from Bigg Boss, he smeared toothpaste on himself, poured floor cleaner on his head, tried to damage the cameras, and allegedly, even left skid marks on the toilet seat.

All the frustration in the house made Bigg Boss ask the contestants if they wanted to keep Puneet around. Sadly, most of them voted against it, so Puneet was kicked out of the house. Despite his short-lived stint, Puneet’s unforgettable impact and his signature brand of humour left a mark on the Bigg Boss OTT 2 season. The real drama started after his eviction though. On a social media live stream, he made shocking statements about Salman Khan’s love life and slammed MC Stan who was one of the panellists on the show.
Would He Be Back?
Seeing the internet’s demands to bring him back, we have a reason to believe that his re-entry is inevitable. If the rumour mill is to be believed, TellyChakkar has reported that Puneet might be returning to the show as a wild card contestant as many fan clubs suggest that he has been staying in a hotel room near the Bigg Boss OTT set.
A Twitter account that provides inside information about the Bigg Boss house also shared this insight. The tweet reads,”EXCLUSIVE. It is confirmed that PuneetSuper is coming back to #BiggBoss house. Source @Shounok_Ghosh #PuneetSuperstar #BiggBossOTT #BiggBossOTT2.” Check out the post below:

What Do We Think About Puneet Superstar?
Well, the housemates made it quite evident that they didn’t want him to return, thus, their decision to vote him out. It will be interesting to see the contestants’ reactions to his re-entry and the following changes that unfold in the game. It is the drama we need and expect from Bigg Boss OTT Season 2. You hear us, producers? We need the Lord back!
On another note, I’d like to give a special mention to the other two content creators who are killing it on Bigg Boss OTT Season 2. Manisha Rani has courageously shared her life struggles, forging a deep emotional bond with the viewers and earning their support and admiration. In a recent episode, she spoke of running away from home to pursue her passion for dance against her father’s wishes. Her heartfelt story resonated with the audience, evoking their empathy.
Fukra Insaan i.e. Abhishek has usually exhibited a composed demeanor within the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house. Not only that, but he has also adeptly responded to those who aim to undermine him without any valid justification. It is no wonder that the first Boss of the Week was given to Abhishek Malhan. We couldn’t be more excited rooting for a content creator to win the show itself! What a win it would be for the industry itself.
Verdict: If Rumors Are To Be Believed, Hell Ya!
Puneet Superstar has left a deep mark with his antics on Bigg Boss OTT Season 2. While his initial elimination was met with mixed reactions, his fan following cannot be denied. As for the question of his potential return as a wild card, only time will tell if Puneet Superstar will make a dramatic comeback, adding a new twist to the ongoing season. We eagerly anticipate this possibility, and are ready to witness the fresh drama that he could bring to the Bigg Boss OTT 2 house!
