"Thank you my dear friends, who pushed me to this trophy. Thank you for believing in me when no one stood by my side. I dedicate this trophy to my friends.." said Akhil Marar.
Viewers were on the edge of their seats during Cerena Ann Johnson's eviction on the previous episode of the programme. The top five contestants who would be battling for the coveted crown were then announced by host Mohanlal.
In this season of Bigg Boss, Akhil was hailed by viewers as a total entertainer. Even after the programme has been on the air for sixty days, it was clear that Akhil Marar would win this season since he had managed to advance in the games and challenges of Bigg Boss. Fans were solely concerned about Akhil's potential expulsion because of his out-of-control actions. There were claims of physical violence and indecency against him. However, Marar evolved into a matchmaker who eventually apologised for those problems and continued. This time, Akhil Marar was the centre of attention. It is notable that Akhil had the support of the former candidates.
In 2015, Akhil made his directorial debut as an assistant director with the Malayalam film Perariyathavar. In 2021, he directed the Malayalam film 'Oru Thathwika Avalokanam', a comedy political satire.
