Aneesh Tharayil

Aneesh Tharayil is a multi-faceted Indian television personality, writer, and agriculturist who gained widespread recognition as a contestant on Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 7 in 2025. Hailing from Kodannur in Thrissur, Kerala, Aneesh built a reputation for his diverse professional background and his commitment to his personal passions. Before entering the limelight, he worked in the banking sector and later secured a government job. In a notable demonstration of his dedication to his dreams, he took a five-year leave of absence from his secure government position to prepare for and participate in the reality television circuit.

His journey into the public eye began with appearances on television programs such as the popular quiz-based show Sell Me The Answer, hosted by actor Mukesh. However, his major breakthrough came when he won the "myG Future Contestant" commoner audition, which earned him a spot in the seventh season of Bigg Boss Malayalam. Upon entering the house, Aneesh established several milestones: he was the first contestant to step into the season, the first male commoner in the show's history, and the season's inaugural captain. His participation was defined by his outspoken nature and his willingness to address social issues, particularly regarding the experiences of men in legal and social systems.

Beyond his television career, Aneesh is a dedicated cultivator and writer. He is the author of the published book "En Neram Thuzhanju," which showcases his literary interests and creative depth. His dual identity as a "writer-farmer" (Ezhuthukaran and Karshakan) resonates strongly with his audience, as he often shares insights into his rural lifestyle and agricultural endeavors. In the digital space, his authentic personality and journey from a common man to a television star have garnered him a significant following, where he continues to engage with fans by discussing his views on life and society.
