YouTuber Armaan Malik is already among the top contenders on Bigg Boss OTT 3.

He entered the house with his two wives, Payal and Kritika, and became a part of everyone's conversations.

While Payal got evicted -- and shared just what made her accept his second marriage -- Armaan still enjoys a fan following on social media.

Just what are the trio like in real life? Namrata Thakker takes a closer look.

With 7.73 million subscribers on his channel, Armaan Malik is one of the most popular YouTubers in India. He is equally popular on Instagram with 4.1 million followers.

Armaan's real name is Sandeep Singh. He married Payal in 2011. In 2018, he got married again, this time to Payal's best friend, Kritika.

Though Armaan lives happily with his two wives, he's been married thrice. Payal reveals in an interview that the YouTuber first got married when he was a minor, and that it's a common practice in Haryana for people to get married under the age of 18.

Armaan ran away from his home in Haryana after he failed in Class 8 twice. He returned home after four days and started working as a mechanic as he loved cars and didn't want to study.

Malik was only 19 when he lost his parents. He came to Delhi with just Rs 2,000 in his pocket.

He met Payal, who worked in a bank and the two fell in love and got married. The couple briefly separated when Kritika came into the picture.

But the three eventually reconciled and now live together with their four children in Zirakpur, Chandigarh.
