Today marks the last day without wildcards in the Bigg Boss Telugu 8 house. By tomorrow, eight former contestants will re-enter the house, amping up the excitement.
Host Nagarjuna reprimanded Nagamanikanta, criticizing him for seeking sympathy without shedding a tear. The rest of the housemates joined in, encouraging Mani to let go of sympathy tactics.
The “Sympathy” Lecture and Mani’s Tears
Nagarjuna firmly told Manikanta he needed to stop seeking sympathy, stating, “No matter how much it hurts, you can cry now but not later.” However, Mani struggled to express his emotions.
His fellow housemates seized the opportunity to motivate him, with Vishnupriya and Prithvi calling him selfish. Nagarjuna also teased Vishnupriya, asking if she could show some fire in the game.
In a moment of vulnerability, Yashmi revealed her secret from college a tattoo symbolizing a past love. She confessed her disappointment upon learning that the letters, meant to be a couple’s initials in Chinese, had no real meaning. She felt comforted by her father’s message of pride and encouragement, shared by Nagarjuna.
Rising Tensions
Meanwhile, house dynamics grew tense as Prithvi and Prerna suspected jealousy from Sita, while Nikhil called Mani cunning and Nainika labeled him toxic.
Manikanta tearfully stated he didn’t want to judge others but expressed irritation with Prerana’s actions in the kitchen. Nikhil and Nabeel were saved from nominations, adding relief to the mix.
In a twist, recently evicted contestant Aditya returned to bid farewell, celebrating his birthday with hugs for some and playful punches for others, including Yashmi, Nainika, Sita, and Nagamanikanta. Aditya urged Mani to avoid conflict for a week before leaving the house.
