This week on Bigg Boss Telugu, Nikhil, who held the chief position for four consecutive weeks, was absent from the game, while Yashmi took on the responsibility of managing the hotel task. Host Nagarjuna evaluated the contestants’ performances, separating the housemates into “Rising Stars” and “Falling Stars.”
Rising Stars Shine
During the Bigg Boss Hotel task, Avinash and Teja sneaked gulab jam, so Nagarjuna humorously sent a bowl of sweet treats specifically for them.
Nag labeled Gangavva, Mehboob, Avinash, Rohini, Nagamanikantha, Nayani, and Yashmi as the Rising Stars of the week, recognizing their strong gameplay.
Nag confronted Rohini, addressing Manikantha’s feelings. He also cautioned Vishnupriya, reminding her to take the game seriously or risk losing the audience’s interest.
Meanwhile, he praised Manikantha for his high energy and fun demeanor, noting his standout qualities.
Teja’s Punishment
Housemates named “Falling Stars” included Nabeel, Gautham, Vishnupriya, Yashmi, Prithvi, Nikhil, and Sita. Nag advised each, emphasizing direct communication for Nabeel and urging Gautham to stay present.
Teja received a light punishment of 10 pushups, as Nag felt her motivation fluctuated between “rising” and “falling.” Nag instructed contestants to place the bags of those they felt shouldn’t stay near the exit.
Teja, Prithvi, Hariteja, and others listed names, with Nikhil labeling Avinash as a weaker player, while others nominated contestants like Mani, Prerna, and Sita.
Ultimately, Prithvi, Teja, and Gautham received the most votes, packing their bags for the storeroom by the episode’s end.
This episode was filled with sharp evaluations, laughs, and a bit of soul-searching for the contestants, leaving them with much to think about as they head into the next week.
