Apoorva’s journey in the house concluded after she received insufficient audience support. Her elimination left Jhansi emotional, as she struggled to say goodbye to her friend.
After reaching the stage, Apoorva watched her journey video and became emotional. She also recalled her father’s advice before entering the house, saying that he had asked her to protect the family’s reputation. Apoorva expressed confidence that she had lived up to his expectations.
Apoorva’s Bitter Truths Leave Housemates Thinking
After her eviction, Nagarjuna asked Apoorva to share her honest opinions about the remaining contestants through the Bitter Shots segment.
Apoorva advised Rohith not to underestimate others or become overconfident about his game. She felt that Ram Prasad was allowing personal relationships to influence his decisions and suggested that he should play more fairly.
She also told Shalini to focus on her individual performance instead of getting caught up in other people’s issues. Apoorva advised Sudheer to avoid being influenced by others and encouraged Aman to accept his mistakes when necessary.
One of the lighter moments came when Apoorva commented that Rohith and Shalini seemed made for each other. Her playful remark left the housemates laughing, while Rohith and Shalini appeared embarrassed.
Shiv Kumar Enters as a Wild Card Contestant
Shiv Kumar made his entry into the Bigg Boss house as a wild card contestant, carrying Rs. 2 lakh with him. During his introduction, he openly shared his opinions about the existing contestants, particularly Shalini and Charan.
Shiv felt that Shalini appeared more focused on Rohith than on winning the Bigg Boss trophy. He also told Charan that although he had impressed viewers during Agnipariksha, his performance in the Bigg Boss house had not met expectations.
Shiv handed danger-zone badges to Naresh and Mukesh before choosing Trigun for a competition to win his power.
However, Trigun performed strongly and defeated Shiv in the task. As a result, Shiv’s Rs. 2 lakh was added to the prize money. The victory gave the original contestants an early advantage over the new arrivals.
Dakshi Challenges Naresh but Fails to Win
Dakshi entered the house as another wild card contestant and spoke about her personal struggles, crediting her mother for raising her despite difficult circumstances. She also expressed disappointment that she had not received the recognition she hoped for in the entertainment industry.
Dakshi criticized Shalini’s gameplay and accused Naresh of failing to entertain the audience. She then selected Naresh for a task to compete for his power.
Naresh performed confidently and completed the challenge successfully. Although Dakshi struggled to finish the task, Naresh maintained his lead and secured the victory.
His win added another Rs. 2 lakh to the prize money. As a consequence of losing the competition, Dakshi was assigned the duty of washing utensils.
Neethu Nataraj’s Entry Sparks a Clash With Shalini
Neethu Nataraj made a dramatic wild card entry, showcasing her dancing skills and sword-fighting abilities on stage. She then shared her views about the housemates, openly questioning Shalini’s gameplay.
Neethu accused Shalini of relying too much on Rohith and challenged her to demonstrate her individual strengths. She also criticized Vamsi for spending too much time in the kitchen and reacting loudly without making a significant impact on the game.
Shalini responded by telling Neethu to enter the house and prove herself through her performance.
Neethu subsequently competed against Trigun in a task, with Naresh acting as the sanchalak. Neethu won the challenge and secured Trigun’s power.
Her victory became another significant moment in the episode. Nagarjuna congratulated Neethu and playfully reminded Shalini of her earlier claims that she would assess Neethu’s game after she entered the house.

Swetha described Shalini’s approach as overly aggressive and suggested that she would prefer to lower her own voice rather than engage in unnecessary arguments.
She handed badges to Rohith and Naresh before choosing Vamsi for her task. However, Vamsi emerged victorious, adding another win for the original contestants.
The new arrivals’ repeated criticism of Shalini made her gameplay one of the major talking points of the episode.
Ramakrishna Questions Rohith and Shalini’s Strategy
Ramakrishna entered the house as another wild card contestant and immediately shared his observations about the existing players.
He felt that Rohith was not displaying the same level of intensity that he had shown during Agnipariksha. He also suggested that Shalini appeared more focused on Rohith than on pursuing the Bigg Boss trophy herself.
Before Ramakrishna’s task, Nagarjuna addressed the danger-zone situation involving Shalini and Charan. The existing contestants were asked to vote for the person they wanted to keep in the house.
Shalini received 10 out of 11 votes, while Aman was the only contestant who voted for Charan. When questioned about his decision, Aman explained that he had expected Charan might otherwise receive no votes.
The voting results created another tense moment and highlighted the differences in opinion among the housemates.
Ram Prasad Defeats Ramakrishna in the Final Task
The episode also featured a competition between Ram Prasad and Ramakrishna, with Aman serving as the sanchalak.
Ram Prasad won the task, resulting in another Rs. 2 lakh being added to the prize money. His victory continued the original contestants’ strong performance against the incoming wild cards.
The repeated wins suggested that the experienced housemates were determined to protect their advantages and recover the money lost earlier in the season.

The wild card contestants entered the house carrying money that could potentially be added to the grand prize.
