With just one day left for the “Bigg Boss Telugu 5” finale, the contestants from previous seasons are said to be prepping up for a conversation with this year’s finalists and also to roast them, albeit gently.

Those who are scheduled to appear in the finale show are actor Hari Teja, Season 1 runner-up, actress Geetha Madhuri, Season 2 runner up, Telugu rapper Roll Rida, another Season 2 contestant, and actor Akhil Sarthak, Season 4 runner-up.

It is reported that the four will have a video interaction with the finalists and maybe even mildly roast them.

The producers have also planned for a fake elimination in Friday’s episode, as they put Siri in a secret room for a couple of hours, just to see the reactions of the other finalists. The latest promo put out by the reality show’s makers hints at it.

VJ Sunny, Singer Sreeram Chandra, Actor Manas, and YouTubers Shanmukh and Siri are the five contestants left in the fray. The grand finale is on Sunday. Host Nagarjuna will reveal the winner, who will be decided by popular vote.

It was earlier reported that ‘RRR’ actors Ram Charan and Alia Bhatt are to appear on the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ for the grand finale.

Now that the makers have managed to bring SS Rajamouli to the show as well, the hype around the grand finale has nearly doubled.

It is reported that Ram Charan, Alia Bhatt, and Rajamouli will promote their upcoming big venture ‘RRR’ during ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’s grand finale.

The trio will also have a small talk with the finalists before they play the theatrical trailer of ‘RRR’ on the show.

Also, as Nagarjuna has bought the Telugu rights of Ranvir Singh and Deepika Padukone’s ’83’, the duo will appear on the show as well.

The contestants will be able to interact with Deepika and Ranvir as they promote their sports drama.

‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ producers are making the necessary arrangements to accommodate guests in some crucial announcements about the season’s finalists.

Sunny, Shanmukh, Sreerama Chandra, Manas, and Siri are in the top-5 lists to win the title for the season. The grand finale will unveil the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ winner on Sunday.

As the makers set the stage for the grand finale of ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’, top-5 contenders seem to be bored of staying still in the house.

They were all seen passing time playing hide and seek, rock-paper-scissors, and other silly games in ‘Bigg Boss’ house.

The makers who wanted to keep the contenders involved had asked the contestants to play the games so as to recall their previous tasks on the show.

In order to recall their memories, the contestants had participated in the tasks, which were supposed to be played in a fun way.

Shanmukh Jaswanth, who cheated in one of the games, had won the most number of games. During one of the games, VJ Sunny and Siri started fighting over petty issues.

Though Sunny apologised, Siri was not in a mood to mingle with him, as she is seen skipping the meal too.

Sunny and Siri, who gave a tough fight to the other contestants on the show, are seen fighting for small-big reasons. Even by the end of the show, the duo has irked the audience with their meaningless quarrels.

“The season is over. Siri and Sunny will remain enemies all their life”, one comment reads, while the other says, “Keeping right or wrong aside, Sunny and Siri must realize this is the best time in their journey.”

VJ Sunny, Manas, Sreerama Chandra, Sunny, and Siri are the finalists, who are in the race to win the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ title.

Shanmukh Jaswanth, who was shown his ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ journey, seems to have become quite emotional at times.

As the finale is round the corner, the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ finalists were seen playing hide and seek, and other silly games in the house.

Only five contestants are left on the show, and they seem to be enjoying their stay in the ‘Bigg Boss’ house to the fullest. But, for Shanmukh, it is always about proving himself right, as in the unseen episodes.

In one of the unseen episodes, Shanmukh is seen taunting Siri for no reason. He even went further to insult Siri’s boyfriend.

“Go and tell to you Chotu (Siri’s boyfriend) that this is what is happening on this show. While I am protecting you by taking a stand for you, your boyfriend comes here to place others in the top-5 list. When you go out, tell him about these things,” Shanmukh is seen shouting at Siri.

Earlier, during one of the episodes, Siri’s boyfriend Srihan was invited to the stage, along with host Nagarjuna.

On being quizzed about who his top-5 favourites are, Srihan took the names of VJ Sunny, Ravi, Manas, Siri, and Sreeram.

So, Shanmukh took this topic out of nowhere to blame Siri and insult her boyfriend.

This is not the first time that Shanmukh has dragged Siri’s family members on the show.

Earlier, he had insulted Siri’s mom for her message during the family reunion episodes.

Even during the final episodes, where all the finalists have been enjoying their final moments on the show, Shanmukh’s continuous rants have caused much damage to his game, which might reflect in his voting percentages in the Grand Finale.

With just a couple of days left for the grand finale of ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’, the makers took the contestants back in time as they recounted their respective journeys on the show.

On watching their journeys, the finalists of ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ had an emotional ride.

Singer Sreerama Chandra, who watched his video, got emotional. As the makers had shown him his game, he was also appreciated by ‘Bigg Boss’ for his performance.

The unseen episodes on Sreeram showed that he is quite upset about his ‘Bigg Boss’ journey.

“I am being portrayed as a ‘lone ranger’. It was also mentioned that whoever comes closer to me gets eliminated. I doubt if these tags are being conveyed in the other way,” Sreeram said, as he spoke to the cameras.

The singer seems to have lost his confidence after watching his own journey. Sreeram said, “I wanted to show my fun angle. But, my journey looks like I have always been serious.”

“I am worried about how things have gone. My circumstances didn’t match the others, and hence I could not be the fun guy.”

These words from Sreerama have made it clear that he seems to be upset about his ‘Bigg Boss’ journey.

There is a huge chance that Sreerama Chandra will be on the top-3 list, as he has a huge fan following for his brainy games and entertainment on the show.

The grand finale is around as VJ Sunny, Manas, Sreerama Chandra, Siri, and Shanmukh are in the race to win the title of ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’.

Telugu’s biggest reality show hosted by Nagarjuna, ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’, is marching towards the finale, as there are only six contestants left in the house now.

VJ Sunny, Manas, Sree Rama Chandra, Kajal, Siri and Shanmukh are the top-six contestants for the season. With Sree Rama Chandra already in the finale, tension prevails among the contestants as to who would leave the house the coming weekend.

VJ Sunny, who rose to be a good performer in the current season, has gained much popularity, and the voting patterns are completely in favour of this actor. On the other hand, Manas, who is termed as the most mature guy of the season, seems to be safe, though his voting percentage is still very less when compared to Sunny.

Kajal, whose graph grew over time, seems to be in the danger zone, as per reports. Siri and Shanmukh, who were expected to be in the finale, have been inconsistent in the recent episodes. So, the duo’s votes seem to put them in the danger zone.

Shanmukh, who has garnered huge fandom for his webseries, was supposed to be in the top-3 list, but his recent behaviour on the show has put him in the line below bottom.

With this, it is clear that one among Siri, Kajal and Shanmukh might be shown the exit door in the coming eliminations.

Shanmukh Jaswanth, who became quite popular in the Telugu states with his back-to-back web series, is currently one of the top-6 contestants on ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’.

Despite his underperformance, his huge fanbase helped him reach the place where he is today.

As the finale is not far away, the viewers have been discussing a lot about the title winner for ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’. Shanmukh was labelled as one of the top contestants, until a few weeks ago. In recent times, though, the scenario has changed.

Now Shanmukh’s graph has fallen due to his recent behaviour on the show. According to social media trends and discussions, Shanmukh’s behaviour towards Kajal has been labelled as ‘arrogant’.

On the other hand, Shanmukh has been behaving disrespectfully with his so-called friend Siri. He is seen calling her ‘dumb’ in most of the episodes, while she is a better performer than him. Shanmukh is also seen controlling Siri as he keeps schooling her for small and big things.

In one of the recent conversations, Kajal, Manas, and Sunny tried to have fun, linking Siri. Siri, who was fine with the conversation, had a fun time as well. Shanmukh, who acted as if was asleep, started schooling Siri for encouraging talks with the other contestants.

Shanmukh is also known for his own assumptions, as he brainwashes Siri, and convinces her that he is the only person who is legit in the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ house.

“Siri needs to get out of this toxicity. She cannot even say her opinions in front of him, because he taunts her later”, one of the Internet users wrote.

While another wrote, “Avoid people like Shanmukh in your lives. They try to label others just to prove themselves right. OMG! He’s so manipulative.”

“I was considering him as a winner material. But, this guy turns out to be a manipulative guy. Let anyone win, but Shanmukh,” another fan wrote.

Dance master Anee and Anchor Ravi, who got eliminated from ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ in the recent eliminations, support Sreerama Chandra for the finale.

The two contestants were shown the exit in consecutive weeks during the elimination process. Now that their friend Sreerama Chandra is in the race to win the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ title, they extended their support through social media.

Singer Madhulika Pasumarti, who is a good friend of Sreerama Chandra hosted the live session.

Anee and Ravi had a chat about Sreerama Chandra’s game and appealed to their viewers to vote for him. They shared their ‘Bigg Boss’ journey with Sreerama and had called all his social media fans, to vote for him in the coming days, which would help him win the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ title.

Ravi said, “Sreerama Chandra is the most genuine person on the reality show. Though I could only connect with him after a few weeks, we had shared a great bond. Please vote for him and make him the winner of the season. Sreerama Chandra deserves to win ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’. I am voting for him.”

Speaking during the live session, Anee said, “Sreerama is one of the strongest contestants. I saw him getting emotional a couple of times in recent episodes. It just hurt me to see such a strong person break down like that. I am voting for him, praying and wishing he wins the title.”

While Sreerama Chandra appeared like an underdog in the recent episodes, his presence during one of the episodes became a huge hit.

Sreerama Chandra had injured his legs in one of the tasks, after which the makers had played the ‘Gelupu Thalupule’ song from the movie ‘Theenmaar’.

As soon as the singer heard his own voice in ‘Bigg Boss’ house, he was seen getting emotional. After this episode, his graph increased exponentially.

With only a couple of weeks away from ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ finale, the reality show has become more interesting with internal fights and back-to-back tasks.

The makers of ‘Bigg Boss’ announced a series of games for the contestants to win the ‘ticket to finale’.

While the tasks are to test the qualities like endurance, speed, focus, skill, and other qualities of the contestants, Priyanka, Shanmukh, and Kajal are already out of the game after three rounds.

With Siri, Sree Rama Chandra, Manas, and Sunny in the race, it is reported that two of the contestants have reached the final round to earn the ticket to the finale.

As per the latest reports, it is reported that Siri and Manas would compete with each other for the ticket to the finale in the upcoming episodes. With Kajal, Priyanka, Siri, and Manas are expected to be in the danger zone, the viewers are curious about who among them would make it to the finale, along with the other top four contestants.

Social media pages and trends are filled with polls and discussions regarding the same.

As per the voting patterns and trending social media topic, Sree Rama Chandra and VJ Sunny have earned good numbers from the official voting polls, while Siri and Manas seem to have similar voting percentages.

Kajal and Priyanka Singh might be the ones, who would face a threat in the eliminations in the coming days.

‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ is one of the most-watched Television shows of recent times. With only eight inmates left in ‘Bigg Boss’ house, the viewers have started discussions about the probabilities on which of the five members would reach the next level.

As Manas wins immunity by becoming the captain of the house, all the other inmates are in the nominations this week. While VJ Sunny, Singer Sree Rama Chandra, Anchor Ravi, Shanmukh, and RJ Kajal are in the safe zone, Siri and Priyanka are staggering behind in the votings, as per the sources.

In this frame of context, it is believed that the makers might bring in the topic of the eviction-free pass to save any of the two who will fall in the danger zone in the upcoming eliminations. As Sunny has earned the special power by performing well in the tasks, his fans and the viewers want him to save the power (eviction-free pass) for himself rather than using it in the favour of others.

While the current episodes have the family members’ reunion, it has been an emotional week for the contestants. While Manas’ mom was in the ‘Bigg Boss’ house on Thursday, Sree Rama Chandra’s sister visited the house too.

Siri’s mother, who appeared on the show as a part of the reunion episode, had warned her daughter of the unwanted intimacy with Shanmukh, which had drawn much negativity to the upcoming actress. Saturday’s episode is to have Sunny’s mom and Ravi’s family in ‘Bigg Boss’ house, as the reunion turns to be quite an emotional one.

The latest evictions in ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ resulted in Anne’s elimination from the show. Anee’s elimination has shocked the inmates as well as her fans, as she was marked as one of the strongest contestants of the season.

Anee, who had been disrespectful with some of the contestants was warned by her inmates, which she conveniently let go of during her stay in ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’. Even after her eviction, Anee seems to be carrying the hatred of RJ Kajal, as she is the one who got into the limelight during these fights on the show.

In one of the recent Instagram stories, Anee schooled the viewers, that she played her game. “When people do not have a problem with Sunny, who bursts out on women, I do not understand why my dance is being targeted so much. Whatever, please stop abusing contestants who are against your favourite players”, Anne said.

Anee also mentioned that she had a conversation with Anchor Ravi’s wife. “I spoke to Ravi’s wife Nithya. She told me that Sunny’s fans are abusing their daughter. A five-year-old! Please use your values. Stop targeting a kid”, Anne said in anguish.

Anee’s words do count, as online bullying has no limits, and it is never acceptable to bully anyone. But, Anee has not realised that she did the same bullying while on the show. Kajal indicated that she has been hurt, but Anee turned a deaf ear then. As she is out now, she has started preaching, many say.

The upcoming nominations episode of ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ is to be telecast on Monday and with Anee’s exit, the housemates seem to have become even more tense.

Each passing day on the show has been a tough nut to crack, as the contestants seem to be exhausted with non-stop tasks.

The latest promos by ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ makers seem to be full of drama, as Monday’s episode is to bring in intense gaming and the nomination process, like always. One of the promos hints at a verbal war between Sree Rama Chandra and Kajal, while Sunny interferes. Siri and Priyanka also seem to have a clash, going by the promo.

The makers have set up pots, with each contestant’s name on them. The inmates must nominate two of the house members. The pots with the nominated contestants are to be broken by the one who nominates.

As per the reports, all of the contestants except the captain are to get nominated in the coming episode. Manas, who is the captain of the house, has immunity against nominations and hence is safe for the week. Sunny, Kajal, Siri, Shanmukh, Priyanka, Ravi, and Sree Rama Chandra are going to be in the nominations for the upcoming elimination process.

Going by the social media trends and voting patterns, RJ Kajal has got a grip over the voting, while Ravi and Sree Rama Chandra fail to appeal to the Telugu audience. VJ Sunny, Manas, and Shanmukh are doing well, as the trends are in their favour.

Siri and Priyanka have a lesser impact on the game, and they are likely to be in the danger zone this week.

‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5′ contestants are familiar with Priyanka Singh’s game plan. She has survived only with the help of the relationships she built on the show.

Being a transgender, Priyanka wants to prove herself to the world. Well, Priyanka a.k.a Pinky is portraying herself as an innocent, but has a deceptive nature.

Pinky appears to be Manas’ best friend and portrays herself as if she likes him. In reality, she is only following Ravi, who has been making her do things in their favour. A recent video where Ravi makes a signal to Pinky, as she starts diverting Manas, has gone viral.

In one of the unseen videos, Manas and Ravi are in a race to grab the helmet, in order to go further in the captaincy task. While Manas is trying to focus on the game, Ravi is seen signalling Pinky. Pinky, then starts to disturb Manas, so that he loses his concentration and Ravi could grab the helmet.

But, Manas, being a strong player, did not lose focus and won the helmet to proceed on with the captaincy task.

This video makes it clear that Pinky is just helping no one but Ravi, under the mask. ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ viewers are shocked, as they were under the impression that Pinky is a genuine player, though she is not a strong contender.

Earlier, in one of the captaincy tasks, Priyanka had intentionally spoiled Sunny’s brick tower twice and acted innocent when questioned by him. With all these ‘masked’ people around them, Manas, Sunny, and Kajal are targeted every time, as per the opinions of the show’s followers.

‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ has been consistent in providing viral content to the audience. With multiple groups and non-stop tasks, the ‘Bigg Boss’ house has become like a pressure cooker.

Also, the emerging of the newest love track between the so-called friends has become a cringe show for the viewers.

Siri and Shanmukh, who has been wearing a mask of friends, as slowly starting a love track. With their constant hugs and kisses, the show has become a cringe show for the family audience in the Telugu states. Siri and Shanmukh caught up in a silly fight, after which Siri locked herself in the bathroom and started hitting herself.

The duo who had named their relationship ‘friendship’, is slowly trying to twist it into a love affair. While Siri and Shannu were spotted together all the time, they are usually seen hugging, pampering, or kissing each other. But, in the last episode, Shanmukh had shared with Sree Ramachandra that he is emotionally attached to Siri, while he is still committed to other relationship outside the reality show. These discussions and sudden flips about the duo’s relationship are not well-received by the audience.

Multiple love tracks and public displays of love are irrelevant in the context of the Telugu audience. Also both Siri and Shanmukh have different lives with respective lovers outside the house, these actions are just not accepted well by the audience.

Some of the viewers also want Siri to get eliminated from the show, as she caused self-harm, which has become a mental disturbance to the other contestants as well. Well, the makers need to take a call, as in such reality shows self-harm is offensive and can land the contestant into big trouble.

With Jessie’s exit from the show, there are only nine inmates remaining in the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ house.

RJ Kajal, Anne Master, Priyanka Singh, Siri Hanumanth, anchor Ravi, singer Sree Rama Chandra, Shanmukh, VJ Sunny, and Manas are the contestants who are in the race to win the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ title.

While there is anticipation about the upcoming nominations, it is reported that eight of the housemates are in the danger zone. As Ravi is the captain of the ‘Bigg Boss Telugu 5’ house now, he cannot be nominated this week. So, the inmates nominate two of their fellow contestants for the filtration process this week.

Except for Ravi, the current captain of the house, all the other contestants RJ Kajal, Anne Master, Priyanka Singh, Siri Hanumanth, Sree Rama Chandra, Shanmukh, VJ Sunny, and Manas are nominated, which is to be unveiled in Monday’s episode.

While there are only eight contestants left in the house, the show is proceeding towards the finale. As the contestants are being eliminated one-by-one, the inmates are under heavy pressure, so as to survive in the house. Hosted by Nagarjuna, this season appears to be a little biased. Only one group of contestants are constantly being targeted by the other inmates, for which the host is not being able to judge properly.

The weekend episodes had Nagarjuna target a couple of contestants even though he could have addressed bigger bullies in the house, which irked the audience to some extent.
