Bigg Boss 9 Telugu is gearing up for its grand finale, and the excitement is palpable as two contestants bid farewell this weekend. Suman Shetty and Bharani are evicted, narrowing the competition to five: Tanuja, Kalyan, Pavan, Sanjana, and Emanuel. Notably, commoners Kalyan and Pavan have made history by reaching the finale, boosting the chances of an underdog triumph.
Suman, once a top contender, and Bharani, a wild-card entrant, didn’t resonate with viewers enough to advance. Their departure follows last week’s unexpected elimination of Ritu Chowdhury, who was predicted to be in the top 5. Suman’s steady 14-week run was marked by minimal gameplay, making this twist a shocker for fans.
Six contestants were up for elimination this week: Bharani, Tanuja, Pavan, Sanjana, Emanuel, and Suman. Tanuja leads the vote with 26%, while Suman trailed at 6%. Here’s the voting split: Tanuja (26%), Bharani (20%), Pavan (19%), Sanjana (17%), Emanuel (14%), Suman (6%).
Online polls pointed to Suman’s exit (46%), followed by Sanjana (25%). But Bigg Boss is known for twists, last week, a strong player was eliminated, and Suman survived earlier expectations. The show’s management decides the outcome, not just votes, adding to the suspense. With the grand finale airing next Sunday, the remaining contestants are in for makeovers and vote appeals.
