Bigg Boss Telugu Season 10 launched with the tagline “Not a challenge in the game… the game itself is a challenge,” introducing a new format to the competition. Within the first week, unexpected eliminations have created controversy surrounding the voting mechanism and decision-making process.
Bigg Boss Telugu Season 10 New Format Details
The season features the division of housemates into two groups, with inter-group competitions determining who enters the high-risk zone. The format grants housemates significant authority in elimination decisions. Temper Shiva, Rohith Nayudu, and Ram Prasad secured permanent housemate status through task performance.
Week One Eliminations
Two contestants have been eliminated within the first week:
- Charan (commoner/housemate) was eliminated from the high-risk zone
- Chaithra Roy was voted out by high-risk zone members Sudheer and Aman Masood
Additional housemates currently in the high-risk zone include Sudheer and Aman Masood.
Controversy: Voting System Undermined
Social media discussion centers on a critical issue: the elimination process prioritizes housemate votes over viewer votes. Viewers cast daily votes for their preferred contestants, yet these votes hold no weight in elimination decisions. The show collects votes from the public while rendering them meaningless in the actual elimination process.
Viewer Response
Netizens question the legitimacy of collecting votes if they will not influence outcomes. The contradiction between vote collection and vote implementation has generated substantial viewer dissatisfaction across social media platforms. Questions remain regarding the fairness and purpose of the voting system in this season’s format.
