Bigg Boss Telugu season 9: Week 10 elimination update

Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9, titled Ranarangam , kicked off on 7 September 2025 on Star Maa and JioHotstar. Hosted by Nagarjuna, this season introduces a fresh format with two houses , one for celebrities and another for commoners, making the gameplay more unpredictable. As the show approaches its Week 10 elimination, tensions are at an all-time high. There are eleven contestants still in the house, and strong rumours suggest that Divya Velamuri might be the one to go, though the final decision will only be revealed in the upcoming episode.

In a dramatic turn, nearly every contestant except for Captain Emmanuel has landed in the danger zone this week, including Bharani Shankar, Rithu Chowdhary, Gaurav Gupta, Nikhil Nair, Sanjana Galrani, Divya Velamuri, Thanuja Puttaswamy, Demon Pavan, Kalyan Padala and Suman Shetty. Within this tense setup, Thanuja has strengthened her position by becoming the BB Kingdom captain following a major task, giving her both authority and (at least temporary) safety. Meanwhile, the rumour mill around Divya’s possible eviction has grown louder. Many believe she may not have secured enough audience support. Her journey so far has been a mix of resilience and strategic play, making the rumoured exit especially startling, but it’s important to note that nothing is confirmed until the official vote result is announced.

The elimination will be based on votes cast via JioHotstar, where viewers could vote until 12 PM Friday, marking the close of this week’s window. Fans logged into their Hotstar accounts and used their daily vote allotment to support one or more of the nominated contestants. The platform does not display live voting percentages, meaning the final results remain unseen until Bigg Boss reveals them on the weekend episode. With the votes now locked, the fate of the nominees, especially Divya, is left hanging in suspense as viewers wait for the official verdict.
