Bigg Boss 9 Telugu Finale Voting Guide: Missed Call Numbers Inside
Bigg Boss Season 9 finale voting heats up as missed call votes dominate rural areas. Check contestant-wise missed call numbers and voting details before the grand finale.
Bigg Boss 9 Finale: Missed Call Numbers Revealed
The process of declaring the victor of Bigg Boss Season 9 has come down to the wire. Just three days before the contest closes, fans from every nook and corner of the state are doing everything they can to see their favorite contestant through to the grand finale that is set to take place on Sunday, December 21.
Although the official winner will be revealed at the end of the show, voting has already started and is expected to be very busy until midnight on Friday, December 19. It is going to be a very close contest between the Top 5 contestants - Kalyan Padala, Tanuja, Emmanuel, Demon Pawan, and Sanjana - who are fighting each other vigorously for the trophy.
Two Voting Methods: Hotstar and Missed Calls
The voting process this season has two major modes of operation:
- Disney+ Hotstar app voting
- Missed call voting
The Hotstar app is the main channel for urban users, whereas missed call voting has become a stronghold in rural regions with lesser app usage, garnering a substantial number of votes coming from missed calls. Therefore, the missed call votes are a significant factor in the determining of the winner.
In the past seasons, users were allowed the privilege to cast 10 votes each, a range that often led to confusion and accusations of ballot-stuffing. To prevent such unfairness, the producers stopped the practice from Season 7 onwards, allowing each user only one vote.
Missed Call Numbers of Bigg Boss Season 9 - Top 5 Contestants
Fans can assist their preferred contestant by providing a missed call at the number given below:
- Kalyan Padala: 8886650455
- Tanuja: 8886650464
- Emmanuel: 8886650452
- Demon Pawan: 8886650451
- Sanjana: 8886650460
Every missed call gets counted, and the total is then forwarded to Hotstar, which will put together the poll outcome for the Season 9 winner.
Contest Drives at Full Power
With the end of the season less than a week away, public relations teams, fan clubs, supporters, caste groups, and community organizations not only arrange the campaigns but also turn the voters' mind towards the contestant of their choice. As the deadlines approach, the use of social media, WhatsApp groups, and ground-level mobilization all become more and more widespread.
Doubt Over the Missed Call Voting Process
Missed call voting has never been without its controversies in previous seasons though it has become quite popular. Viewers had previously complained that despite trying repeatedly, some phone numbers remained busy which fueled suspicion and criticism. However, the officials did say that such things are quite common and happen when there is heavy call traffic when several thousand calls are hitting the same number simultaneously.
As the grand finale gets closer and closer, even the smallest vote has the power to make a big difference. Fans have only a few days left to express their opinion and determine who will be the Bigg Boss Season 9 winner.
