There are only seven days left for the Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 Finale, and the house is throbbing with unexpected turns of events. After Rithu Chowdary's ejection, fans can't wait to know what will happen to the final contestants — and today's preview has confirmed that the twist will come from the surprise of Bharani’s becoming captain and Sanjana being sent to jail.
So let's analyze the promo with the drama exposed.
Today's Highlights From Bigg Boss
Bharani shows up with a captain's band.
Sanjana is sent to jail by the housemates.
Bigg Boss introduces six mystery boxes with points each.
The finalists are to determine the values of each other in terms of points.
Whirl of confusion regarding the situation that led to Bharani getting a chance to be a captain.
How Did Bharani Get the Captaincy
The biggest surprise in today’s promotional video is Bharani now wearing the captain's band, although to Reddy’s and fans’ dismay, the captaincy for Season 9 had officially ended the previous week with Kalyan Padala being the last captain.
This totally bewildered the audience — but there’s more to it:
Bharani is the only participant who was never appointed the captain this season.
So he is reportedly given a chance of a special captaincy by Bigg Boss, but without the immunity clause.
This happens to be the hardest week for Bharani who has been keeping himself in a corner for fear of breaking his promise to his little girl. He has been getting support from the fans all along and now they feel happy that he is being acknowledged at last.
The Game-Changer: Six Boxes with Six Point Values
The promo has also hinted at another twist of fortune:
Bigg Boss has two fronts — "Ticket Counter" and "This Isn’t Fair, Bigg Boss" — along with six boxes, each containing definite points.
Bigg Boss addresses the contestants:
“Every one of you has left your imprint on this journey. The value of your contribution is signified by these points. The points that you allocate to others will have a direct effect on the final stage of this contest.”
What it comes down to is that the inmates have to assess each other’s value, and this is the plot twist that is likely to rewrite relationships.
Who Got How Many Points?
The points allocated have been tabulated as follows:
Contestant Points Awarded
Immanuel 2,50,000
Tanuja 2,00,000
Demon 1,50,000
Bharani 1,00,000
Suman 50,000
Sanjana 0
Sanjana was the only one who got no points at all and this was a unanimous decision of the housemates.
Why Did the Housemates Decide Sanjana Should Be Imprisoned?
The housemates, as a group, decided to condemn Sanjana to jail for having scored no points which was a real blow to her morale, especially with the final event so near.
She countered that the motive of the others was just ‘safety’ and that there was only a desire for the highest score (2,50,000) which was the main consideration.
What Will The Points Be Used For?
Bigg Boss has not told anything yet about the final destination of these points but the audience is guessing:
Finalists get extra perks
Fast track to the final
Immunity-like advantages
Or, direct result in who gets to be a finalist
Eager anticipation now focuses on the next episode to discover the manner in which Bigg Boss applies these points in the last phase of the game.
