Bigg Boss 9 Telugu Nominations Week 1
Nine names in the very first week, yep, the producers arrived with boxing gloves on this season! The Sunday night energy was wild as Nagarjuna himself (who’s still got enough swag to put any newbie to shame) announced the nominations, and you could actually feel the tension through the screen. Mr.RK (@RavikumarJSP) posted on Twitter that a total of nine members are in nomination this week.
Contestants nominated this week? Buckle up:
-
Thanuja Puttaswamy
-
Flora Saini (aka Asha Saini)
-
Rithu Chowdary
-
Emmanuel (Jabardasth Emmanuel)
-
Sanjjanaa Galrani
-
Suman Shetty
-
Shrasti Verma
-
Demon Pavan
-
Ramu Rathod
Some of these names jumped out as early firebrands. Thanuja and Flora, especially, seem like the ones who can stir a room with a single eyebrow raise. The drama kicked in right away, with Sanjjanaa at the center of almost every argument, sometimes even when she wasn’t trying (or was she?).
How to Vote Bigg Boss 9 Telugu?
Voting isn’t exactly rocket science, but with new twists each season, it helps to have a guide. Direct answer: Use the Disney+ Hotstar app or Google search voting, and pick your favorite house to keep in.
Hotstar method? Install the app, scroll to the Bigg Boss Telugu page, wait for the voting banner (it’s usually a bright button you can’t miss), tap your contestant, and hit submit. You get one vote per user (so no, “sharing” your cousin’s phone won’t work, I learned that the hard way with my little brother squabbling over his pick). Pro tip: votes close every week on Friday night, so no point panicking on Saturday. If you’re lazy, punch “Bigg Boss Telugu Vote” into Google, log in, and tick your choice there, handy for office-time browsing!
Bigg Boss 9 Telugu Contestants List
This season? Absolute medley: 9 celebrities, 6 commoners, all thrown into the so-called “Owners vs Tenants” double-house format. At first, some fans (including me) rolled our eyes double house. Sounds like double the confusion. But honestly, it’s kind of working. Here’s the house roster, as naturally as possible:
-
Thanuja Puttaswamy — Daily soap queen, brings a “seen it all” vibe.
-
Flora Saini — Films, OTT, controversy magnet.
-
Rithu Chowdary — Influencer, firebrand.
-
Emmanuel — The comedy guy; all those Jabardasth antics.
-
Sanjjanaa Galrani — Always in the thick of confrontation.
-
Shrasti Verma — Choreographer; keeps breaking into moves.
-
Suman Shetty — South Indian film staple, usually calm.
-
Ramu Rathod — Singer with a side of soul-searching.
-
Kalyan Padala — Army background, respectfully strict.
-
Demon Pavan — Commoner entry, but stands out just with his name.
-
Haritha Harish, Srija Dammu, Dr. Priya, Maryada Manish, Bharani Shankar — a mix of actors, influencers, and wild cards.
Prepare for emotional meltdowns, weird alliances, random kitchen fights, and inevitably at least three people crying by Friday, if this week’s pattern is any indication. There’s something special about waiting for who’ll break the first plate, metaphorically or literally.
Bigg Boss 9 Telugu's Week 1 is already blazing, and given the fandom’s level of drama, it’s honestly hard not to get hooked, even if you pretend to groan at the over-the-top promos. Buckle up.
