In the latest episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 5, Sunny consoled Kajal, who got emotional over the comments of Siri and Shanmukh during the nomination task. Anee told Sreerama Chandra that Kajal is staging a drama 24/7. Ravi told Shanmukh about Kajal’s emotional breakdown. Shanmukh justified his comments.
Priyanka was offended by Siri’s comments that she is playing Maanas’ game, too. She shared with Sunny that she likes Maanas but it is just impossible to take the equation further as she is a trans woman and that Siri shouldn’t have made the comment. Maanas asks Priyanka to be prepared for being pointed out by a few contestants even going further.
Shanmukh and Siri discussed how they had to move and play going ahead. But Shanmukh took offense with Siri’s behaviour and conversations with a few contestants later. Despite Siri giving him a friendship band, he confronted her about the same. He asked her to leave him rather than being double-faced with him.
Captaincy contender task:
Housemates had to grab a miner hat upon a buzzer, mine gold from the pit, and safeguard their gold in their respective safes. Upon a thunderbolt, the housemate gaining access to the power room won a power tool that they had to trade with their gold. The first two contestants with the highest volume of gold towards the end of the task will qualify to participate in the captaincy task. Ravi was the Sanchalak of the task.
Sunny, Shanmukh, Siri and Ravi competed in the first round. They scouted for gold in the pit of thermocol balls.
Maanas, Sunny, Anee, Priyanka and Ravi competed next. During the task, Shanmukh was spotted reprimanding Siri for not paying heed to his advice and leaving Ravi with an advantage in the task.
Siri asked Shanmukh why he has been assuming things and hurting her time and again. Offended, Shanmukh asked her to leave and got emotional saying that he is missing his girlfriend Deepthi Sunaina. “I’m feeling alone. I’m missing Deepthi. I would have been a King with her by my side. You better leave. I don’t want you or your friendship,” Shanmukh told Siri. She walked away and locked herself in the washroom where she had an emotional breakdown. Shanmukh tried to bring her out as he heard her banging head onto the wall. He got her out with the help of Ravi and other housemates. Shanmukh hugged Siri who had an emotional breakdown. Ravi tried to console them.
Maanas got access to the power room. Bigg Boss asked to shell 25 gold to win the power tool. Maanas gave the power tool to Sunny.
Maanas, Kajal, Priyanka, and Anee competed in the next round. Siri stole gold from Priyanka’s safe.
Shanmukh shared with Sreerama Chandra that he is in a relationship with Deepthi in real life but he and Siri are having an emotional connection in the house which is affecting his game. Sreerama Chandra encouraged him to start focusing on winning the show.
