The ninth episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 9 Agnipariksha kicked off with host Srimukhi warmly welcoming the judges Abhijith, Navdeep, and Bindu Madhavi alongside the top 15 contestants.
To add excitement, Bindu Madhavi carried special gifts for the housemates. However, there was a twist: only 12 boxes were available, leaving three contestants without a chance to perform.
Gift Distribution Sparks Drama
As the previous star performer, Naga Prashanth was given the power to distribute the boxes. Unlike the others, he was aware of what each box contained. Using this advantage, he carefully handed out gifts to his preferred contestants while deliberately excluding Manish, Shakib, and Demon Pavan. This decision didn’t go down well, leading to a heated argument particularly with Shakib, who questioned the fairness of the process.
Just then, Navdeep unveiled another twist: the contestants were not allowed to open their boxes immediately. Instead, they had to decide whether to keep their own or swap with someone else’s.
The High-Stakes Swapping Game
The swapping session brought suspense and strategy into play as each contestant made their choice:
- Harish placed his trust in Prashanth and refused to swap.
- Srija boldly swapped with Prashanth.
- Prasanna Kumar chose to stay with his box, ready to face the outcome.
- Kalki exchanged with Anusha, while Shreya kept her own.
- Divya Nikitha traded with Shreya, expecting Prashanth’s choice to benefit her.
- Anusha once again swapped, reclaiming Kalki’s box.
- Shwetha traded with Harish, believing she’d land the “leader’s box.”
- Soldier Pavan Kalyan, much like Harish, chose trust over change.
- Prashanth made a surprising move, swapping with Shreya.
- Dahliya exchanged with Srija.
- Finally, Priya Shetty swapped with Prashanth.
When the mystery was revealed, only Dahliya, Prasanna Kumar, and Priya Shetty emerged as the “leaders.”
Teams Take Shape
The three leaders then selected their respective teammates:
- Red Team (Prasanna Kumar): Anusha, Shwetha, Divya
- Blue Team (Dahliya): Srija, Shreya, Harish
- Yellow Team (Priya Shetty): Pavan Kalyan, Kalki, Prashanth
The three contestants who didn’t receive boxes Manish, Shakib, and Demon Pavan were appointed as sanchalaks (supervisors).
The Three-Phase Task Challenge
The main task of the day was divided into three stages—utensil cleaning, clothes folding, and floor cleaning.
Utensil Cleaning
- Yellow Team: Pavan Kalyan
- Red Team: Anusha
- Blue Team: Dahliya and Shreya
Anusha completed the task first, giving her team the lead. Soon after, Pavan Kalyan finished his part, followed by the Blue Team once Manish approved their work.
Clothes Folding
- Red Team: Prasanna Kumar
- Yellow Team: Naga Prashanth and Priya Shetty
- Blue Team: Srija
The Yellow Team sped ahead and finished folding first, Red followed next, and the Blue Team trailed behind.
Floor Cleaning
- Yellow Team: Kalki
- Red Team: Shwetha
- Blue Team: Harish
Kalki finished first for Yellow, while Red secured second place with Shwetha and Divya’s effort. Harish wrapped up last for the Blue Team.
Judges Walk Out in Disappointment
Despite the teams completing the tasks, host Srimukhi and the sanchalaks noticed several lapses in performance and effort. The judges shared the same disappointment, concluding that none of the teams performed up to expectations. As a result, they announced that there would be no winning team and no best performer of the day.
In an unexpected and dramatic turn, the judges walked out of the show in frustration, leaving contestants stunned. To add to the shock, no yellow card was issued, making this episode one of the most disheartening days of the season so far.
