Agnipariksha was nothing short of a rollercoaster. Host Sreemukhi welcomed judges Navdeep, Bindu Madhavi, and Abijeet with her trademark energy and set the stage for a power-packed evening. She reminded viewers that 15 contestants have been shortlisted, but only five will ultimately step into the Bigg Boss house, and that choice rests in the audience’s hands.

Judges Lay Down the Game Plan
Before the action kicked off, Sreemukhi asked the judges to share their perspective. Abijeet explained that competitive spirit is the deciding factor and contestants must prove how they perform under pressure.
Bindu Madhavi stressed that Agnipariksha is the perfect training ground for the grueling tasks inside the main house. Navdeep added that this stage will prepare them mentally for what’s to come, making it clear that survival here is not just about popularity but adaptability.
Nagarjuna’s Special Message
Just when the atmosphere was warming up, Sreemukhi surprised the participants with a video message from none other than Akkineni Nagarjuna. His words of encouragement gave the contestants a morale boost, while also raising the stakes for the competition.
Ranking Chaos Creates Drama
The first big task was introduced by Abijeet, who directly asked the contestants to decide their own ranking positions from 1 to 15. As expected, almost everyone rushed to claim the top spots, creating chaos and heated arguments.
Shreya stood at position 6, calling it her lucky number, but Navdeep wasn’t convinced by her reasoning. Meanwhile, Prashant quietly stood at number 7, showing a different approach.
Amid the scramble, Sreemukhi revealed a shocking twist – Shreya, who ended up in the last place, was given the power to push one contestant down to number 15. Without hesitation, she chose Daaliya, leaving the house buzzing with reactions.
Judges Intervene and Reorder Rankings
The fight for number one didn’t end there. Judges decided that Sreeja, who stood at position three, would hold the authority to finalize the top two spots. Sreeja declared Prasanna as the rightful number one, citing his strength and determination, while Anusha secured the second spot.
After the reshuffling, the judges reminded contestants that followers on social media won’t guarantee success inside the house. Real fandom, they said, will be built only through actions and behavior on the show.
Teams Divided with a Twist
The competition then moved to team selection. Contestants were split into Team Red and Team Blue. Since Daaliya had been pushed to the 15th position, she was technically out of the race but was given a special advantage she could choose the leaders for both teams. Daaliya picked Manish Maryada as the Red Team leader and Priya as the Blue Team leader.
Another twist followed each leader had to select only four members, ensuring two women in the lineup. Team Red, led by Manish, chose Anusha, Sreeja, Pawan, and Prasanna. Team Blue, under Priya’s leadership, went with Swetha, Kalki, Pavan Kalyan, and Naga.
Rope Challenge Turns the Heat On
The first major face-off between the two teams was the rope circle challenge. Teams had to form circles using ropes and aim them into smaller circles marked on the ground. Daaliya acted as the sanchalak for the task.
The contest was fierce Anusha was eliminated from Team Red, while Kalki was knocked out from Team Blue. Eventually, Team Blue clinched the win.
Rewards and Evaluations
Winning team leader Priya was given the privilege to appeal for votes. In a strategic move, she passed this opportunity to Pavan Kalyan, who addressed the audience directly.
As the episode wrapped up, the judges were asked to announce both the weakest and the strongest performers. Kalki was called out as the least impressive, while Sreeja earned praise as the Most Valuable Player for her composure and smart decisions.
