The 12th episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 10 delivered a high-stakes blend of strategic political manoeuvres, heated kitchen disputes, and a shock return that completely flipped the house dynamic. With captaincy spots on the line and alliances rapidly shifting, the housemates navigated one of the most volatile days of the season so far.
The episode kicked off with high-level strategy as Trigun set his sights on forging a truce with Rohith.
Recognising Rohith’s strong standing in the house, Trigun directly approached him to propose a mutual non-aggression pact. Trigun argued that weaker housemates were using them both as “shields” during arguments and suggested they stop targeting each other to solidify their dominance. Rohith agreed not to backstab him, forming a temporary alliance designed to keep their competitors off-balance.
Meanwhile, a casual conversation in the living area quickly turned into a subtle critique of fellow housemate Vamsi. While Shalini and Srishti praised Sudheer for his strong work ethic and morning discipline, Rohith pushed back, questioning whether basic household contributions warranted such high praise.
The dialogue then shifted to Vamsi’s changing persona. Shalini openly questioned whether Vamsi was being authentic compared to his pre-show image, while Rohith accused him of forcing his way into emotional discussions purely to project a “lone wolf” persona.
The ongoing tension around Vamsi boiled over during a minor dispute in the kitchen, bringing emotional drama to the forefront. When Varshini, Sudheer, and Mukesh asked if they could use a small amount of cooking oil to make omelettes, Ram Prasad suggested checking with Debjani, the monitor.
Vamsi interjected with sarcastic remarks that deeply hurt Varshini. Overwhelmed by the unnecessary hostility during a simple household task, Varshini broke down in tears, highlighting the raw strain building up within the group.
The competition reached a fever pitch as Trigun, Ram Prasad, and Debjani faced off in the next stage of the captaincy task. Trigun showcased his athletic drive by securing first place, followed by Ram Prasad, while Debjani was eliminated from the round. This decisive victory solidified Trigun’s position in the captaincy race, granting him serious momentum—and a crucial advantage moving forward.
Just as the dust settled from the task, Bigg Boss dropped a massive surprise when a group masked as “mysterious demons” invaded the house. The housemates were initially led to believe that Shalini was being abruptly evicted, leaving everyone in a state of shock and confusion.
However, the true twist was revealed when one demon unmasked himself as Charan, the contestant eliminated in the opening week who was granted a second chance by the audience via the Power of People vote.
While Charan’s return injected fresh energy into the house, Bigg Boss issued a strict warning: having seen the show from the outside, Charan was strictly forbidden from sharing strategic intel or audience perceptions with the remaining contestants. To make his mark, Charan utilized a special challenge power to target Trigun’s captaincy spot, accusing Trigun of being overly dominant and refusing to listen to others.
However, Charan failed to adhere to the explicit task rules set by Bigg Boss during the face-off, resulting in Trigun being declared the ultimate winner. Trigun successfully retained his spot, serving Charan a swift reminder that returning to the house means earning victory all over again.
