The fifth week of Bigg Boss Telugu Season 10 ended with unexpected twists, emotional farewells, and the entry of five wild card contestants. Wild card contestant Apoorva Tungaturthy was eliminated after failing to secure enough audience votes, while RJ Charan also had to leave the house following a special voting process conducted by host Nagarjuna. The weekend episode grabbed attention as Apoorva shared her opinions about fellow contestants and the new entrants openly targeted Shalini over her gameplay.

Apoorva Tungaturthy Eliminated from Bigg Boss Telugu 10
Apoorva Tungaturthy’s journey in the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house came to an end during the fifth week. Although she entered the reality show as a wild card contestant with an understanding of the ongoing game, she could not build the expected connection with the audience. Her frequent disagreements with Shalini and Trigun also became a talking point during her stay.
As the elimination announcement was made, Jhansi became emotional and expressed sadness over Apoorva’s departure. She told Apoorva that she would miss her the most in the house. Before leaving, Apoorva advised Jhansi to play carefully and remain focused on the game.
After reaching the stage, Apoorva watched a video highlighting her Bigg Boss journey and became emotional. She also recalled the advice her father had given her before entering the house.
“My father told me not to damage our family’s reputation and to uphold its honour. I believe I did exactly that,” Apoorva said while reflecting on her journey.
Apoorva’s Bitter Shots at Rohith and Ram Prasad
Before leaving the show, Apoorva was asked by host Nagarjuna to share her honest opinions about the housemates through the Bitter Shots segment.
She first addressed Rohith, advising him not to underestimate other contestants or overestimate his own abilities. Apoorva pointed out that the dynamics inside the house could change at any time. She reminded him that confidence was important, but it should not turn into overconfidence.
Apoorva then criticised Ram Prasad, accusing him of allowing personal relationships to influence his decisions in the game. She suggested that he was displaying selfish behaviour and treating some contestants unfairly because of his connections with others. Her comments highlighted the importance of keeping personal equations separate from the competition.
Apoorva Advises Shalini to Focus on Her Game
Shalini was another contestant who received strong feedback from Apoorva. According to Apoorva, Shalini had lost sight of her individual game and was getting distracted by issues outside the competition.
She advised Shalini to stop depending on others and start playing for herself. Apoorva also told her to listen carefully before responding during arguments rather than reacting immediately.
Apoorva asked Shalini to accept the advice if she found it useful and ignore it otherwise. Her comments added another layer of drama to the weekend episode, particularly because Shalini had already been involved in several disagreements inside the house.
Five Wild Card Contestants Enter the House
The fifth-week episode became even more exciting with the arrival of five wild card contestants. Their entry was among the most anticipated developments of the season, as viewers were eager to discover who would join the existing housemates.
Television actor Shiva Kumar, known as the boyfriend of Priyanka Jain, made an eye-catching entry on a bike. He was joined by Neethu Nataraj, Daksha Guttikonda and Swetha Naidu.
The fifth wild card contestant was commoner Navarasalu Ramakrishna from Srikakulam. The housemates welcomed him warmly as he entered the competition. Ramakrishna expressed his admiration for Naresh and Rohith and received badges from Nagarjuna, using them to save the two contestants from elimination.
The new entrants were also asked to share their first impressions of the existing housemates. Shalini quickly became their primary target, with some wild card contestants questioning whether she was playing an independent game or relying on Rohith to stay relevant.
Shalini responded firmly, indicating that the real picture would become clear once the new contestants entered the house and the competition progressed.
Bigg Boss Telugu 10 Double Elimination: RJ Charan Also Evicted
The fifth week concluded with a double elimination, making the weekend episode particularly dramatic. After Apoorva’s eviction, Shalini and RJ Charan were left in the final elimination round.
Host Nagarjuna introduced a special voting process in which the housemates had to write down the name of the contestant they wanted to keep in the competition and place it in a box.
A total of 11 housemates participated in the vote. Shalini received 10 votes, while Charan received only one vote. As a result, RJ Charan was eliminated from Bigg Boss Telugu 10, bringing his journey to an end alongside Apoorva’s departure.
Charan became emotional while saying goodbye to the housemates. He asked them to forgive him if he had hurt anyone during his time in the competition. Nagarjuna embraced him on stage and gave him a warm farewell.
