Bigg Boss Telugu 10: Varshini takes captaincy from Aman, Srishti tipped to exit

Bigg Boss Telugu 10, hosted by Nagarjuna Akkineni, has reportedly seen one of its sharpest twists so far. Varshini Sounderajan is said to have taken the house captaincy away from Aman Masud by using a special power she had saved since she walked in. The move reportedly closed the Total Dominion phase on a dramatic note.

According to reports, Team Bhairava had to put forward five names for the captaincy race. After talks and an internal vote, Varshini, Jhansi, Ram Prasad, Apoorva and Sudheer were picked. Sudheer reportedly stepped aside because of ankle pain and swapped places with Aman. Rohit is said to have warned Aman that others might be shaping his choices.

The captaincy task, called Path to Power, reportedly tested strength, coordination and puzzle solving across several stages. Aman won the final round, but the win did not last long. Varshini's Grab Any Win power reportedly lets her claim another housemate's victory, and with Bigg Boss's approval she used it to become the new captain. She is said to have apologised to Aman afterwards, telling him the win meant a lot to her.

Attention has now moved to the week four eviction. Reports say nine housemates are nominated this week: Rohit Naidu, Thrigun, Naresh, Aman, Mukesh Gowda, Debjani, Charan, Shalini and Srishti. Charan, Shalini and Srishti are said to be at the bottom of the voting, and leaked updates point to Srishti Vyakaranam as the one heading out.

Srishti has reportedly stayed near the bottom since the season began. Nagarjuna is said to have warned both her and Krishnudu in the very first week that they could be sent home if nothing changed. Krishnudu went out in week two, and while Srishti reportedly picked up some buzz in week three, her votes are said to have dropped again.

The season started with 16 contestants. Mithilesh and Apoorva entered in week three, and Mithilesh reportedly walked away with the ₹15 lakh briefcase on only his third day. More wildcard entries are reportedly lined up.
