BB8: Gautham’s Worst Gameplay Ever

In the Monday episode of Bigg Boss Telugu Season 8, Week 14, the show delivered a dramatic twist in the nomination process, keeping the housemates and viewers on edge. As this is the final week of nominations, Bigg Boss announced a surprise: apart from Avinash, who secured his spot as the first finalist, all other contestants—Nikhil, Gautham, Prerna, Vishnu Priya, Nabeel, and Rohini—were directly nominated for elimination.

Bigg Boss introduced an opportunity for one contestant to be saved from nomination and, in doing so, become the second finalist. However, the process led to intense discussions, confrontations, and strategic gameplay.

The nomination process became a battleground. Gautham accused Nikhil of “using Yashmi,” which shocked Vishnu Priya and fueled the argument. Gautham later clarified his words but faced backlash from other contestants.

Nikhil retaliated, alleging that he was aware of Gautham’s “gameplay” and accused him of provoking situations unnecessarily. Their argument escalated, with Nikhil warning Gautham to be mindful of his words.

Rohini and Vishnu Priya supported Nikhil, criticizing Gautham for his comments. Though Gautham apologized, Nikhil rejected the apology, keeping tensions high.

It is completely wrong on Gautham’s part because he was seen consoling Nikhil a few days ago. Gautham told Nikhil not to worry about what eliminated contestants said about his equation with women in the house. It was a sensible move from him back then. But, all of a sudden, he showed a drastic difference in his attitude.
