Bigg Boss Telugu 8 Contestants’ Rumored Salaries: The Much-Awaited Season Kicks Off with Exciting Twists
The grand launch of Bigg Boss Telugu 8 took place on the night of September 1, marking the debut of the eagerly anticipated new season. Host Nagarjuna introduced 14 fresh contestants into the Bigg Boss Telugu 8 house, setting the stage for another riveting reality show.
The launch event was a spectacular affair, with Nagarjuna making a memorable entrance while dancing to Jr NTR’s hit song “Fear From Devara Part 1.” The premiere also featured appearances from notable guests, including Nani, Rana Daggubati, Priyanka Mohan, Anil Ravipudi, and Nivetha Thomas.
A Season of Limitless Entertainment
This season promises “limitless entertainment” with a vibrant, jungle-themed house. In a unique twist, there will be no designated captain, no immunity, and no pre-provided ration. Contestants will need to earn their sustenance and other necessities through their actions. Additionally, the prize money is described as ‘limitless,’ increasing based on the contestants’ performances throughout the season.
Meet the Contestants
The housemates for this season are Yashmi, Nikhil Maliyakkal, Abhay Naveen, Soniya Akula, Bezawada Bebakka, Shekar Basha, Kiraak Seetha, Aditya Om, Naga Manikanta, Prithviraj, Vishnupriya, Nainika, and Nabeel Afridi. While some of the contestants, like Nikhil, Shekar Basha, and Abhay Naveen, are somewhat familiar to the Telugu audience, the majority are newcomers. This has sparked some disappointment among fans regarding the selection of participants.
Aditya Om: The Highest-Paid Contestant?
Initial reports suggest that the contestants’ salaries this season vary significantly, ranging from Rs 1 Lakh to Rs 5 Lakh per week. Aditya Om is rumored to be the highest-paid contestant, commanding Rs 5 Lakh per week. Further details about the contestants’ earnings will be disclosed soon.
As the first week of nominations unfolds, tensions are already rising, with reports of arguments between Naga Manikanta, Nikhil, Yashmi, and Soniya. Stay tuned for more updates and check out the promo for the Day 2 episode below.
