Bigg Boss Telugu 10 Day 21: Mukesh Sacrifices Captaincy

Bigg Boss Telugu Season 10 witnessed several twists in the third week. Wild card entries, Mithilesh’s unexpected exit with a ₹15 lakh suitcase and Mukesh using his special power to prevent an elimination kept the housemates and viewers engaged. The Sunday episode also saw intense arguments among Mukesh, Trigun and Aman over Mithilesh’s decision to leave the show with the cash offer.

Mithilesh appeared on the Bigg Boss stage after his exit and revealed that he planned to use the ₹15 lakh prize money for his song shoot. Before leaving, he advised several contestants to be careful and urged them to play their individual games instead of depending on groups. Nagarjuna later announced that Jhansi was safe and introduced a jungle-themed task in which contestants had to assign different tags to their fellow housemates.

The episode also featured a special appearance by Fahadh Faasil, along with Sara and Kartikeya, who promoted Don't Trouble the Trouble. The housemates were divided into two teams for a fun quiz, with Suri’s team emerging victorious. Trigun, Rohit, Charan and Aman were subsequently declared safe at different stages, leaving Varshini and Vamshi in the elimination zone.

The biggest twist came when Nagarjuna presented Mukesh with a final temptation. He was given the option to save either Varshini or Vamshi, but doing so meant giving up his captaincy, losing his immunity and facing direct nomination the following week. Mukesh accepted all three conditions, saying that he wanted both contestants to remain in the house.

As a result, Mukesh handed over his captaincy badge to Apoorva, who was declared the new captain. The elimination was cancelled, allowing both Varshini and Vamshi to continue in the house. Nagarjuna also hinted that the upcoming week would follow a “Total Domination” theme, setting the stage for another round of intense competition.
