Bigg Boss Telugu 10 Week 6: Five Wild Cards Enter After Double Eviction; Nominations Awaited
Bigg Boss Telugu 10 has entered Week 6 after Apoorva and Charan left in a double elimination and five new wild-card contestants entered the house. Here is what is confirmed, what remains only reported and why the new nomination list should not be treated as final until the episode establishes it.

Bigg Boss Telugu 10 has entered a substantially different phase after its latest weekend episode: Apoorva and Charan have left the house, five new wild-card contestants have entered, and the next nomination cycle is about to test a much larger and more complicated group of housemates.
The most important point for viewers checking the latest update on Monday, October 12, is that the programme is now moving through Week 6. Some online posts have already begun referring to the new phase as Week 7, but that is ahead of the current programme timeline. Week 5 concluded with the October 11 weekend episode, making the new cycle Week 6.
That distinction matters because nomination lists, elimination predictions and voting discussions can quickly become confusing when week numbers are carried forward incorrectly.
The weekend also resolved several questions that were still uncertain only two days earlier.
Rajatheertha's previous Bigg Boss Telugu 10 update had separated confirmed developments from wild-card rumours because, at that stage, several reported names had not yet actually entered the house. The situation has now changed: five contestants have appeared as wild-card entrants, while two existing contestants have exited.

Bigg Boss Telugu 10 is preparing for another shake-up as wild-card speculation grows around Neethu Natraj, Rama Krishna, Shiva Kumar and other names. Here is what is confirmed, what remains rumoured and how the Week 5 danger zone has changed.
As of September 16, Pawan Kalyan and Sujeeth are developing the next chapter of the OG Universe, Nagarjuna’s milestone King100 is set for Christmas, Ravi Teja’s Irumudi is heading to Netflix after a major theatrical run, and Samantha’s Maa Inti Bangaram has set a new benchmark for women-led Telugu c
The focus therefore shifts from "who may enter?" to a more useful question: how will five confirmed newcomers affect Week 6 nominations, alliances and the next eviction?
Key Takeaways
Apoorva and Charan eliminated in a double eviction.
Complete Week 6 nomination list not yet confirmed.
Do not treat unofficial polls as official voting results.
Apoorva and Charan Leave in a Double Elimination
The Week 5 weekend episode ended with two exits.
Apoorva was eliminated after the audience-vote stage of the weekend process. Her departure ended a relatively short but eventful stay after she had previously entered through a wild-card route.
The second exit involved Charan, whose Bigg Boss Telugu 10 journey had already included an earlier elimination followed by a return.
In the later stage of the weekend episode, the decision came down to Charan and Shalini. The newly introduced wild-card group was given a role in determining who would be saved, and Shalini remained in the competition while Charan left the house.
That made it a double elimination and closed another unusual chapter for Charan, who had already experienced one exit and a subsequent second chance during the season.
The distinction between the two eliminations is worth preserving because simply saying both contestants "lost the public vote" would not accurately describe the full weekend sequence.
Five Wild Cards Are Now Confirmed
The biggest development of the weekend was not only the double elimination but the arrival of five new contestants.
The confirmed entrants are:
Wild-card contestant
Current status
Shiva Kumar
Entered the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house
Daakshi Guttikonda
Entered the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house
Neethu Natraj
Entered the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house
Swetha Naidu
Entered the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house
Rama Krishna
Entered the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 house
Their entry turns several rumours from the previous week into confirmed programme developments.
Rama Krishna and Neethu Natraj had been among the names most consistently linked with the wildcard round. Shiva Kumar had also appeared repeatedly in pre-weekend reports, while Daakshi Guttikonda and Swetha Naidu were included in later lists circulating ahead of Sunday's episode.
The key difference now is that viewers no longer need to rely on casting speculation for these five names. They have entered the competition.
Why This Update Is Different From the Earlier Wild-Card Story
Before the weekend, several entertainment reports were publishing different combinations of possible entrants.
That created a familiar Bigg Boss problem: a person being "approached," "shortlisted," "expected" or "in talks" can quickly become labelled as a confirmed contestant online even when the programme itself has not introduced them.
Rajatheertha therefore treated the earlier casting discussion cautiously.
That caution proved useful.
Some of the names repeatedly reported before the weekend did enter. Others did not appear in the final five-person group.
The latest article should therefore not reproduce the earlier rumour list as though all of those names remain equally relevant. The news has moved forward.
Confirmed vs Reported: Where the Wild-Card Story Stands Now
The cleanest way to understand the situation after the weekend is to divide it into two categories.
Confirmed
Shiva Kumar is inside the house.
Daakshi Guttikonda is inside the house.
Neethu Natraj is inside the house.
Swetha Naidu is inside the house.
Rama Krishna is inside the house.
Apoorva has exited.
Charan has exited.
The programme has moved into its next nomination cycle.
Previously Reported but Not Part of This Wild-Card Batch
Seerat Kapoor had been linked with the show in earlier reporting.
Mouneesha had also been mentioned in reports about possible approaches for the wildcard round.
Reports before the weekend said the two had declined opportunities to participate.
Those reports should still be described as reports rather than retroactively turned into official programme announcements. What can be stated with certainty after the weekend is simpler: neither Seerat Kapoor nor Mouneesha was among the five contestants who entered in this batch.
That is the safer editorial distinction.
What Is the Bigg Boss Telugu 10 Week 6 Nomination List?
As of this update, a complete Week 6 nomination list should not be published as confirmed.
The new nomination process is beginning after the major weekend reshuffle, but the final nominee field needs to be established through the programme itself.
That means there is currently no responsible basis for declaring a complete Week 6 "danger zone."
Week 6 Nomination Tracker
Week 6 nomination question
Latest status
Has the new nomination cycle begun?
The process is moving into the new week
Is the complete nominee list officially settled?
Not yet confirmed at the time of publication
Can a Week 6 danger zone be named?
No, not responsibly until nominations and voting are established
Are unofficial polls reliable as the official vote count?
No
Should this article be updated after the nomination episode?
Yes
This is an important point for readers because Bigg Boss nomination stories often move faster than the television broadcast.
Promos, fan pages, live-feed discussions and unofficial polls can provide clues, but they do not automatically establish the final nomination list.
Once Star Maa's episode formally completes the process, the table above should be replaced with the confirmed names.
What Happened to the Week 5 Nominees?
Week 5 involved a much broader nomination field and a series of "Road to Reload" developments that changed individual contestants' positions during the week.
The nomination pool had included:
Week 5 contestant
Weekend outcome
Apoorva
Eliminated
Charan
Eliminated
Rohit
Remained in the house
Shalini
Remained in the house
Thrigun
Remained in the house
Aman
Remained in the house
Ram Prasad
Remained in the house
Mukesh
Remained in the house
Naresh
Remained in the house
Jhansi
Used her available advantage during the week's safety process
That table should not be confused with Week 6 nominations.
The arrival of five new contestants effectively resets the immediate nomination conversation.
Who Is "in Danger" in Week 6?
At the time of writing, the most accurate answer is: it is too early to say.
A contestant is not automatically in danger simply because social-media users dislike a recent performance or because an unofficial poll ranks that person near the bottom.
The Week 6 nominee list first needs to be established.
Voting then needs to open under the show's authorised process.
Only after that can readers reasonably discuss who appears vulnerable — and even then, unofficial voting percentages should be described carefully.
This is especially important in a week with five new contestants because new entrants can alter both nomination mathematics and audience attention.
How Five New Contestants Could Change the House
Bringing five people into the competition at once is very different from introducing a single wildcard.
Existing contestants have already built friendships, conflicts and strategic understandings over several weeks. A large wildcard group arrives with the ability to disrupt those structures immediately.
There are at least four ways that could happen.
1. Existing alliances may lose their numerical advantage
A group that previously had enough members to influence nominations may suddenly find itself facing five contestants who do not share the same history.
If the newcomers vote independently, the nomination pattern could become less predictable.
If some of them quickly align with an existing group, the balance could move in the opposite direction.
2. Wild cards enter with outside knowledge
New contestants have had the opportunity to observe at least part of the season from outside.
They may have seen which rivalries are attracting attention, which players appear isolated and which housemates are perceived as strong.
Knowing that information and using it effectively are two different things, but it gives new entrants a perspective original contestants did not have when they walked into the house.
3. Original contestants now have new competition for screen time
Reality television is not decided only by formal tasks.
Visibility, conversations, conflicts, humour, emotional connections and memorable moments all influence how audiences perceive contestants.
Five energetic newcomers can reduce the space available to housemates who had become comfortable in the existing structure.
4. The next nomination round becomes more important
The first nomination after a large wildcard entry usually reveals far more than a routine weekly vote.
It can show which newcomers are immediately accepted, which are treated as threats, whether old rivalries remain stronger than new ones and whether the original contestants instinctively unite against the wild cards.
That is why the Week 6 nomination episode may be more informative than any speculative "danger zone" published before it.
Rama Krishna Finally Gets His Place in the House
Rama Krishna's entry is particularly notable because his route into the main competition has not been straightforward.
He had previously been involved in the Agni Pareeksha-related route to the house and had missed an earlier opportunity to secure a place.
His eventual wildcard entry therefore gives him another chance in the competition rather than introducing him as a completely unknown face to viewers who followed the pre-show and earlier wildcard process.
The challenge for him now is different.
Trying to earn entry is one contest. Building relationships, surviving nominations and converting recognition into sustained gameplay inside the main house is another.
Neethu Natraj Moves From Rumour to Contestant
Neethu Natraj was one of the names most consistently reported ahead of the wildcard episode.
Before her appearance, Rajatheertha deliberately kept her status in the "reported" category because repeated media reports are not the same thing as an official entry.
That uncertainty has now ended.
Her entry means future coverage should no longer describe her merely as a possible wildcard. She is now part of the active contestant pool.
Swetha Naidu, Daakshi Guttikonda and Shiva Kumar Expand the New Group
The inclusion of Swetha Naidu, Daakshi Guttikonda and Shiva Kumar makes the wildcard arrival much larger than the two-person combination that featured in some earlier reports.
That matters strategically.
A single newcomer can be absorbed into an existing alliance fairly quickly. Five entrants are enough to form their own voting bloc, split across existing groups or create entirely new equations.
Whether that actually happens will depend on the coming episodes.
It should not be assumed in advance that the five wildcards will operate as one team simply because they entered at the same time.
What About Seerat Kapoor and Mouneesha?
Both names appeared in pre-weekend reporting.
Reports suggested they had been approached but declined the opportunity to participate.
Neither entered with the confirmed group on Sunday.
The important editorial point is not to convert the absence of an entry into a stronger claim than the evidence supports.
It is reasonable to say they were reported as having declined.
It would be less responsible to present contract negotiations, reasons for declining or future participation as established fact without direct confirmation.
For now, they are not members of this five-person wildcard batch.
What Viewers Should Watch Next
The immediate focus now moves to nominations.
Three questions matter most.
First, will the five wildcards be eligible for nomination immediately, or will the show give any of them a temporary protection or special rule?
Second, how will the original contestants react when asked to nominate after losing two housemates and gaining five newcomers in the same weekend?
Third, which old conflicts survive the reset?
A large wildcard round can look dramatic on entry night, but its real impact becomes visible only when contestants have to make decisions that affect survival.
Week 6 nominations should provide the first clear evidence.
Do Not Treat Fan Polls as Official Voting Results
Once the nominee list is confirmed, numerous social-media polls and entertainment pages are likely to begin publishing ranking tables.
Those can be useful for understanding online fan enthusiasm on a particular platform.
They should not be presented as the official Bigg Boss vote count.
Different fan pages attract different communities, sample sizes vary widely and organised fan groups can influence independent polls.
Unless the programme or its authorised voting system publishes exact figures, a claim such as "Contestant X has 32.4% of the official vote" should not be treated as verified merely because a screenshot is circulating online.
Where to Watch Bigg Boss Telugu 10
Bigg Boss Telugu 10 is hosted by Nagarjuna and is broadcast on Star Maa, with streaming available through JioHotstar.
Viewers following nominations should rely on the broadcast, authorised streaming feed and official programme communication for the final list rather than treating pre-episode social-media posts as settled fact.
What Changed Since Rajatheertha's Previous Report?
Rajatheertha's October 10 story tracked the wildcard situation while the final lineup was still uncertain.
That report correctly separated names being discussed from contestants whose participation had actually been established.
The weekend has now produced a clear update.
Five entrants who had been at different stages of speculation are inside the house.
Apoorva is out.
Charan is out.
The Week 5 danger-zone discussion is finished.
Week 6 has begun.
And the next nomination list is the major piece of information still missing.
Readers looking for the pre-weekend background can see Rajatheertha's earlier report:
Bigg Boss Telugu 10 has started Week 6 with one of its largest changes so far.
Apoorva and Charan have exited following the weekend's double-elimination sequence, while Shiva Kumar, Daakshi Guttikonda, Neethu Natraj, Swetha Naidu and Rama Krishna have entered as the new wildcard contestants.
That five-person entry makes older wildcard speculation largely obsolete and gives the house a new competitive structure.
What is not yet settled is the Week 6 nomination list.
Until the programme completes that process, headlines declaring specific contestants to be in the new week's danger zone should be treated cautiously.
The next meaningful update is therefore not another rumour list. It is the confirmed Week 6 nominations — and how the five new contestants change the choices being made inside the house.
Key Takeaway
Week 6 begins after double eviction of Apoorva and Charan.
Five wild cards confirmed inside the house.
Complete Week 6 nominations still awaiting official confirmation.
