Bigg Boss 9 Telugu: Top 5 finalists locked, who is leading the voting? potential winner, all details here

Bigg Boss 9 Telugu is nearing its finale week and will be wrapped up by the end of this week or early next week. The makers are planning a grand finale as the top five have been finalised. Some entries were expected, while some shocking names have made it to the list. Here are the top five as per the voting trends as of now. Check them out.

Thanuja Puttaswamy

In the top spot is Thanuja Puttaswamy, the popular TV actress. Ever since she entered the show, Thanuja has made headlines for her behaviour, glamour, and the way she takes on tasks. 

As she is a non-Telugu contestant, there is massive controversy on social media that she should not win the show and that others should get a chance. But Thanuja is a hot favourite and is most likely to win the show this year.

Sanjjanaa Galrani

Sanjjanaa Galrani is one of the most controversial celebrities on the show. She was ousted in the fourth week but was brought back by the other housemates after making a few sacrifices. Ever since she made a comeback, Sanjjanaa has created a sensation of sorts and has played the game superbly. 

In the last few weeks, her game has gone to another level, as the way she stood her ground and even argued with the likes of Nagarjuna won the hearts of many. She is currently in second position.

Emmanuel

Emmanuel is one of the top celebrities on the show. The manner in which he has played the game has won the hearts of many. This is the first time that a comedian has come this far in the show, and if he wins the title, it will be a new record, as a contestant who entertains the most has never won before. Emmanuel was leading in the votes, but a small selfish decision made to save himself pushed him back. He now stands in third position.

Kalyan Padala

Kalyan Padala comes from an army background and entered the show through the Agnipariksha pre-show. He is known for his simple nature and the physical tasks he performs with great intensity. The manner in which Kalyan stood his ground even in some of the darkest moments on the show has landed him in fourth place.

Demon Pawan

Demon Pawan is yet another popular contestant who made his entry into Bigg Boss 9 Telugu through the Agnipariksha show. He was mainly in the spotlight due to his relationship with fellow housemate Rithu Chowdary. 

The duo gave the audience plenty of masala in the last few weeks. Demon is also a strong team player and has come a long way in the show thanks to his grounded nature. He is in the top five, and it remains to be seen how far he will go.
