But he is a very calm and composed guy, and his gameplay is being liked by one and all in Bigg Boss 9 Telugu. The other day, he was seen fighting with Harita Harish and got into a heated argument, which shocked everyone. Bharani has done some great roles in the past, but due to his personal issues, he was sidelined a bit in the industry.
He is here on the show to make a comeback, and if he gets his act right, he can go a long way in the game. Bharani has been nominated this week, and we need to see how long he will go in the days to come. For now, his pay and the amount of publicity he is generating on the show are quite good.
