Bigg Boss Kannada OTT: Rakesh Adiga, Nandini, Jashwant Bopanna, and Saanya Iyer up for elimination; Roopesh Shetty survives

Following the third week's eliminations which saw Uday Surya make the exit from the house, contestants were put through the nomination ground once again. Taking their respective turns to the fabled Bigg Boss room, each of the remaining 11 contestants nominated two housemates and also presented their reasons to do so.

While Jayshree Aradhaya had already held an elimination spot following her goof-up the previous week, the process also includes the current house captain picking a nomination of their own choice.

And as the secretive nomination process came to an end, the contestants found themselves waiting for the verdict which brought about some interesting results. The not-so-surprising result came in the form of TV actress Akshatha Kukki who has been in contention for the exit since the very beginning but has somehow waded her through to Week #4.

The surprising nominations, however, were of frontrunners Saanya Iyer, Chaitra Hallikeri, Rakesh Adiga, and Jashwant Bopanna. While Saanya and Rakesh were nominated because of their apparent popularity in the outside world, a few of the contestants reckoned that it would be interesting to see how Jashwant responds to his maiden elimination threat.

Chaitra Hallikeri's name came up as a result of the shift in her strategy of being in everyone's 'good books', aside from the fact that she too is a worthy contender for the throne.

As far as the captain's pick is concerned, Somanna Machimada took the center stage and announced that he would be nominating Roadies girl Nandini to join the rest. His reasons, albeit slightly puzzling, stated that since both Nandu and Jashwant came into the competition as one single entity but were later split into two, he would like to see them leave together. He added that Nandini is also a very tough opponent who has proven her might not just against the female contestants but also against the men of the Bigg Boss Kannada OTT house.

Jayshree Aradhya was later seen surmising that since she was already nominated, the rest were compelled to pick a new name which has, in turn, resulted in a few surprises. A much-relieved Roopesh Shetty, who survived the eliminations and is through to Week #5, was spotted sharing a light moment with Saanya Iyer, Nandini, and others.
