While it is well known that Jr NTR is one of the biggest reasons for the Bigg Boss Telugu show turning out to be a hit, there was a widespread opinion that the contestants for the title lacked something to make the show interesting.

To make up for this, the makers of the show have roped in actor Navdeep through the wild card entry and things have improved well.

Navdeep literally drove into the sets of the Bigg Boss house located in Pune on his bike and has been doing well with the inmates.

Within a couple of days of his stay in the house, Navdeep has gone on to prove that he has the energy and charisma to keep the audiences glued to the screens.

Of course, it is a different story when Jr NTR is on the show and it usually happens during the weekends when he interacts with the contestants. He is a crowd-puller and knows how to enthrall audiences.

The first season of the show went on air on July 16 on Star Maa and has been declared a big hit already.

The first season would comprise of 71 episodes. The show began with 16 celebs competing for the Bigg Boss title. Every week, a couple of inmates are evicted through a voting process by the other inmates and the housemate that receives the most number of nominations would face a public vote.

The show has actors Archana, Hari Teja, Mumaith Khan, Jyothi, Diksha Panth (Wild Card), Sameer
Prince Cecil, Siva Balaji, Sampoornesh Babu, Dhanraj and Navdeep (Wild Card); singers Madhu Priya and Kalpana Raghavendra, cricketer Aadarsh; movie critic Mahesh Kathi and TV host Karthiga participating as the contestants.
