Another contestant Sai Kumar Pampana entered into the show as Wild card contestant. This week another comedian Avinash has entered the house as the second Wildcard entry. This is the first mid-week wildcard entry of the season.
This week after director Surya Kiran's eviction, nine contestants like Gangavva, Noel Sean, Monal Gujjar, Syed Sohel Ryan, Karate Kalyani, Amma Rajasekhar, Kumar Sai, Harika and Abhijeet are nominated for elimination from the show.
There is huge speculation this week that YouTube personality Milkuri Gangavva will be eliminated from the show. Meanwhile, Gangavva, who is unwell, is being attended by doctors.
