The latest episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 9 featured high drama and intense confrontations as nominations resumed, with several contestants airing their grievances in heated exchanges.

Rithu nominated Harish, saying,
“I don’t like that you thought of giving up. I don’t want to be around someone willing to quit. And you refused to eat — if not for yourself, you should’ve eaten for the family you claim to protect. If someone accuses you of something, you should stay and prove them wrong, not play the sympathy card by refusing food.”

In response, Harish said,
“I have issues with the cooking team, that’s why I refused food. I will be who I am, not who you want me to be. You are the reason for the conflict among the owners.”
Rithu strongly disagreed with the accusation, and the exchange quickly escalated into a heated argument.

For her second nomination, Rithu picked Flora, criticising her for disposing of clothes inappropriately in the bathroom.

“You could’ve placed them in a lost-and-found corner so others could collect them. When you throw them in the dustbin, you’re touching them anyway — so you might as well just set them aside.”
Although Flora apologized for the incident, Rithu did not accept her apology.

Elsewhere, Suman Shetty nominated Priya, saying he felt hurt when she asked if he had stolen food from the kitchen. Priya clarified that she had questioned everyone when some items went missing, not just him. Suman’s second nomination was Maryada Manish, pointing out Manish’s hesitation when granting house entry permission. Manish defended himself by explaining that he didn’t have the monitor badge at the time and was simply doing his duty by questioning everyone entering the house.

Demon Pavan nominated Flora for dismissing his friendly suggestions regarding bathroom etiquette and for her ongoing conflict with Sanjana. He also accused Flora of drinking Sanjana’s cold drink. Flora responded,

“She drank two glasses of my hot water without even asking. So, I don’t think I did anything wrong by sipping her cold drink. And I didn’t steal — I just took a sip.”

Pavan’s second nomination was Bharani. He expressed disappointment that Bharani denied knowledge of the alleged theft and tried to clear his own name without considering Tanuja, who was also present during the incident.
