Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 5: Viral Audio Claims Rinosh Infected with Contagious Disease; Friends Respond

Speculation and Debate Surround Rinosh's Absence from Bigg Boss: In recent days, social media platforms have been abuzz with discussions regarding Rinosh George's departure from Bigg Boss Malayalam season 5.

Rinosh, who took time off for medical treatment, has yet to return to the Bigg Boss house, prompting intense speculation and debate among viewers.

Rinosh's health issues came to light following the car task in the Ticket to Finale segment. During the episode, Rinosh openly shared his struggles with skin allergies on camera. Subsequently, Rinosh was blindfolded and escorted away, with Bigg Boss informing the audience about his ongoing treatment.

However, Rinosh's absence from the show for the past three days has fueled rumours and conjecture. Earlier, Akhil Marar also sought treatment due to health problems but returned to the house on the second day. Fans are now questioning whether Rinosh made a personal decision to leave the show after an extended absence.

Adding to fans' concerns, an audio message is circulating on social media, suggesting that Rinosh is leaving the show due to a 'viral fungal'* infection. The audio states, "It is said to be a viral fungus; Rinosh is interested in continuing, but due to the possibility of contagion, there is no possibility of Rinosh continuing in the show; a decision has been taken. Now it's an update from the hospital, what to do; it's a matter of health."

Responding to the circulating audio, season four contestant Shalini Nair acknowledged its existence, urging caution while not completely ruling it out. Rinosh's brother Aarosh had previously assured everyone that Rinosh was not facing any problems. Nevertheless, Rinosh's three-day absence from the show has left fans hopeful for his return. Shalini remarked, "What if Rinosh bro could not come back due to bad luck? Let's wait for our beloved star with optimism."

Friends Respond to Controversial 'Contagious Disease' Claim

Meanwhile, Rinosh's friends took to his official Instagram page, issuing a statement requesting support and dismissing fake news and propaganda claiming Rinosh quit Bigg Boss. The note reads, "Dear Ones, Thank you once again for all the love and care you all give to Rinosh. Sorry, we have not been able to directly respond to many of your queries as many calls and messages have flowed incessantly for 3 days with love for Rinosh.

Rinosh is fine and recovering from his illness. We once again request that you not believe the fake news and propaganda spread by YouTube channels suggesting Rinosh's exit. Rinosh is still a part of the Bigg Boss show. Some individuals are intentionally perpetuating this false narrative to create suspicion among the audience and gain votes for other contestants.

The official status of each contestant will always be officially announced by the Bigg Boss team itself. Currently, Rinosh is on this week's weekly eviction list. Let's all show our support and love for Rinosh by voting for him on Hotstar," the post stated.

*The term 'viral fungal' is not scientifically accurate. Viruses and fungi are two distinct types of organisms. It is assumed that the intention of the audio clip was to convey that Rinosh has an illness that can be transmitted from person to person. However, this has not yet been confirmed by Bigg Boss or the medical team.
