The contest on Bigg Boss Telugu 9 has tightened, with one contestant stepping into the finale and another leaving. Kalyan Padala has secured the first confirmed spot in the grand finale, while Rithu Chowdary has exited after receiving the lowest public votes, as the show moves closer to deciding the winner.

Rithu Chowdary’s eviction ends the journey of an actress and presenter who featured in television dramas Inti Guttu and Mounaraagam. Audience votes placed Rithu at the bottom during the thirteenth week, leading to her elimination. Divya Nikita had left the Bigg Boss Telugu 9 house earlier in the week.

Bigg Boss Telugu 9 ticket to finale update

Attention has also turned to the Bigg Boss Telugu 9 Ticket to Finale task, which confirmed the first finalist. Filmibeat earlier reported that Kalyan Padala outperformed the rest of the contestants during the challenge. That effort earned Kalyan the Ticket to Finale and the status of the season’s first finalist.

A reliable industry source exclusively told Filmibeat Chief Copy Editor Abhishek Ranjit, "The makers of Bigg Boss Telugu 9 are leaving no stone unturned to make the season a roaring success. The show has been making waves since its inception, grabbing eyeballs and topping the TRP charts in the non-fiction space. After a heartwarming Family Week, it's time for the Ticket to Finale task in Bigg Boss Telugu 9 as the contestants will have to participate in segments to determine who will emerge as the first finalist of the season."

Kalyan’s team later celebrated the Bigg Boss Telugu 9 Ticket to Finale win through a detailed Instagram post. The note highlighted Kalyan’s entry as a commoner, the progress through tasks, and hopes that Kalyan could become the youngest Bigg Boss title holder. Supporters were credited for voting, cheering and standing with Kalyan throughout.

Bigg Boss Telugu 9 elimination and voting trends

The thirteenth-week eviction episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 9 featured six nominated contestants. Those facing the public vote were Bharani, Pavan, Rithu, Sanjjana, Suman and Thanuja. Voting lines allowed viewers to decide who stayed in the house, with one contestant eventually removed from the competition.

Early trends from the Bigg Boss Telugu 9 vote count placed Sanjjana and Suman Shetty near the danger zone. Both names appeared in the bottom two in initial figures. However, such trends often shift before the final tally, and this week the actual eviction went in a different direction.

After the complete vote count, Bigg Boss Telugu 9 announced Rithu Chowdary as the latest housemate to leave. Rithu received the fewest votes among the six nominated contestants. The decision followed the usual format, where audience support alone decides who continues towards the finale.

Here is the list of nominated contestants for Bigg Boss Telugu 9 during the thirteenth week:

With Kalyan Padala confirmed as the first Bigg Boss Telugu 9 finalist and Rithu Chowdary out, the final stretch has started to take shape. The remaining contestants now compete for limited finale spots, the winner’s trophy and the cash prize, while viewers wait to see which name emerges as champion.
