Bigg Boss Telugu Season 8 is going wild as the 12th week active voting has begun! With multiple fan-favorite contestants in the race for the Bigg Boss title, audience votes determines the evictions every week. Here’s a comprehensive analysis of trends of voting, contestants standings, and the overall influence on forfeits.
Community Voting Highlights
Viewership base of this season has increased significantly since fans have been voting on official and unofficial polls actively, and participating in the community polls. One popular YouTube content creator explained how these voting patterns affect others:
Active Polls: People are voting heavily for the polls on the community tab which helps determine popular contestants.
Call to Action: Viewers are given a chance to vote on weekly evictions and the importance of doing so can impact the contestants’ scores.
Nikhil vs. Nabil: The Continuation of The Clash
This week’s focal the attention seemed to be on Nikhil and Nabil. New developments in the voting patterns are as explained below:
Nikhil in Comfort Zone
Nikhil has managed a dominating role while leading at the highest level as well:
Sympathy Wave: Coordinated strategical assaults from other contestants fostered engagement resulting in Nikhil’s votes increasing substantially.
Strategic Narrative: Contestants nominating Nikhil on eviction nights consecutively was because viewers’ sentiments were in favor of it and so masses voted in return.
Nabil’s Decline
Nabil used to be a title wouldn that is not the case anymore as the lead has begun widening:
Declining Popularity: For being safe for the a few weeks and not many nominations much of his support base quite literally vanished.
Negative Perception: Ruling on too many alliances and remaining bland contributed a significant decrease in votes.
Voting Percentages and Key Differences
It is interesting to note from the analysis that various polls conducted both on an official and unofficial level have shown shocking differences in the levels of support the competitors have garnered:
Nikhil’s system of thinking seems to be dominant as about 54% in one major poll have put him on the lead making Nikhil stand out.
Nabil is at 24% barely managing to keep up with Nikhil who has been expansionally growing.
Other Contestants: Other competitors such as Prerana and Yashmi are 15 and 7 percent respectively and they fall at lower positions without any effect to the competition.
These statistics also show that nearly all the battles in these elections have been one-sided in which Nikhil is the one who appears to be the winner of the majority of polls casted on many platforms.
Potential of Nikhil just overtime outnumbering every candidate
The rise in his popularity can be attributed to a number of different factors as follows:
Audience Empathy : There was a focus on Nikhil through nominations and votes which created such a perception over time that made viewers sympathize with him.
Game Strategy: He was proactive throughout the game and resisted pressure, which suggested that he was a candidate for the title.
Public Perception: Nikhil’s difficulties and hate that he received but still managed to perform was the reason people felt connected to him, which was an advantage to him.
Difficulties for Nabil as well as Other Contestants
The downward trend in Nabil’s popularity, coupled with his unappealing performance within weeks, threatens his chances of further advancement within the competition Getting started, he was proficient at:
Lack of Momentum: Several weeks between his nominations may have created a sense of disconnect between him and the audience.
Negative Alliances : Fans of the show didn’t seem to appreciate the idea of engaging with contestants who were not very popular and had a safer strategy in place.
In the meanwhile Prerana and Yashmi have no such luck as they have been underwhelming to say the least, limited interactions with the camera and little to no impact is hardly a recipe for success.
Audience Engagement: A Key Factor
The vast numbers of people who answered questions in unofficial polls and fan made threads show how well the audience was able to help make the show. Some notable points include:
Youtube Polls: Many people have given youtube polls hundreds of thousands of votes making it an accurate source of how popular a contestant is.
Website Discrepancies: Polls on official sites show different trends and forecast sometimes, but youtube still is widely considered to be the best source of opinion.
Predictions for the Week
With that statistical evidence, it is safe to say there is a slim chance the following will happen in the week twelve:
Nikhil: Focusing on being a strong title contender, coming first immediately in the polls.
Nabil: Coming in a distant first without having the chance to successfully recover.
Elimination Zone: The former mentioned contestants have the best chance of being eliminated as they have fewer votes.
Final Thoughts
Throughout the course of Bigg Boss Telugu season 8 during week 12 a massive turning point seemingly changed the entire dynamic of the competition allowing the voters to have a much larger impact than before. Nikhil became the most dominant after consistently winning votes portraying the portrayal of the majority’s sentiments.
