Meet The Second Contestant to be Evicted from Bigg Boss Telugu 8

In a surprising turn of events Shekhar Basha was evicted from Bigg Boss Telugu 8 during the second week's elimination episode. The episode was filmed recently and insiders have confirmed this update.

Shekhar Basha and Bezawada Bebakka entered the Bigg Boss house together when the show began on September 1. However Bezawada Bebakka was eliminated in the first week and Shekhar Basha followed suit this week.

Before the weekend episode was filmed there were rumors that Prithviraj might be eliminated due to his lack of contribution to the show. Additionally Aditya Om's name was mentioned as he seemed unable to connect with the show's concept. Despite receiving a reasonable number of votes Shekhar Basha was the one eliminated.
