At the start, 15 contestants entered the house, while Hema got eliminated on Sunday. This made it 14 contestants in Bigg Boss house. However, to make it 15 again, Bigg Boss came up with wild card entry. This entry was made in the second week itself. The wild card contestant entered the house soon after Hema got eliminated.
The contestant who entered through the wild card is none other than Tamannah Simhadri. She became popular at the time when Tollywood was facing Me Too. She was also the Miss Transgender Mumbai. When carrying couch issue was raised by Sri Reddy, this wild card contestant also gained popularity in the media.
It looks like, Bigg Boss had taken this decision to counter the allegations of casting couch in Bigg Boss made by Anchor Swetha Reddy and Gayatri Gupta. However, no official confirmation had been given regarding this. Even if it's not true, anyone watching Bigg Boss and the controversies it went through might feel it as true.
