The first elimination of Bigg Boss Telugu was packed with everything that the audience expected, barring one thing the eviction itself. Sampoornesh Babu aka Sampoo, who was first to be elected captain of Bigg Boss Telugu season 1, put up a show of sorts. He was visibly upset over being isolated from the rest. He was given medical assistance, but with the help of Dhanraj, he expressed his wish to be eliminated from the house, at the end of the next week, given the first week's nominations were already fixed.
