Shilpa Chakravarthy, Punarnavi Bhupalam, Mahesh Vitta, Himaja Reddy and Sreemukhi were nominated for elimination from the house of Akkineni Nagarjuna's Bigg Boss Telugu 3.
As the 50th episode began, the housemates were seen upset with Ali Reza's elimination. After consoling each other, they got back to their assigned tasks. Later, Bigg boss advised the contestants to focus on the game, become serious about the nominations and get ready to compete for the finale.
Kick-starting the nomination process, Bigg boss divided all the housemates into two groups. One group includes Sreemukhi, Himaja, Mahesh, Ravikrishna and Siva Jyothi, while Varun, Vithika, Rahul, Punarnavi and Shilpa are in the other group. He said that each one of them should nominate two contestants from the opposite group, burn their photos and reveal the reasons for nominating them.
All the housemates named two contestants each and gave reasons for nominating them. Finally, Bigg boss revealed that Shilpa, Punarnavi, Mahesh, Himaja, Ravikrishna and Sreemukhi were nominated for the elimination from Bigg Boss Telugu 3 in the eighth week. He asked captain Baba Bhaskar to save one of them. Baskar saved Ravikrishna for performing the tasks genuinely.
