The 71st day of Bigg Boss Telugu 3 witnessed a brand task named 'Ralle Ratnalu' for the nominations. As per this task, the contestants were supposed to give up the luxuries and lead a rustic life in the garden area. They were not allowed to enter the house and use the minimum amenities placed outside the house till the end of the task. They have to buy things for their need, by selling the stones to Sreemukhi, the captain of the house.
As per the task Ralle Ratnalu, the housemates had to collect stones with labels 20, 50, 100 and 200 from the shower that falls from the sky at intervals and stop it once they hear the buzzer sound. The contestant, who collects less worth of stones, will be disqualified from the task and nominated for elimination from Bigg Boss Telugu 3 this week. Captain Sreemukhi will take the decision at crucial times.
