Why Was Diwakar Eliminated?
Despite having a dedicated fanbase, Diwakar received the fewest votes this week. His exit wasn’t entirely unexpected, given the controversy surrounding his comment about “lack of education and village mystery” during a heated argument with fellow contestant Ramya Ju.
The remark didn’t sit well with viewers, triggering backlash online. Some social media users accused him of making caste-based comments, demanding his immediate exit. While his supporters argued the statement was misunderstood, the damage to his public image had already impacted voting patterns.
This week featured the season’s longest nomination list with 12 contestants facing eviction, including Gana Vinoth, Sabarinathan, Kamarudeen, Vikkals Vikram, and others. With Praveen Rajdev already eliminated earlier, Diwakar’s exit made it a double-elimination shocker.
The Controversy That Changed Everything
From the beginning of this season, Diwakar stood out with his confident personality and humor. However, his journey was marked by frequent nominations and controversial moments. Host Vijay Sethupathi has repeatedly warned contestants about their conduct, yet harsh language and heated arguments continue dominating the show.
The watermelon star’s elimination has intensified calls from political groups demanding the show’s ban, citing that contestants are “behaving like children.” Despite weekly guidance from the host, the house dynamics remain volatile.
What’s Next for Bigg Boss Tamil 9?
The remaining contestants—including Gana Vinoth, Vijay Baru, Thushar, Gani Thiru, Sabari Nathan, Ramya Ju, Viyana, Vikkals Vikram, Kamarudeen, and Akori Kalaiyarasan—will need to recalibrate their strategies now that Diwakar is gone.
Fans are eagerly awaiting updates about next week’s nominations and tasks. Will the house atmosphere improve, or will more controversial moments emerge? Only time will tell.
