The remaining task from the previous day, for the selection of the next captain of the house, took place on the 26th day. On this day, Srihan, Rohit and Arohi got eliminated from the captaincy race, leaving behind Sri Satya, Keerthy and Sudeepa as the finalists for being the next captain.
They were given the task to fill a stand with “CAPTAIN” letters, in the garden area, which they had to do so, by running from one end – where the letters were – to the other end – where they had to hang the letters, on blocks. They couldn’t run or walk on the round and half to walk only using these blocks, by not putting their feet on the ground. There was tough competition between the three, with Sri Satya being in the lead in the beginning. However, she seemed to have lost out on her stamina in the end, ultimately leading to Keerthi becoming the next captain and the first female captain of the sixth season of Bigg Boss Telugu.
The second task of the day was for the housemates to select the worst performer of the week, based on their performance in the task, this housemate would be sent to jail. Arjun and Chanti got the most number of votes, with Arjun getting more votes, and being sent to jail in the end. He was criticized for playing a partial game in Hotel Vs. Hotel, where he gave away money to only Sri Satya, and no one else.
