Bigg Boss Malayalam 8 just flipped the weekend eviction script. The show delivered its first mass eviction, sent six contestants out of the house, and brought back one of its most talked-about twists: the secret room.
The night left fans with two clear stories. Six journeys ended, while Mridhula and Anjali walked straight from eviction into a second chance.
How the garden task played out
Four housemates — Mridhula, Anjali, Eldho and Aishwarya — were called to the garden area for an eviction challenge. Each had a rock-like structure in front of them. The rule was simple: pour water on the rock and wait for the colour to appear. Green meant safe, red meant out.
Before the task began, Bigg Boss asked the four to talk about their journeys. Eldho said he had given the game his best. Aishwarya said she was ready to accept whatever the audience had decided. Mridhula described making it this far as a blessing and added that she still had a lot to do as a gamer if she got the chance to stay.
Then came the twist. The liquid under Mridhula’s rock turned red, pointing to eviction. In the final round, Anjali was declared out. At that moment, it looked like both were heading home.
The secret room opens again
Instead, Bigg Boss sent the pair to the secret room and announced they had been given another chance in the game. Anjali said, “For a second, I thought everything was over. Thank you so much, Bigg Boss.”
The secret room is a Bigg Boss trademark. Contestants are taken out of the main house but remain inside the game, watching their fellow housemates and returning later with a strategy. That changes the power balance — and gives viewers a reason to stay glued to the next episode.
Who left in the mass eviction
The mass eviction single-handedly reshaped the Bigg Boss Malayalam 8 house:
- Sumesh
- Gayathri
- Loletta
- Rakesh
- Jaseela
- Sreelakshmi
The eviction task spared Eldho and Aishwarya from the exit list, but it created a rare situation: two contestants who were effectively declared out are still in the game, just not in the main house.
What this means for the rest of the season
The first mass eviction clears the house fast, which usually forces remaining contestants to form new equations quickly. With two evicted contenders watching from the secret room, every conversation in the house now carries extra risk. The viewers also get a storyline that can stretch across multiple episodes instead of a clean goodbye.
For fans, the next question is obvious. Will Mridhula and Anjali return with an advantage, or will their second chance end before they step back in? With the first mass eviction done, Bigg Boss Malayalam 8 has opened a new phase — and the secret room could decide how it plays out.
