Abhijeet, Bindu Madhavi, and Navdeep will judge Bigg Boss Telugu 9’s Agni Test. During the process, Abhijeet reportedly clashed with a female contestant over her behavior.

Bigg Boss Telugu 9 is set to break new ground by holding a pre-show fire test to choose its common contestants, a debut move in the franchise. Over 100 people applied, and 15 were shortlisted for this challenging task. The judges, all previous Bigg Boss winners, will select the final three contestants from these 15.

The Agni Test involves five contestants per judge, and only those earning stars from all three judges advance. Ultimately, one contestant from each team will enter the Bigg Boss house.

Bigg Boss Telugu 9 is set to kick off on September 7, with fans getting an early glimpse of the Agni Test starting August 22 on Jio Hotstar. The new season brings together Abhijeet, Bindu Madhavi, and Navdeep as judges, with Sreemukhi hosting and Nagarjuna stepping into the spotlight as the chief anchor.
