As Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 gets closer to its long-awaited grand finale, the housemates are now more interested in how the other competitors are going to do. The last episode was about two very different journeys: Kalyan's long rise from being the underdog to being a finalist and Sanjana's fantastic, dramatic run that everyone was talking about.

Kalyan: A Quiet Rise to the Top

Kalyan hasn't been popular right away; in fact, he's been getting better and better since he walked into the Bigg Boss house. At first, he looked like a regular person on TV. He was so sad, alone, and unsure of himself that he almost gave up, especially when his best friends died one by one.

Instead of trusting his gut, Kalyan watched, changed, and made his strategy better. His friends were honest with him, so he could quickly see what he was doing wrong and fix it.He was able to stay focused and trust his game as captain, which made his life better.He learned how to make better choices when he was in charge, and he showed that he could keep cool even when everyone was watching.

He transformed when he became the last captain and the first person to cross the finish line. Kalyan's path has come to mean being smart, strong, and emotionally stable.

Sanjana: Drama, Power, and Feelings

But it was clear what Sanjana would do next.People were drawn to her right away because she was so full of energy and vitality.She was the first captain of the year, and the other captains did what she said. She made sure to be there for almost everything important that happened in the house. Sanjana was often in the middle of things, whether they were funny pranks, fights, or serious talks.

She went on to say that Bigg Boss gave her a second chance and helped her feel better about herself and get her confidence back. This was one of the best things that happened to her while she was gone. People liked that she was open about her flaws since it made her seem different and understanding. She was a strategist, a caretaker, a troublemaker, and a tough opponent all season long.

But her strong ideas and honest comments often got her in trouble, even with friends. She cried a lot during these fights, which showed how much her bad behavior upset her. Sanjana, on the other hand, never gave up. She didn't have a lot of friends. She was able to get through hard times by trusting her gut, believing in herself, and being strong mentally.

Her holiday montage contains a lot of important things in it, such as funny pranks, secret room turns, and family moments that mean a lot to her. There were two poignant stories on the show: one about her relationship with her son and the second about how she got along with another competitor named Immanuel. They told her what they liked and didn't like about her.

Kalyan and Sanjana are both on Bigg Boss, but they play it in very different ways.One person stayed calm, strong, and adaptable without saying a word, whereas the other person loved feeling, disputing, and making a difference. As the season comes to a close, they've learned that people with different personalities can do well in the same competitive field.

People aren't simply thinking about who should win the trophy as the big finale gets near. They are also thinking about how the visits have changed how Bigg Boss Telugu 9 feels in ways that will last for a long time.
