Jr NTR was last seen hosting Bigg Boss Telugu season 1 and he was widely accepted by the Telugu telly audience. Nagarjuna Akkineni stepped into Bigg Boss Telugu as a host from season 3. Meanwhile, Chiranjeevi Konidela hosted the previous fourth edition of Meelo Evaru Koteeswarudu. He made his Telugu TV debut with the show which did not fare as expected in terms of TVRs (television ratings) when compared to its earlier seasons.
