From sudden suspension of shoot to Sajina-Firoz being expelled from the show: Here's a quick recap of Bigg Boss Malayalam 3

The much-awaited grand finale of the Bigg Boss Malayalam is soon to be aired. All the ex-contestants and finalists have reached Chennai, where the finale shoot is going to take place. From the grand launch to the unexpected suspension, the season was eventful. Ahead of the gala finale, here is a quick recap of Bigg Boss Malayalam 3.

The third season of Bigg Boss Malayalam 3 had a grand launch on Valentine's Day (February 14). From TV celebs to sports personalities, the show welcomed 14 contestants from different walks of life.

The show had 4 wildcard entries-TV couples Sajina and Firoz Khan, Michelle Ann, Angel Thomas, and Remya Panicker-this season.

Remya entered the reality show as a wildcard entrant and got evicted after a couple of weeks. Later, on the 50th day, she made a surprise re-entry into the game. However, she got evicted in the last weeks of the game.

Contestants Sajina and Firoz Khan got expelled from the show for violating the rules of the show. The host lashed out at the contestants for threatening inmate Remya Paniker of revealing one of her personal things.

Contestant Manikuttan made an exit from the show stating that he is afraid to continue the game. However, he made a comeback after three days.

Contestant Dimpal Bhal's father passed away while the show was going on and she left the house soon after the news reached the BB house. She made a re-entry recently stating that it was her father's wish to see her succeed in the show.

Bigg Boss Malayalam 3 has been temporarily suspended due to the second wave of the COVID-19 outbreak.

"This is Bigg Boss. In light of the widespread COVID-19 and lockdown, we are temporarily stopping the telecast of the show. Hopefully, we shall resume the show once the situation permits," Bigg Boss announced towards the end of the 96th episode.

Even though the show got suspended midway, the team has conducted a public vote. The one, who got the highest vote, will be soon announced as the title winner of the season. Finalists Anoop Krishnan, Rithu Manthra, Noby Marcose, Ramzan Muhammed, Manikuttan, Kidilam Firoz, Sai Vishnu, and Dimpal Bhal are in the final round of the game.
