Nevin to Manikuttan: Contestants who got a second chance in Bigg Boss Malayalam

Over the seasons, Bigg Boss Malayalam has witnessed several dramatic exits , some emotional, others impulsive. But what's kept viewers truly hooked are the unexpected second chances given to a few contestants. From emotional comebacks to strategic re-entries, these moments have added intense twists to the game. Here's a look at contestants like Nevin and Manikuttan who got a second shot at the Bigg Boss journey.

2/6

Dimpal Bhal


Also from Season 3, Dimpal Bhal temporarily exited the house after the unfortunate demise of her father on the 74th day. While many believed she would not return, Dimpal surprised everyone by re-entering the house to complete the game and fulfill her father’s dream. Her comeback was emotional and highly appreciated by fans.

3/6

Manikuttan


The Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 3 winner, Manikuttan, shocked everyone when he left the show midway, citing emotional stress and a mental breakdown. His unexpected return after just three days was one of the most applauded moments of the season, and it marked a turning point in his journey to eventual victory.


4/6

Nimisha


Season 4 saw an emotional moment when Nimisha was evicted. However, in a surprising twist, she was taken to a secret room instead. After spending a few days watching house events from there, she made a powerful return, well-informed and more determined than ever.

5/6

Cerena Ann

In Season 5, Cerena Ann also experienced the secret room twist. After her apparent eviction, she was moved to the secret room, where she observed the house for a day before making a dramatic return.

6/6

Nevin

In the most recent season, contestant Nevin stormed out after a conflict involving housemates Anumol and Gizele. Upset over Bigg Boss not taking strict action, Nevin insisted on leaving. Despite fellow contestants trying to stop him, he walked out when Bigg Boss opened the main gate. However, just a day later, he returned to the house, expressing regret over his impulsive decision and apologizing to everyone.
