Bigg Boss Tamil 10: Shama Evicted on Day 50 After Declining to Use Her Eviction-Free Pass

NOWLIVO Television | October 26, 2026 | Tamil edition.

Bigg Boss Tamil Season 10 has recorded a new elimination: commoner contestant Shama left the house on Day 50, according to an October 25 late-evening report. The result brings a definite outcome to a weekend storyline that had centered on the availability of eviction-free passes. Earlier that day, promotional footage showed guest host Ramya Krishnan questioning contestants about whether they would use their passes to protect themselves or others.

The elimination is the key new fact. Predictions about who might leave circulated before the episode, with Shama and Muthazhagi both discussed in entertainment coverage. Those predictions were not results when published. By 10:34 p.m. IST on October 25, a separate Times of India report stated that Shama had been evicted on Day 50. That later account should take priority over the earlier suspense-driven headlines.

The confirmed Day 50 departure

The late report identifies Shama as a commoner participant whose journey ended during the weekend elimination. It does not provide certified vote totals, a complete tally of the nominated contestants or a transcript of her farewell. Those details should not be reconstructed from fan polls or from the emotional tone of social-media comments. The reported outcome is clear even though some surrounding numerical information remains unavailable.

Her departure also comes during a week in which the programme placed unusual attention on protection mechanisms. An eviction-free pass is a valuable advantage only when its rules are satisfied and the holder chooses to activate it at the required point. The weekend coverage makes the choice around the pass central to how Shama’s exit is being discussed, but it does not justify inventing a hidden production decision or an undisclosed voting margin.

What Ramya Krishnan asked in the promo

A separate October 25 report described a preview in which Ramya identified four contestants in the danger zone: Shama, Muthazhagi, Akshitha and Asmitha. She then turned to Jason and TTF Vasan, both described as holding eviction-free passes, and asked whether either would use that advantage to save someone at risk. The published recap says Vasan declined at that moment, while Ramya pressed him to consider the possibility.

The presenter also addressed Shama, who was herself described as holding a pass, and asked whether she intended to use it for her own protection. Shama’s response in the promotional account was that she was not using it yet. That answer was made before the outcome was announced. It is not evidence that she knew she would be eliminated, nor does it show how much information contestants had about the vote when the question was posed.

The pass becomes part of the elimination story

Filmibeat’s October 25 report said Shama had not activated the pass and that her departure was expected after the voting round. Tamil-language coverage also focused on the apparent contradiction between possessing protection and leaving the competition. The later Day 50 eviction report confirms the departure itself, while the earlier pass reports explain why the result drew additional interest.

The sequence matters: first came an edited preview showing the decision point, then predictive reporting, then a reported elimination. A headline written after the outcome can accurately connect those developments, but it should not treat the early prediction as a second independent confirmation of the result. Nor can an unofficial poll be used to assert that the broadcaster miscounted votes.

Audience discussion shows disagreement, not a single verdict

Publicly visible October 25 comments in a Tamil Bigg Boss discussion forum reflected sharply different reactions. Some commenters argued that Shama contributed more to the programme than contestants who survived. Others questioned why she did not activate the protection she held. A separate thread included users defending the result and others describing it as unfair. These are examples of identifiable online discussion, not a scientific measure of the entire audience.

One recurring question was whether the pass had to be used before the field was narrowed to the final endangered contestants. That uncertainty helps explain why the elimination prompted debate, but forum interpretations cannot replace the exact rules given on the broadcast. No verified official vote percentages or independent audit of the pass procedure were available in the sources reviewed for this article.

A distinct development from the Jason confrontation

The previous NOWLIVO Tamil report focused on Ramya confronting Jason about remarks made during his argument with Muniyamma. That was a host-versus-contestant dispute. Shama’s Day 50 exit is a separate development with a different result, different people at its center and a concrete change to the contestant field. It is therefore not a repeat of the earlier controversy simply because the same weekend host appears in both stories.

The remaining housemates will continue without Shama, while the public conversation about when a contestant should spend an immunity advantage is likely to persist. The news value lies in the actual elimination and the reported choice not to activate the pass, rather than in declaring that any particular strategy was objectively right or wrong.

The verified position after the weekend

Shama has been reported evicted on Day 50. Earlier coverage establishes that she was asked about using an eviction-free pass and did not activate it at that point. It does not establish a precise vote margin, an official explanation of every pass condition or a representative audience verdict. Those distinctions keep a high-interest elimination story anchored to what the available reports actually show.
