Bigg Boss Malayalam 8: Team Purple Wins Round Two as Yellow Faces Another Exclusion
Team Purple wins again as the weekly task intensifies
Bigg Boss Malayalam Season 8 has produced a new result in its ongoing task marathon: Team Purple won the second round, while Team Yellow was left facing another difficult internal decision. The result was detailed in an October 29 report from The Times of India, published at 2:45 pm IST. It follows an earlier first-round setback for the Yellow side but introduces a new contest, a dispute about the rules and another consequence for the losing team.
This is not a repeat of the opening-round report. The second stage tested coordination with glass pyramids, a moving plank, a relay of personal items and a final flag placement. The decision was contested, and Rahul Easwar, acting as judge, read the task instructions before declaring the winner.
How the glass-pyramid challenge worked
Two contestants from each side had to work together to build a pyramid using inverted glasses on a plank fitted to a track. Team Yellow selected Aishwarya and Neha, while Team Purple sent Mridhula and Komban. The players stood at opposite ends of the track and took turns drawing the plank toward themselves as they positioned the glasses.
The structure began with five inverted glasses at the base, followed by four in the next row and progressively smaller rows until a single glass completed the top. A fallen glass required the team to restart the arrangement. That rule turned a seemingly simple stacking exercise into a test of timing and controlled movement.
The relay after the pyramid mattered too
Finishing the pyramid was only the first major step. The task then required one player to run and ring a bell, while the other teammates collected flags and took turns transporting five items belonging to their own side from the house to assigned spots in the garden. Each player could place one item before passing the flag onward.
The winner was the team that completed all required stages and placed its flag in the holder first. A fast pyramid therefore did not guarantee victory. The relay rewarded teams that could coordinate the hand-off, select the correct belongings and finish the precise final action without losing time.
Yellow questions the finish as Purple claims the result
Team Yellow argued that its players had completed the pyramid and rung the bell before their rivals. Its members also questioned whether Purple had positioned the flag correctly. These were objections made by contestants after the task, not independent proof that the result was wrong.
The disagreement made the rulebook central to the episode. When a contest has several stages, participants can remember the moment they first pulled ahead and overlook a later condition. That is why the exact wording about the last item and flag holder became more important than the impression of who looked faster at the bell.
Rahul Easwar reads the rule and announces Purple
Rahul Easwar, serving as the judge, read the task letter and clarified that all five items had to be deposited and the flag placed in its holder. There was no additional requirement to ring the bell after the flag was placed. The items were also checked to confirm that the teams had moved their own belongings.
After this review, Rahul declared Team Purple the winner of the second round. The Times of India account reports that decision as the task result, while preserving the fact that Team Yellow had raised objections. No later reversal was established in the reporting reviewed for this pack.
A second loss brings another exclusion decision
The consequence matters because Team Yellow had already lost the opening round of the marathon. Following that first defeat, the group was required to remove one of its own members from further participation and chose RJ Anjali. The new defeat means the side must again decide whom to exclude from the next round, according to the October 29 report.
That is a difficult form of pressure. A team may believe its strongest performer gives it the best chance to recover, yet the decision about who should sit out can damage relationships. The new exclusion had not been confirmed by the source at publication time, so it would be premature to name the next person as if the decision were final.
Why this is more than a simple win-loss update
The second-round result affects both momentum and the number of participants available for future stages. Team Purple has a new victory to build on, while Team Yellow must manage frustration over the disputed finish and the practical loss of another teammate. Those two effects may be more important than the speed of the glass pyramid alone.
The result also puts the role of the judge in focus. Rahul’s reading of the task letter supplied the immediate explanation for the ruling, but the housemates still have to live with the decision. Contestants may accept the formal outcome while disagreeing over whether the instructions were understood equally during play.
What the reporting does not establish
The October 29 report provides a concrete second-round winner and describes the next penalty, but it does not announce a new eviction from the show, a final captaincy winner or the identity of the next excluded Yellow teammate. Nor does it supply verified audience voting numbers. An internal task exclusion should not be presented as a public-vote elimination.
The next material update will be Yellow’s selection and the third-round performance, especially if the reduced team can recover. For now, Purple’s win and the unresolved exclusion choice are the meaningful developments. The result advances the weekly competition beyond the morning’s opening-round account without pretending that the entire task marathon has already been decided.
