Bigg Boss Tamil Season 9: Housemates target Diwaker over snoring and acting skills
Drama unfolds early in Bigg Boss Tamil Season 9 as contestants clash with newcomer Diwakar, citing his loud snoring and disputed acting credentials as sources of tension.
Less than 24 hours into the show, Praveen Raj Dev confronted Diwakar over his late-night snoring, accusing him of disrupting others’ sleep. While Diwakar defended himself—saying he had alerted housemates beforehand—Praveen claimed the disturbance persisted and blamed Diwakar for provoking conflict.
The friction escalated when Kamarudin questioned Diwakar’s acting skills, challenging him to prove his capability with impromptu performance demands. Diwakar appeared uncomfortable with the ordeal and later felt he was being unfairly cornered.
This is not Diwakar’s first clash. From the very first night, he sparred with Praveen over his professional title—Praveen asked how a physiotherapist could claim to be a “doctor,” prompting a heated exchange. In the show’s preview, Diwakar was also among those receiving the highest number of “unfit” votes from fellow contestants in a special early-task twist.
Diwakar, popularly known on social media as the “Watermelon Star,” has described himself as a physiotherapist and creator. He entered the Bigg Boss house citing dual motivations: advancing his media career and eventually setting up a physiotherapy hospital using any winnings.
