Bigg Boss Telugu 5 finale- From Alia Bhatt's 'I love you' to Sunny dedicating the trophy to his mother: Special moments from the star-studded gala show

Bigg Boss Telugu 5 grand finale on Sunday (December 19) was special for many reasons. From Ranbir Kapoor and Alia Bhatt's debut appearance on a Telugu TV show to Sunny dedicating his victory to his mother, here's a look back at the most special moments of the grand gala finale.

Former contestants shared their life after Bigg Boss and also name their winner. Sreerama Chandra and Sunny enjoyed a huge support. While Hamida shared she forgot to make even transactions after stepping out of the house. Uma Devi got emotional talking about her family's support. Interestingly, when Sarayu asked host Nagarjuna for a date, he said, "Let's go after the show".

Ace filmmaker SS Rajamouli, director Ayan Mukherjee, Ranbir Kapoor, and Alia Bhatt were undoubtedly the show stealers of the show. The finalists were overwhelmed while Sunny almost fainted when Alia Bhatt said, "I love you Sunny". She also repeated popular Balakrishna's dialogue 'Dabidi Dibide', too.

Maanas, one of the finalists, has won the 'Brahmastra' from SS Rajamouli who was impressed with his answer in the Brahmastra task. In the task, the finalists had to reveal their ultimate special power. Maanas said patience and perseverance is his special power.

Ace music composer Devi Sri Prasad (DSP) and actress Rashmika Mandanna played a quick rapid-fire with the five finalists - Sunny, Maanas, Shanmukh, Siri and Sreerama Chandra. DSP and Rashmika have posed some interesting questions and the finalists had to give some honest answers.

For the first of its kind, Bigg Boss Telugu 5 finale had a special drone eviction. Five drones with the picture of a finalist attached to them flew in the air and eventually, the drone with Siri's picture, flew out of the BB house. Siri got evicted from the show. In her interaction with host Nagarjuna, Siri said she sensed her eviction and also her mother might be worried about her equation with Shanmukh probably influenced by her relatives and neighbours in her hometown.

Bigg Boss Telugu 2 host Nani entered the BB house and offered the finalists a silver box with cash in it. He tried to convince them but none of them were ready to accept. Nani, Sai Pallavi, and Krithi Shetty witnessed Maanas' eviction from the finale.

Popular actor and Nagarjuna's son Naga Chaitanya entered the house with a 'golden briefcase' and tried to lure Sunny, Sreerama Chandra and Shanmukh into quitting the show with the briefcase. However, none accepted the offer. Naga Chaitanya witnessed Sreerama Chandra's eviction from the finale. He dedicated a special song to his mother.

Actress Faria Abdullah gave the most deciding moment a twist. Both Sunny and Shanmukh had to dip their hands into a box. Against the expectations, Sunny and Shanmukh's hands were coloured blue. This left the finalists and everyone on tenterhooks.

Host Nagarjuna declares Sunny as the winner of the show. "This moment is surreal. Thanks to everyone including 19 contestants for making me a winner. I can't forget this memorable journey. I love you Nag sir. Alia Bhatt's 'I love you' was yet another biggest gift. I promise to entertain all the time with the motivation of Nagarjuna sir. My mom Kalavathi's letter was a huge motivation. I dedicate this cup to my mom, my first god," said overwhelmed Sunny.
