Krushna, the actor and comedian who entered Bigg Boss Telugu 10 as a last-minute addition, has made a startling claim in a recent interview: he was paid ₹30,000 per month by actor Rohith Naidu to engage in online trolling. The revelation came during an exclusive conversation with a regional news channel, where Krushna spoke candidly about his time in the house and the aftermath of his elimination after just two weeks. He said that while visiting a studio with his wife to collect costumes from Annapurna Studios, he spotted someone actively posting negative content about him — someone he believes was working under Rohith’s instructions. 'I’m not doing this for money,' Krushna stated, 'but I’m protecting my friend.' He described the arrangement as a straightforward transaction: pay for posts, no strings attached. His justification? 'They’re not hurting me. I’m free. And I get publicity.' He added that he didn’t need a PR team or any orchestrated campaign, he played genuine, without systems or vote manipulation. 'I played honest. No system. No votes. Just me.' The claim is now circulating fast across social media, with fans defending Krushna as a man standing by his friend. Others are calling it a classic reality TV power play. Where loyalty isn’t earned, it’s bought. What’s wild is that Krushna insists he didn’t even need a PR team. 'I played genuine. No system. No votes. Just me.' But if true, the implication is deeper: behind every viral takedown, a ₹30k monthly retainer may be at work. The show’s producers have not commented. The public remains divided.
