Nandamuri Balakrishna replacing Nagarjuna Akkineni as new host of Bigg Boss Season 9?
Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 has already been creating buzz online even before the official launch announcement. After a relatively slow Season 8, fans of the reality TV show are eagerly awaiting the new season. While Nagarjuna has been the long-time host of the show, reports suggested that the makers were considering Nandamuri Balakrishna as the new host. However, according to OTTPlay, the makers have renewed their contract with the Kuberaa actor. Nagarjuna has reportedly been paid a hefty amount to return as the host once again. He has been anchoring the show for the past six years. Earlier, there were also reports that Vijay Deverakonda was in talks with the makers of Bigg Boss Telugu 9 to take on hosting duties. But those reports were never officially confirmed. Bigg Boss Telugu first aired in 2017 and has completed eight seasons so far. Jr NTR hosted the inaugural season. Nani stepped in as the host for Season 2. From the third season onwards, Nagarjuna has been hosting the show. Seasons 2 and 6 included a mix of celebrities and common people as contestants. Bigg Boss Telugu Season 9 is likely to begin in September 2025. A few months ago, 123Telugu reported that Babloo is the first confirmed contestant. Popularly known as Bumchick Babloo, he is an actor and comedian active in the Telugu entertainment scene. He is known for his digital content, especially his comedy videos on YouTube and Instagram. His sketches and funny stories have earned him a large following online. Interestingly, Babloo was earlier considered for a previous season of the show but did not make it to the final list. This time, however, the makers have locked his entry. His inclusion is expected to add a dose of humor to the upcoming season. Reports also suggest that several other popular faces might be joining him. Their identities, however, are being kept a secret for now to maintain suspense before the premiere.

No law should mandate pvt sector job quota: Min
1 2 Patna: Public health and engineering department (PHED) minister Neeraj Kumar Singh Babloo on Monday said no legislation should be imposed on the private sector requiring it to implement job reservations . "The private sector is a different entity. It has its own system to run the units that fall in it," Babloo told reporters when asked about a letter sent by leader of the opposition in state assembly, Tejashwi Prasad Yadav , to Prime Minister (PM) Narendra Modi. In the letter, Tejashwi urged the PM to take steps to introduce job quotas in the private sector as well. Babloo was speaking at a press conference held at the BJP's state headquarters in Patna, where he announced plans to commemorate the birth anniversary of Maharana Pratap at the Bapu Sabhagar auditorium on May 9. He was accompanied by two other BJP ministers, Santosh Kumar Singh and Raju Kumar Singh. Babloo informed the reporters that Union minister Gajendra Singh Shekhawat had agreed to be the chief guest at the event, which has been named the ' Rana Bhama Sammelan '. The gathering will primarily involve members of the Rajput and trading communities. Defence minister Rajnath Singh will address the audience virtually. Babloo added that active preparations were underway to ensure enthusiastic participation from all 38 districts of the state.

Serial Burglar from MP Arrested in Delhi; Linked to Crimes Across Multiple States
New Delhi: A man who frequently travelled from Madhya Pradesh to Delhi to commit burglaries has been arrested by Delhi Police. Identified as Babloo, a 32-year-old resident of Ozhar village in Barwani district, Madhya Pradesh, the accused is also wanted in Gujarat and Maharashtra for multiple crimes, including violations of the Arms Act, police said. According to police, Babloo and his associates allegedly broke into a house in Sagarpur on the night of April 16, stealing approximately 500 grams of gold, silver articles, and ₹50,000 in cash. A case was registered under Sections 305 and 331 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).

Further analysis revealed the gang used a motorcycle later found to have been stolen from Mayapuri the same evening. To mislead investigators, the suspects took a circuitous route from their rented accommodation in Nihal Vihar to locations in Dhaula Kuan and Mayapuri before heading to the crime scene, said DCP (south west) Surendra Choudhary. Through technical surveillance and mobile tracking, Babloo was traced and apprehended in his native village, Badipura in Ozhar. During interrogation, he confessed and disclosed the identities of his two accomplices—both relatives from Umarti, Madhya Pradesh—who are currently on the run. The accused have a history of burglaries across multiple states and are on the wanted list in Gujarat and Maharashtra. While in police custody, Babloo led officers to the recovery of stolen gold hidden in his village. Police also seized a set of specialised burglary tools, including scissors modified into lock-picking instruments. Babloo, who dropped out after class V, learned lock-breaking skills early in life and initially committed petty thefts before graduating to more sophisticated crimes. He has a previous arrest under the Arms Act by Delhi's Special Cell in 2021 and is also wanted in Gujarat under the same law.
