Bigg Boss Tamil Eviction: How Much Money Will Paaru & Kamrudin Get After Controversial Elimination?

The latest episode of Bigg Boss Tamil 9 delivered one of the most dramatic moments of the season, leaving viewers stunned and social media buzzing with reactions. What was expected to be a high-stakes "ticket to finale" task turned into a controversial turning point, as host Vijay Sethupathi stepped in with a stern decision that altered the course of the game for two prominent contestants - Kamarudin and VJ Paaru.

The task, designed to test endurance and mental resilience, quickly spiralled out of control. During an intense car task, tempers flared and boundaries appeared to blur. Kamarudin and VJ Paaru pushed Sandra out of the car and left her injured, an act that many viewers felt crossed the line from competitive spirit into unsafe conduct.

Clips from the episode spread rapidly across social media platforms, triggering heated debates among fans and critics alike. While some argued that the task itself encouraged aggression, a large section of netizens slammed the contestants for what they described as irresponsible behaviour.

Taking note of the backlash and the seriousness of the incident, Vijay Sethupathi addressed the issue head-on during the weekend episode. In a firm yet measured tone, the host made it clear that entertainment could not come at the cost of safety or discipline. After hearing the explanations, he issued a "red card" to both Kamarudin and VJ Paaru, effectively pushing them out of the competition.

The decision sent shockwaves through the house, with fellow contestants visibly emotional and stunned by the sudden turn of events.

For Kamarudin, the exit marked a controversial end to a journey that began on a relatively calm note. A familiar face for Tamil television audiences, he rose to prominence through his role in the Vijay TV serial Mahanadhi. Known for his subtle acting and emotional depth, the Chennai-born actor entered the Bigg Boss house with a boy-next-door image and a quiet confidence.

Initially choosing to observe rather than dominate, Kamarudin slowly revealed his competitive side as the weeks passed, especially during physically demanding tasks. While his honesty won him admirers, his inability to always control aggression during high-pressure moments became a point of criticism, ultimately culminating in the incident that led to his disqualification.

VJ Paaru, on the other hand, brought a very different energy to the house. Born Parvathy Saran and hailing from Madurai, she entered the show with prior reality TV experience and a reputation for being outspoken. As a video jockey, anchor and digital content creator, Paaru was no stranger to the spotlight.

Her earlier stint on Survivor Tamil had already established her as a fierce competitor. Inside the Bigg Boss Tamil 9 house, she emerged as a dominant voice - articulate, assertive and unafraid to challenge others. While supporters praised her clarity and boldness, detractors felt her confrontational style often escalated conflicts.

How Much Will Vijay TV Pay VJ Paaru and Kamrudin?

Only after their sudden exits did discussions shift to another topic that intrigued fans - how much the two contestants earned during their time on the show. According to a report in The Times of India, VJ Paaru was reportedly paid around Rs 1.5 lakh per week. Having spent approximately 13 weeks in the house, her estimated earnings are said to be close to Rs 19.5 lakh. Kamarudin, meanwhile, was reportedly earning about Rs 1 lakh per week, which places his estimated total earnings at around Rs 13 lakh for a similar duration.
