Is Nagarjuna better host of Bigg Boss Telugu than Jr NTR and Nani? Here is what viewers say

Akkineni Nagarjuna has shown his fantastic hosting skills on the launch episode of Bigg Boss Telugu 3 on Sunday. Viewers feel that his performance on this opening episode was far better than Junior NTR and Nani's.

Junior NTR hosted the first season of Bigg Boss Telugu and it was hit with the audience. But the actor was nervous during the launch and a few other initial episodes. He could not come back on the second season of the show due to his prior commitments. The makers brought in Nani as replacement in the next season.

Nani was also nervous in the initial days of Bigg Boss Telugu 2, but he performed better than Junior NTR. However, he was trolled heavily by the audience, especially Jr NTR fans. He was humiliated so much on the social media that he declined to come back on the third season of Bigg Boss Telugu.

The makers had a tough time finding a suitable host for Bigg Boss Telugu, as they approached several celebs including Chiranjeevi and Venkatesh. But finally, Akkineni Nagarjuna was brought on board as the host of the season three of the show. Many were curious to see how he will perform.

Akkineni Nagarjuna launched Bigg Boss Telugu 3 and introduced 15 contestants on Sunday. He was cool and handled the situation very jovially. At times, he looked overacting, but he never showed nervousness. The audiences were very impressed with the his hosting skills. This is what they have to say about him.

All that I liked in #BiggBossTelugu3 yesterday was #Nagarjuna He did his best to raise expectations.. Seemed a bit overstaged from d contestant's side though.. Saw a bit.. Almost all were new faces.. Am not much into telugu TV.. N most r from there.. @iamnagarjuna @StarMaa

Why that‏ @HeeZG0ne

Nagarjuna with that intro has hit the first ball for a six out of the stadium. Guess @23_rahulr has came up with this idea. Good job @iamnagarjuna#BiggBossTelugu3

.@iamnagarjuna is damn good as the host so far. Very smart move to address the trolls on him right at the start. Except Jaffar I've never heard of any of the other contestants so far. Maybe I am living under a rock. #BiggBossTelugu3
