BREAKING: Here's what the NEW prize money for Bigg Boss 10 is!

Bigg Boss 10 had promised to give its winner a whopping sum of Rs 50 lakhs like every year. But following Nitibha Kaul's medallion win and Swami Om taking a two week safety at the cost of Rs 10 lakhs, the prize money had reduced to a relatively lower Rs 15 lakhs.

This week, Bigg Boss gave the contestants a chance to win back the lost prize money. Later in the day, Bigg Boss calls Rohan and Mona in the confession where he asks them to attribute a certain against the names of the rest of housemates. Accrediting the least amount to Om Swami and Nitibha, the two bid the lowest on them. Lopa and Manveer are attributed the highest amount followed by Manu and Bani. Bigg Boss tells Rohan and Mona that they cannot disclose the amount to the rest of the contestants and if they do so, the task will be terminated. Elaborating on the task,  Bigg Boss tells Rohan and Mona that they will act as the jailers in Maalgaadi task while the rest of the housemates will be the prisoners. 

Rohan and Mona are required to continuously rotate the levers placed near the engine while the prisoners have to survive for a considerable amount of time inside the jail. After every siren, Rohan and Mona will get a chance to free one prisoner and deliver him/her to Bigg Boss. If they become successful in doing so, the amount attributed to that particular contestant will be added to the overall winning amount. If the prisoners free themselves by their own will, they will become the contenders for this week’s captaincy task. The frequency of the siren will directly be proportional to the speed of the train.

Eventually, here's who all manage to add in more moolah. Lopamudra adds Rs 11 lakhs, Manveer adds around Rs 10 lakhs, Manu adds Rs 7 lakhs and Nitibha also adds Rs 1 lakh. So in total, the total sum that increased was about Rs 29 lakhs. Eventually now, the prize money is Rs 43,99,206!
