Four Contestants Battle for the Ticket to Finale

The week’s biggest highlight was the much-awaited Ticket to Finale task, featuring four strong contenders: Ashnoor Kaur, Pranit More, Gaurav Khanna, and Farrhana Bhatt. 

As per early reports, the task was designed to test a contestant’s endurance, balance, mental stability, and pressure-handling ability.

Set in the garden area, the challenge required competitors to balance two water-filled bowls on a stick placed across their shoulders. The rule was straightforward — spill even a little water and you’re out.

Three Rounds, One Winner: How Gaurav Secured His Finale Spot

The task was divided into three rounds of 20 minutes each, with one contestant eliminated per round.

Round 1: Farrhana was the first to lose balance and exit.

Round 2: Pranit followed after losing control of his bowls.

Round 3: The final face-off between Gaurav and Ashnoor saw Ashnoor spill water in the last moments, making Gaurav the ultimate winner.

Reports from popular Bigg Boss portals like BBTak suggest that Gaurav not only won the task but has also become the acting captain, making him the last captain of the season. This victory gives him immunity, safety from nominations, and a direct ticket to the grand finale.
