Roadies 5.0 – Journey 11
The time is really getting close now. An expected vote out turned out to be a game of gamble, never thought it could be twisted in that way.
Continuing with the episode…
This time roadies crossed the border and reached Malaysia (think no more roaming around after this). Everybody was so excited (although I am still wondering the why !! ) crossing the border on foot. Then they reached their hotel by floating on the see (obviously a boat was there as a source of transportation).
.
The next day they met Ranvijay near a sea shore, where lots of water sports were happening. So, it was pretty obvious that the money task would be somewhat related to that only. Ranvijay pointed their sight towards a professional doing a wave boarding, flipping.. Easier looking then actual implementation…everyone was given 4-5 chances to perform the task. The more time they would be able to board, the more money they would earn. Everyone tried their hands and feet on the sport but nobody was able to do it. 1 sec, 2 sec, 3 sec.. was the count…. except Prabhjot and Ankita who were able to balance themselves on the board for a longer time(somehow). One thing I did not understand, nobody was competent enough to do the task, but when it came to critiizing others, the big mouth opened to the fullest. 13 evens out of 25 tries… They managed to cross 2 lacs mark this time. (is it that the producers increased the stake ?
)
Second task (which was neither an immunity task nor an advantage task), was quite challenging and scary. The task was “win a Karizma” task. Only 1 Karizma this time, hmmn… Has the budget overshooted this time due to roadies going international, or is it due to the fact that, people left are not deserving enough to get 1 bike each… Whatever !!! the faces of roadie were to be seen at that time. On to the task. They were to lie down on a wooden plank and their hands would be tied with a rope, over the head so that they could not be seen. On the other side, a balde would be cutting the plank. So the roadies had to untie themselves before the axe reaches near their thighs. The quicker, the winner. Simple and in terms of Raghu “Fair enough”
. Nobody was able to do it, except Prabhjot and Ankita. The one who did it faster was Ankita (18 seconds). Well deserved !! Kudos…
No immunity task so no one was immune.
Then came the time of elimination. Ankita was given a chance to decide the roadie who could go home. She had to give her won bike to a roadie of her choice and that roadie would not drive ahead in the episode but would be driving back to India. Ankita played a big gamble here and did not agree to give her bike to anyone. Instead she opted for a normal vote out sequence.
One more twist, this time the voting happened for giving the power of elimination instead of elimination. The one with maximum number of votes would choose the one who would be going home. Vote outs started and Ashu won the power with total of 3 votes.
Finally, Ashu named Prabhjot as the eliminated. Sonel once again cried and hugged her….. (sobbbbbb)…

I am flattered

Prabhjot seemed to be a big mouth also. You should hear the way she criticize and boasts of herself.

I think it was quite an unfair vote out. Compared to last year’s roadies, this time the show has completely gone bonkers.. Prabhjyot was the only contender who deserved to win the show….it doesn’t matter if she boasts, she’s boasting what she’s done, not claiming or faking any thing… But yeah, she shud have persuaded Ashu a little, she didn’t do that… else maybe Ankita wud have been out….

Hi Marlen: Thank you for your comments.
In that way, I like Ankita. She is a good contender also and she does not boasts of herself.
Even if Prabhjot had persuaded Ashu, it would not have mattered, as he completely waanted her to be out of roadies.
@Priya: Kudos to your brother….. rightly said
