As eliminations progressed, alliances, challenges, and power shifts determined which contestants made it forward. In the final round, the power to decide rested not only on performance but also on peer selection — those who survived had a voice in selecting the winner.
In the culmination, Arjun Bijlani’s gameplay, reputation among co-contestants, and consistency earned him the final nod. In a touching moment, he reunited with his wife Neha Swami on stage, visibly moved by the victory announcement.
