Bala and Aajeedh are talking about the Court Case task in the house. Aajeedh says that he might be accused of being a confused person in the game. Bala tells him that he cannot let anyone give him labels.

 

Bala turns rapper in the house and raps a song about Bigg Boss. 

 

Aari tells Ramya how everyone in the house is biased. He also points out that Som was sleeping during the Dumb Charades task yet no one thought that was boring (because they called Aari boring in the previous week). Som also joins in the conversation and tries to justify but Aari keeps going on and on about the politics of the house and how Samyuktha is a biased captain. 

 

Half of the contestants are asked to be masters and the other half, slaves. Suresh, Ramya and Shivani are the slaves while Ramesh and Som are among the masters. The slaves are just having fun asking to offer their services. Shivani keeps asking Ramesh at the dining table if she should feed him the meal. Later, they try to give Som a shoulder massage.

Wild Warrior Race presents ‘Himalayan Adventure Challenge 2020’ - India’s Premier Adventure Race from 11th to 13th December

 Wild Warrior Himalayan Adventure Race is in its 7th edition and is one of the most gruelling and challenging races in India. The 2020 edition will be held between 11th and 13th December 2020 with race day on the 12th of December. The race involves mountain biking, hiking and rafting sections all performed back to back in a single day with race distances ranging from a 10km race for novices to a difficult 65km race for hardened adventurers.

The race is a team-based race with teams of 4-6 adventurers and has 3 categories as follows:

 

1.   65km Zealot – 30km mountain biking + 21km hiking + 14km rafting

2.   30km Open – 16km hiking + 14km rafting

3.   10km Intro – 5km rafting + 5km hiking

Keeping everybody’s safety in mind, the race will be capped at 200 participants and will be completely outdoors and spread over 65km of Himalayan Terrain. There will be staggered starts for teams to ensure no crowding at the start line and all the accommodation is in cottages and tents which are distant from each other. 

The race will be hosted at the Atali Ganga resort in Rishikesh on the banks of the Ganges in the state of Uttarakhand and will welcome participants from around the country. Aquaterra Adventures, a pioneer in the outdoor adventure space for the last 25 years is the primary event partner.

Actor and avid athlete Regina Cassandra will also be participating in the 30km Challenge along with professional surfers and stand-up paddlers Kutti Rajsekar, Sekar and Anand. She will aim to win the 30km challenge on the eve of her 30th birthday and raise funds to support at least 30 children. She has previously completed the Wild Warrior obstacle race in Bengaluru and was winner of the Wild Warrior Duathlon in 2018 with the fastest time for a female athlete in the 2.5km Run + 20km Bike + 5km Run event. 

Regina Cassandra will be racing in this event to raise awareness and funds for charities that she works closely with; particularly charities that help improve the lives of children from low socio-economic backgrounds. Her fundraising campaign will be launched on November 7, 2020. 

Adventure Races and Marathons have traditionally been a very effective way of raising money for important causes as they have the ability to spread a message consistently and in a sustained manner.

People who cannot attend the Himalayan Adventure Challenge can show solidarity with the “30 for 30” movement by participating remotely and logging 30km of distance in any form, either by cycling or running/walking. For eg. 25km cycle + 5km run.

Som’s Sleep Chronicles

A sleeping Som is entertaining. And Balaji has a funny story to share at the breakfast table about what Som actually murmured in his sleep. He tells everyone  how Som took his eye mask off and told people, "I'll join you guys tomorrow".   Som then explains that he was talking to Samyukhta about clubbing the other day before going to sleep. The housemates have a  hearty laugh.

Jail time for Aari Aajeedh

While Aajeedh and Aari are in jail, Anitha plays jester for them and entertains them by talking to a pillow like it's a child. The pillow is apparently mad at her for meeting it late so she says sorry and explains how her hairdo took time and that she will take the pillow out for popcorn, etc. 

It’s raining drama in the house

Amid ongoing drama in the house, it starts pouring and the contestants run outside with an umbrella. All of the are seen singing and dancing to Alaipayuthey songs (Tamil version of Saathiya).  Aajeedh, Aari and Anitha find their own sync and groove together.  Cat all the fun in this video.
