MTV Roadies X Journey – Episode 10 (Tawang) : The Journey Ends


Finally the day has arrived. I figured it would be a short season this year but this short!? Kind of relieved to see a great, eventful journey coming to an end but also bitter to say goodbye to my most anticipated show of all times. I will miss you Roadies X. We’ll meet, until next year!



Tawang Bazaar Task
This is the only type of task Roadies was missing. Apart from some really good mind games that we haven’t seen this season, the shopping task is what I was waiting for. The whole thing was very simplistic but I have a few issues about the timings. I don’t think there’s a possible way to make this task fair. I also believe that Raghu’s team needed another elimination in order for the finale to be symmetrical.
There’s just no possible way to determine if the shops were equidistant from where the teams started and whether Raghu’s team had to walk more to reach them or Ranvijay’s. I don’t like saying this but I still believe it was biased towards Ranvijay’s team to keep 4 people in the team.
Similar situation occured when Ramandeep was forced to give up her bike and save her team which laid balanced grounds for the team swap. Team swap could never have occurred with disbalanced team memebers.



Ramandeep’s Immunity
This was also a very sensitive issue that I think was pre-delivered. They knew that Ramandeep was going to be discarded, they knew that if she was the only one left non-immune, she’d be directly voted out. How convenient to immune the person who was discarded.
I do not, in any way, think this is wrong by the way because the creators know where the show is headed with the consequent dynamics and they have to try their best in order to save it from going down the drain.
Palak’s Luck
Season 6 finale, Kiri cutting Palak’s rope to take Nauman one for the finale. A task in which no girl could have competed in against a guy. Kiri’s decision resulted in Palak not getting the chance to do the task but it also got her eliminated from the game. How convenient! The similar situation mimics here. Palak’s saved and not allowed to go on and perform the task BUT THIS TIME, SHE IS PERMITTED IN THE FINALE INSTEAD OF BEING ELIMINATED. Is this Raghu’s way of balancing things up for what he did back in season 6?
Surprisingly, Kiri and Harri, both the guys who prevented her from doing the pulley task, gave the same frikkin reason (achay competition say compete karna chahta hun) MY ARSE!
The Battle Task


They didnt mention the weights they used in both the pulleys and that is wrong. If they used the same weights, it’s unfair because mohit has a higher body weight than Harri and there’s no way he could have defeated him with the same amount of mass dangling from his chains.
Without a doubt, Mohit and Palak were allowed to continue.
Overall
Didn’t like the episode. Too predictable and too meddled with to set stage for a perfect finale. 6/10
What to expect in the finale
Lots of fight and people saying that “*insert name here* doesn’t deserve to be in the finale”
Possible wild card entries, possibly 2 contestants. (?)
Ramandeep teaming up with Anirudh (?)
Gaurav beating the hell out of Anirudh (since Gaurav has been given constant chances to prove himself by designing a task that lies in his comfort zone ; remember the first task)
Anirudh still winning because Sonal/Ramandeep will beat the other at chess (?)
