The task, which required diving into a pool of mud filled with balls to collect as many as possible, proved to be a trial of strength and strategy.

In addition to announcing that the winner would be the contestant with the most balls, Bigg Boss introduced a significant change in the rules. The traditional start and stop buzzers were replaced by green, yellow, and red lights similar to traffic signals. There was no longer a buzzer involved.

As per the new rules, competitors were required to enter the field when the light turned green and exit when it turned yellow. Furthermore, Bigg Boss declared that when the red light illuminated, any remaining contestants in the game would be eliminated.

Despite facing initial setbacks in the first round, where contestants struggled to adhere to the rules, the competition intensified as everyone strove to secure their leadership opportunity. However, amidst the competitive fervor, contestants Sijo and Rocky attracted criticism for their group play tactics.

In a strategic move that proved pivotal to his victory, contestant Sreerekha transferred her collected balls to Arjun in the final round, propelling him to the coveted captaincy position. Arjun's reaction of surprise and excitement upon being declared the winner resonated with both his fellow contestants and viewers alike.

Without delay, Arjun assumed his new role and promptly selected the inaugural power team of the house.
