. Bad Man Gulshan Grover insited on eliminating a Roadie from the start itself, and as a result the Roadie who was voted out was Oorja.

Roadie "Voted Out": Oorja

Episode 2

After Oorja's Voteout the Roadies Camp was divided into two Camps. Chandigarh and Delhi, and there was a real big fight between Shaleen and Bani and after that Bani became a target in everybody's eyes especially the gals.
After that fight, the next day Roadies 3 Winner Parul flagged off the Journey for the Roadies 4 and they were headed to Cochin. Then the next task for them was a Snake Boat race which was an immunity one and the Team consisting of Ankit, Bani, Swati, Roopali and Rishabh lost it. Then in the Vote Out Bani had a clear chance of going out but Ankit was ditched by others and hence Ankit was voted out in this episode.
Chandigarh – Delhi war became more intense, with Delhi having the upper hand.

Roadie "Voted Out":Ankit Mohan

Episode 3

In 3rd Episode, Delhi group lost another member Shaleen Malhotra after he along with other Delhi group members failed to win immunity task which was based on Bull Run race.. In this also Bani was one of the Contender, but Shaleen lost it and hence was voted out and thus Delhi Group was dealt another heavy blow & with both the guys out it was now up to the gals.
This Episode saw "Bad Man" Gulsan Grover making an entry and telling the Roadie that there was a "SPY" between them and the person could be harmful... thus leaving all the Roadies puzzled.

Roadie"Voted Out": Shaleen Malhotra

Episode 4

The 4th Episode saw the Action being shifted from South to North as Roadies were sent to Jodhpur. Also in between there was a sawal -Jawab round which was really spicy and hot tempered and Roadie had got a hint who was who. After that they had a money task in Mewar after which the all important immunity task was assigned to them only difference being this time the two teams were divided as BOYS and GALS. And it was a relatively easy task for the gals which they won easily and thus leaving the guys in a crunch situation. Vishal knew that he was always on the danger side as he had made his intentions clear that he wanted the gals out and as a result Vishal Karwal was voted and thus Delhi got one back against Chandigarh, thus making it even more interesting and the SPY quotient was still in with Rishabh being the main suspect.

Roadie "Voted Out": Vishal Karwal

Episode 5

Part 1
Today the Roadies had a long journey all the way from Jodhpur to Pushkar. It was a really long journey and Roadies reached a royal palace where they were supposed to stay. After that long journey, they sat down to have their dinner and entered Ranvijay. He told the Bad Man that Gulshan Grover had a really important message to sent to them. Bad Man said that today the roadies had to vote out the "Spy" or else he will reveal the "Spy" and the "Spy" would get all the hard earned money. After that Ranvijay told them that they had to do the "Voteout" right away. It was a surprise "Voteout". Also it was unanimous. So all the Roadies were caught and stunned, but after some more time terrifying them Ranvijay broke the suspense that he was joking. During the night Roopali and Bani had a small fight over a bed sharing issue, which got ugly and converted into a four-letter vocal battle.

Part 2
The next day the Roadies had their Money Task in which they had to do a relay race. They were given a cart in which they had to carry people from one place to another where the other team would be waiting. Every person sitting on the Cart would give them Rs.3,000 and the catch in this is that "They could only carry a person who had age which was equal to more than the age of the team members combined". They were divided into three teams and total time allotted was 45 minutes.

Team 1
Raj, Poonam, Swati
Team 2
Rishabh, Roopali, Bani (Really interesting team knowing that Roopali and Bani were at loggerheads)
Team 3
Sahil, Anthony, Sonam

The Roadies completed the task in 42 minutes and had carried a total of 14 persons (7,3,4 respectively), so they won a total of Rs 42,000 and the grand total in the Roadies' account became Rs.1,610,000. After all that fun they had it was time for some seriousness because it was "Voteout" time.
They were all divided whom to vote with all eyes on Bani, who had come in her lucky black top.

"Voteout" Time

The Voteout was a high voltage drama as the "Spy" was going to be revealed and Roadies were all tensed up as their grand total was also in threat.
As expected Bani was Voted out.

Now in Came Bad Man aka Gulshan Grover to reveal if Bani was the "SPY"
And he delivered an absolute full on Jhatka: "There was No "Spy" in the Roadies."

He told them that they believed him so much that they did not trust anyone among themselves and he said that he can "Now play with them as he wants."
He said that Bani was innocent she will not be going out, but instead the person whom she voted out would go. Although everybody thought it would be Roopali but it turned out to be Rishabh.
So after this episode the Roadies were all stunned and were in awe of the Bad Man.

Roadie "Voted Out": Rishabh

Roadies this season has been full of twists and turns and the next episodes promise no less as in promos it was shown: "For the first time in history of Roadies, two persons are going in one 'Voteout'".

Episode 6

Today's Episode started from last times shock voteout... after that voteout Bani and Sonam had sum little friction between them a war of words.... Bani was trying to figure out who betrayed her. Raj was one oF them and he got mouthfull. But later on Bani came up to the girls and tried to Jel with them as she knew tat this time she was really in a caught situation and had to do anything to save herself. so she tried to befriend them.

Next Day Roadies were off to another Journey with their Captain Anthony. From Puskar they travelled to Jaipur were they stayed in a resort. After taking sum rest after tat long and hot Journey, they got another chance to add to their Grand Total of Rs.1,61,000 as they were called out for a Money Task. But all the Roadies were called out in their swimming costumes and sum were little apprehensive about it especially Poonam who said she didn't like exposing herself. The Roadies were called on to the terrace were they saw Ranvijay standing with a Big Long Box covered with White cloth right next to him. He told Anthony to choose a "Helper" for a Boys Team and a Girls Team as he was the Captain so he choose Raj for Boys Team and Roopali for Girls Team.

Now from the minute the Roadies saw the box covered with white cloth they knew it was bad. They were guessing would it be worms snakes or spider..."FEAR FACTOR" Style..... But when Ranvijay removed the cloth they were surprised, coz they didn't see any snakes or any other creep creatures instead it was full of Currency Notes.

MONEY Task
Ranvijay explained them their task...

In this task they would be forming a team of two and they would have to cover their bodies with honey (for which the helper was appointed)... then both of them had to get down into the box, roll in it and stick as many notes as possible to their bodies (should not use hands) and then come out after that the helper would collect as many notes stuck to their bodies and drop in the box.
Total time allotted per team: 2 minutes.

1st Team:Bani and Sonam

2nd Team:Sahil and Anthony

3rd Team:Swati and Poonam

It was real fun to see them rolling in the box and trying to get notes stuck on their body. Anthony even tried to cheat by catching notes in between his armpits but Ranvijay caught him and told him to spread his hand..

The Roadies completed the task and won a total of Rs 32,500.... and the Grand Total in Roadies account became Rs.1,93,500...
After that Money Task all the Roadies had some fun.... as Raj was talking to the camera, Sahil came from behind and dumped the whole bucket of honey which was left on his head....... It was hilarious to see honey dripping all over him...
Then after clearing up all the mess they were called up for their immunity task....
Immunity task
In this they had to again form a team of two "A Couple"... that means only two would be getting the immunity. The boys were asked to choose a partner for themselves, and the following teams were formed:

1st Team:Raj and Poonam

2nd Team:Sahil and Bani

3rd Team:Anthony and Roopali

4th Team:Swatin and Sonam (since no guys were left, they were to form a group)

Now in the task they had to perform an "ITEM" number in front of a big crowd and one of the teams will be adjudged the winner. From judging them "ITEM" GIRL Rakhi Sawant was roped in.... after that Roadies were sent to their respective training rooms and Rakhi would be coming in between to advise them about latkas and Jhatkas...

"ITEM" Number for Respective Teams:

1st Team:Raj and Poonam...... Song:Bardash Nahin Kar Sakta(Humraaz)

2nd Team:Sahil and Bani...... Song:Chamma Chamma(China Gate)

3rd Team:Anthony and Roopali...... Song:Kiss Me Baby(Garam Masala)

4th Team:Swati and Sonam...... Song:Ishq de Gaaliwich(No Entry)

To see Roadies dance was absolutely hilarious....:lamo::lamo:
1st Team:Raj and Poonam
Raj was as stiff as one can get and was as if he is out to kill someone while Poonam was full off energy.
2nd Team:Sahil and Bani
Bani was rocking in the start, her latkas and jhatkas it was fabulous while Sahil wa trying to do hiphop...
Rakhi remarked that it was as if "Micheal Jackson and Janet Jackson were dancing in Indian Clothes"
4th Team:Swatin and Sonam
Team 4 was ok... with Swati being core of the team while Sonam was on the slower side and tryin to match Swati
Winners
3rd Team:Anthony and Roopali
They were awesome Roopali looking hot and Anthony matching his moves with her. They were so rockin that the crowds were shouting "Once More, Once More"
After the immunity task now was the time for voteout and many options were being discussed and moreover nobody trusted anyone... learning from past experiences.
"Voteout" Time
After discussing all the options, the Roadies lined up for Voteouts.... But RanVijay had some Bad News for them as the Bad Man had just called him up to tell about a change in plan.

He told that in the History of Roadies, In one Voteout two Roadies will be going back Home.... and all of them were stunned again.. All what they had discussed just became all different.

Ranvijay told tat each Roadie gets to Voteout 2 Persons. After the Votes were put in they fared like this
Raj & Sahil- 2 Votes Each
Bani, Sonam & Swati-4 Votes Each.

So Ranvijay told tat two of them Three(Bani, Sonam & Swati) will be going home today and dis will be decided by the other Roadies and in this Voteout again, Bani got Lucky..
Swati and Sonam were Voted Out. Bad Man is really Bad.

Roadies "Voted Out": Sonam and Swati

Episode 8

In Next Episode there are going to be again two VoteOuts.

VOTE OUT TASK

Bani and Roopali had to face vote out task in this task both had to climb mountain to go up and collect the keys and again comeback back down to open a box and get chit from that box initially roopali was faster than bani while climbing and getting down and all the roadies thought that roopali will win but while coming down roopali lost the key when she notice at the time of opening the box and again she went back to search the key, by the time she come to open the box bani had opened the box and roopali got voted out indirectly. and there was a vote to voted out 2 roadies in this episode. raj and poonam don't seem like voting against each other (yet), Anthony seems to be the outsider between them. Poonam doesn't like bani and vice versa. Anthony likes bani, raj is neutral. noone has a grudge against Anthony, so poonam will probably take raj into confidence and vote out my bani the possibility is that bani and Anthony (Anthony won't vote against raj for sure) will vote against Poonam, Bani got Voted out.

Roadie "Voted Out": Roopali

Episode 9

They reached Guwahati from Delhi. From the airport, they had to go to Nehru stadium, an international cricket stadium, for the next money task. They had to play a sport which is basically volleyball but no usage of hand, only foot, against an Assamese team. But the roadies were given special provisions to use hand as they were beginners. Ultimately, Roadies won 17 points out of 21.
Poonam won the immunity task.

At the vote out, Raj, Poonam and Anthony vote Bani out. After Bani is done saying goodbye, in comes Rishab.

Rishabh's WildCard Re-Entry

And Roadie who was back is Rishab. But then after Rishab's Return, Rannvijay said that Bani is not going. So Basically it was just addition of another Roadie. and no Roadie was Out.

Episode 10

MONEY TASK

Roadies had a camp at goalpara.... where they had come a night before and were camped near a lake.... The next morning they had the Money Task in front of them.

In this Money Task, RanVijay had planned their lunch.

Ya Lunch. There were five packets, one for each Roadie, among those 5 packets 3 contained fried silkworms.... and the other two contained a Single Chilly....

Roadies had to choose between them.... and they chose as follows:

Fried SilkWorms:

Raj

Bani

Anthony

Chillies:

Rishabh

Poonam

Then RanVijay broke the truth that the Chillies were not your regular chillies but Guinness Book Listed World's Hottest Chilly.. and So Poonam and Rishabh were naturally shocked.

Each Packet completed would give them Rs.10,000... that means a total of Rs.50,000 could be won.

The Task Begun with Raj, Bani and Anthony going for Fried Silkworms.
And they all completed it quite easily.

Then came the Chillies. Rishabh and Poonam all scared...

And the Chilly proved just tooooooo HOT..!!!!!

They couldn't control their tears, mouth was burning, ears were paining and face was all red... it was all hell broken loose on them....

After bottles and bottles of water they finally completed that HOT task.

And all Rs.50,000 were in Roadies account.

Now the Roadies Grand Total stands at Rs 3,80,500.

Roadie "Voted Out":Rishabh

Rishabh's Final Words:
Please Don't Trust RAJ...!!!!!

Quite the surprise, kolkatta stays together & rishabh gets the boot. Next episode seems even more exciting as the vote is a tie, best part of episode 10 - bani stays

Episode 11

They had a money task in which they had to score goals against an opposite team (Penalty Kicks)

and in the Immunity task they had to stand on top of two trees stumps and balance bowls filled with water over their body. Bowls were placed as follows: also known as shaolin
Shaolin kung fu
Shaolin Kung Fu refers to a collection of Chinese martial arts that claim affiliation with the Shaolin Monastery.Of the multitude styles of kung fu and wushu, only some are actually related to Shaolin...

.

1 on Head,

2 on Hands strecthed and

2 on knees when they were in crouching position

Raj won the immunity.

In the voteout there was a tie...... between Poonam and Anthony and it was left upon Roadies to discuss and decide who will be out initially it was decided that Anthony will be getting voteout.. but later on Raj changed his decision and after much argument it was decided that poonam will be voted out...

immunity task was shaolin thing,... had to stand on wooden poles with bowls of water on the head, palms and knees, the one who stood longest without the bowls falling won, raj won and poonam was ecstatic.. like as if bani goes out.. boy was she in a surprise or what

voteout -this was fun indeed, politics all around, poonam was upset with Anthony since a few weeks since he is fond of bani, so she (and raj) plotted to get him out by taking bani into confidence which was a very wrong move, however nothing culminated because of that, raj wanted Anthony out only because he was his toughest competitor, even though raj and Anthony were like real close buddies. Bani voted against poonam, raj against Anthony, poonam against bani, Anthony against poonam, tied, there was no task for the result, they had a choice of discussing between each other and letting one fella go or have a chit thing via which anyone could go out, even raj who had won immunity, so he naturally didn't want that, Anthony was very sad at raj voting him out, he spoke like peeth mein choora daal diya, and almost himself decided on going out when raj, but quickly gathered himself to inquire whether it was just raj's vote which can take him out (like bani - rishab vote thing), but it was not, bani was ready for the chit thing and so was Anthony naturally, poonam pleaded with her that she(bani) might get out, but bani was like doesn't matter I want Anthony in and she stuck with friendship (and probably knew too that in case the next voteout happens, raj poonam will stick together and shed get the boot), poonam also began asking for the chit thing but naturally raj was upset as this would mean he will lose immunity and risked being voted out too by random draw, there was a minor altercation between him and poonam.. and poonam was heartbroken seeing raj's stand.
Finally she had to go.....

Roadie"Voted Out": Poonam

Total Money in Roadie's Account:Rs.3,75,500

Next Episode I guess features old and unseen clips of Roadies coz the Fight between Ankit and Raj was shown in the promos and there was also Rishabh on the side..

Episode 12

After about 8400 km roughly, 8 States and 40 Dayz, the final 3 Roadies(RAJ, BANI & ANTHONY) will ride into Gangtok for the last 100 km of this gruelling journey and for the Grand Finale of MTV Hero Honda Roadies 4. After reaching Hanuman Tok, they are introduced to their Last and Final Chance to get IMMUNITY. This Immunity Task is called the Deadly Hangman Task. In this task the roadies will have their hands tied behind and they will be on a see-saw, with the death rope around their neck. To survive, the Roadies must untie their hands, their noose and jump off before the balance tips. The Roadie who does this in the Fastest Time will win the Most Coveted Immunity of this season.

But this doesnot guarntee a win, coz there is only one Roadie and there is one Final TWIST, that the Roadies have in store for them...

IMMUNITY TASK:"Hangman" Task

WINNER of IMMUNITY:ANTHONY

Episode 13

Anthony and Bani :The Finalist Couple
