It came with the following options: A) Smuggling of salt, B) Fleeing plantation workers, C) Refugee influx, D) Political insurgents. The correct answer is A) Smuggling of salt.

During the episode, when Ashwani was asked a question related to Captain Vikram Batra, the contestant revealed that he had met him at a camp in Himachal Pradesh but never thought that his death would be reported a few days later. He also opened up about meeting Captain Batra's parents at an event and added, "I didn't know I was meeting such a big person, it was an informal 'hello hi'. I was posted in Himachal when he passed away. On the final day of the closing (of the unit), I invited his parents. I felt the bravery of Shershaah in his parents and all around us. "

On the other hand, Ashwini also said he is a huge fan of Amitabh Bachchan's 1977 movie Amar Akbar Anthony and requested the megastar to enact a scene from the movie. It must be noted that the show paid a tribute to healthcare workers throughout this week. Meanwhile, the upcoming Shandaar Shukravaar episode of the game show will be graced by actors Pankaj Tripathi and Pratik Gandhi.
