Intense drama unfolds: Wildcards, Acro yoga, and a surprise visit dramatize the competition in a power-packed week of Battleground on Amazon MX Player.
MUMBAI, India–April 21, 2025: The Battleground House witnessed another week of intense drama and fierce competition, streaming exclusively on Amazon MX Player, Amazon’s free video streaming service. With Shikhar Dhawan as the Supermentor and team leaders Asim Riaz, Rajat Dalal, Rubina Dilaik, and Abhishek Malhan in charge, the heat inside the Battleground House has reached an all-time high! Over the past week, the competition intensified like never before, and fans were served a potent mix of drama, determination, and the unexpected.
The week kicked off with the introduction of masked wildcards, handpicked by Supermentor Shikhar Dhawan. These newcomers engaged in one-on-one battles to steal credits and secure their spots, notably shaking up the trio of Mehak, Dev, and Shiva. The captaincy playoffs saw Haryana Bulls clinch victory, earning the right to steal credits, while Mumbai Strikers also gained an advantage. Tensions flared with confrontations between Rathi and Shiva, and Rounak and Nisha over stolen credits. A brutal team powerplay led to injuries for Namrata and Rekha, Raja’s disqualification after a clash with Parth, and Rounak’s redemption with a win over Aashika, propelling Delhi Dominators over Haryana Bulls. Shiva’s triumph against Adnan secured UP Dabang’s win over Mumbai Strikers.
The drama intensified with an Acro yoga powerplay, where contestants paired up, leaving Mehak unchosen by both Shiva and Parth, leading her to team with Rathi. The Campus Beats cast: Shantanu Maheshwari, Shruti Sinha and Tanvi Gadkari, paid a surprise visit and added flair with a flirty game of Knife, Kiss, and Dil. Mehak offered her ‘dil’ to Shiva, but he chose Rounak, deepening Mehak’s disappointment. Acro yoga performances highlighted the episode, with Bhawish and Nisha impressing both judges and the Campus Beats cast. Ishaan and Rihanna’s display of chemistry during their routine stood out. In another explosive Fight Club episode, Mehak faced off against Dev and Rounak in high-stakes jackpot fights. A trio match among Adnan, Dev, and Parth ended with Parth injured. Among the girls, Anjali felt sidelined as Asim Riaz supported Chandni, leading to a verbal duel with Abhishek Malhan, aka Fukra Insaan. The week concluded emotionally as injuries forced Namrata and Rekha to exit the show.
As rivalries escalate, alliances shift, and mentors clash, one thing is certain, the storm has only just begun. Battleground is now streaming exclusively on Amazon MX Player, available on Amazon’s shopping app, Prime Video, Fire TV, and Connected TVs.
