victorious for having seven members excluding the leader, however for the second part of the task, they had to protect

their flag in the garden area while Villains tried to destroy it and replace it with their flag. This led to violent behavior

amongst the housemates for which Bigg Boss nullified the task. Later, Bigg Boss announced that Heroes had won the

task for winning the first half of the task.
