That is the same as their 102 for Pardesiya (Yeh Sach Hai Piya) in Episode 2, and five below the 107 they got for Tujhe Laage Na Nazariya in Episode 3.

Swaroopp Khan, from Season 5, and Ritika Raj, from Season 15, sang Ghoomar, the Padmaavat song recorded by Shreya Ghoshal and Swaroop Khan. Since Swaroopp is the original singer of the song, Ritika had a tough time with it, and a few of the other duos gave the same feedback. Everybody danced to the performance. They got one 10, from Nihal and Senjuti, seven 9s, two 8s and a 7 from Manraj and Manasi, for 96, their lowest score so far after 110 in Episode 2 and 105 in Episode 4.

Manraj Veer Singh, a Season 16 runner-up, and Manasi Ghosh, the Season 15 winner, sang Oo Saki Saki Re. Swaroopp and Ritika gave them a 6 and said the song was not apt for them. HR asked what Ritika would have scored, and she said 9, so the 6 came from Swaroopp alone. Without it they would have had 107. Eight duos gave them a 10 and Ankush and Sireesha and Prajakta and Amit gave a 9, for 104, up a mark on the 103 they scored with Delhi Waali Girlfriend in Episode 3, and level with their 104 for Oo Balma in Episode 1.

Four duos gave them a 10, four gave a 9 and three gave an 8, for 100. It is a recovery from the 91 they scored for Tera Naam Rakh Diya in Episode 3, but still short of their 102 for Har Kisi Ko Nahin Milta in Episode 2.

Subhajit Chakraborty, the Season 15 first runner-up, and Bidipta Chakraborty, a Season 13 finalist, closed the night with Jaadu Hai Tera Hi Jaadu, the Ghulam song sung by Alka Yagnik and Kumar Sanu. Five duos gave them a 10, four gave a 9 and two gave an 8, for 102.
