In the last episode, we saw that depending on the scores obtained in the previous 3 weeks, 3 contestants were announced to be at the bottom with the lowest scores. After the end of Ek-aur-Ek 11 round, the show’s host and TV actor Jay Bhanushali announced that Ram Bisht, Apeksha Londhe and Sushmita Tamang were the contestants who had the lowest scores.
The Dance Battle
To make a decision on the elimination, as per the recommendations of Geeta Maa, a dance battle took place between the bottom three candidates:
- Ram Bisht
- Apeksha Londhe

In this battle, all three candidates needed to dance on different songs, followed by dancing together on one song.
