Love or money? Romance or strategy? Loyalty or survival? Episode 10 of MTV Splitsvilla Season 16 (X6) turned these questions into pure chaos as emotions exploded, friendships cracked, and contestants were forced to reveal their true priorities. Titled “Khane Ka Kalesh Begins,” the episode served drama, strategy, and stomach-churning challenges in equal portions.

And fans? They got one of the most entertaining episodes of the season so far. Here’s a fun, drama-filled recap of everything that went down.

The episode kicked off with contestants from Pyaar Villa being called into the notorious Mischief Den, a place where relationships go to get tested. Hosts Uorfi Javed and Nia Sharma dropped a bombshell: every contestant had to choose between Pyaar (Love) and Paisa (Money).

As contestants began revealing their decisions, tension filled the room. Some chose loyalty, others chose strategy, and a few decisions were left undisclosed. The highlight was a fiery exchange between Himanshu and Uorfi, turning the moment into a heated confrontation.

From that point on, the atmosphere inside the villa felt different. Trust started looking fragile.

“Khane Ka Kalesh” Task

Host Sunny Leone then announced the episode’s main challenge, and it instantly sounded like trouble. The task? Prepare and serve sandwiches loaded with unpleasant ingredients, neem paste, chilli powder, garlic, lemon, and other shocking combinations.

But there was a twist. Each sandwich-making pair had one contestant blindfolded while the other guided them through the messy process. After preparation, teammates had to serve those sandwiches to rival couples, who then had to eat as many as possible to score points.

Yes, victory depended on how much torture the opposing team could swallow. The villa quickly turned into a battlefield of shouting, laughter, arguments, and pure chaos. Since Saurabh failed to build any connection in the villa, he was directly sent to the dumping zone, leaving teams to battle without him.

Two teams of six were formed:

Team 1: Yogesh, Akanksha, Himanshu, Anjali, Ayush, and Sujana

Team 2: Soundarya, Sadhav, Tane, Harshit, Jagdeep, and Anisha

From Team 1, Yogesh and Akanksha prepared sandwiches, while Ayush and Suz delivered them to Sadhav and Tane from Team 2. Meanwhile, Team 2’s Harshit and Soundarya prepared sandwiches, with Jagdeep and Anisha delivering them to Himanshu and Anjali.

The kitchen turned into a comedy show, ingredients flying, blindfolded confusion, teammates screaming instructions, and contestants questioning their life choices while eating those disastrous sandwiches.

In the end, Team 1 prepared more sandwiches, their opponents struggled to consume them, and Team 2 managed fewer deliveries with lower consumption scores, resulting in Team 1 walking away victorious, proving that coordination and endurance beat chaos.

Just when things seemed to settle, promotional clips teased even more fireworks.

A major confrontation between Himanshu Arora and Yogesh Rawat hinted that cracks are widening within alliances. The bigger shocker? Yogesh appeared to take a stand that might hurt his partner, Akanksha, leaving viewers wondering if betrayal is on the horizon.

In Splitsvilla, alliances change faster than emotions, and Episode 10 might just be the beginning of bigger shake-ups.

Fans have long awaited the merger of Paisa Villa and Pyaar Villa, and Episode 10 dropped subtle hints that the moment may finally be approaching.

If this merger happens, all 32 singles will come under one roof, bringing more competition, more love triangles, more betrayals, and double the drama, and if history tells us anything, mergers in Splitsvilla always bring explosive twists.

Why Episode 10 Stands Out

This episode perfectly blended humour, strategy, emotional conflict, and physical challenge. It wasn’t just about winning a task; it exposed contestant priorities, loyalty levels, and hidden agendas.

The food challenge added comic relief, while the Mischief Den decisions created emotional fractures that could impact future episodes. In short, Episode 10 reminded viewers why Splitsvilla continues to dominate youth reality TV.

Where to Watch Splitsvilla X6?

Missed the episode? You can stream the full episode on JioHotstar, with new episodes airing every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday at 7 PM. If Episode 10 proved anything, it’s this: the real game has only just begun.

Love is fragile. Money is tempting. Loyalty is rare. And inside Splitsvilla X6, every decision comes with consequences. With rivalries intensifying, friendships shaking, and alliances shifting, the upcoming episodes promise even bigger drama. One wrong move could send any contestant packing.

So, the real question remains, who will choose love, and who will play the game? And more importantly… who survives the chaos?
