EPR And MC Square Open Collab Week With Hunkkaar
Before the Hustlers begin their collaboration battles, EPR and MC Square take the stage together with “Hunkkaar - The Roar Anthem.” The Squad Bosses bring a powerful combination of their styles to the title track created for Fatima Sana Shaikh’s upcoming web series Hunkkar.
Their performance sets an energetic tone for the episode and gives the audience a glimpse of what Collab Week is all about, different artists coming together to create something bigger.

Parv And whysoKai’s “Carnivorous” Becomes The Showstopper
The biggest performance moment comes from Parv and whysoKai, who join forces for “Carnivorous.” The duo goes all-out with an aggressive performance packed with intense bars, forceful delivery and high-energy stage presence. Their chemistry becomes one of the defining elements of the track, with both rappers matching each other's energy throughout the performance.
The reaction inside the room is equally wild. The performance sparks such an intense response from the judges and mentors that chairs, mugs and bottles go flying, turning “Carnivorous” into one of the most memorable performances of the episode.

Ansh4sure And SICKLOT Set The Bar With A High-Energy Collab
Ansh4sure and SICKLOT get the responsibility of opening the competitive collaboration segment, and the duo wastes no time raising the energy. Their performance combines their different styles while keeping the focus firmly on momentum and stage presence. As the first competitive collaboration of the night, the performance sets an early benchmark for the artists who follow.
Meanwhile, Akshat Jakhar and Harmeet take a more melodic and cultural route. Their collaboration brings together the distinct flavours of Rajasthan and Bhopal, creating a performance built around their contrasting backgrounds and musical identities. The pairing shows another side of Collab Week, where the challenge is not simply about matching flows but finding a way for different artistic personalities to work together.
Brand Anthems Add More Energy To Collab Week
The episode also features special performances built around brand anthems. Raaj Babu, Parv and SICKLOT come together for the Gulf Pride Anthem, delivering a motivational track centred on hard work, stamina and pushing beyond limitations.
The Tic Tac Anthem brings together Sirohyi, D Flacko and Dhadkan from the Para Troopers. Their vibrant and rhythmic performance gives the episode another burst of energy and adds variety to the collaboration-heavy format. With Collab Week now underway, the Hustlers have another major challenge ahead as the Ticket to Finale becomes part of the race to the grand finale.
