In this season, two boys, Varun Saini, a former participant of MTV Roadies 5 and Vishal Karwal, of MTV Roadies 4, find the ultimate girl of their dreams choosing from 20 girls after putting them through grueling tests. The girls battle stress, politics, exhaustion, fear, and other such emotional challenges to be the chosen one and avoid the humiliation of being dumped. The girl who is dumped leaves the show. In this manner, a winner is selected.
Of the final three, that is Shraddha, Heena and Prianca, Shraddha emerged as the winner and became the Queen of Splitsvilla. Shraddha then went on to choose Vishal. Vishal was challenged by Varun. They had to fight in three rounds; the winner of two out of the three was to be declared the ultimate winner. Vishal came out a clear winner by winning the first two rounds.
