Rise and Fall Season 2 witnessed a heated confrontation between Swara Bhaskar and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary after Priyanka refused to support Gautam Gulati during the Gautam City task. The disagreement escalated into a bitter exchange, with Swara accusing Priyanka of taking money from the prize pot and calling her a “chor”, or thief.
The argument added another dramatic moment to the reality show’s ongoing power struggles, as contestants continued to clash over decisions, alliances and the race for the Ultimate Ruler throne.
Why Swara Bhaskar and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary Argued
The dispute began during the Gautam City task, a crucial stage in the competition involving Gautam Gulati and Shehzad Poonawalla. Priyanka, who had previously shared a friendship with Gautam before their relationship turned adversarial, had an opportunity to support him but chose not to do so once the task began.
Explaining her position, Priyanka said, “Hurt ho raha hai mujhe Rise and Fall,” expressing that she was feeling hurt by the show and its circumstances. Kaira and Niharika also reportedly took actions that weakened Gautam’s position during the task.
Later, Karan Patel asked Priyanka to switch sides if she had the opportunity. She refused, arguing that she would not offer support after being accused of something she said was untrue.
“Kyu mere pe ilzaam lagaya, jhoot hai, main jhoot nahi bolti aur ilzaam lage toh nahi milega support,” Priyanka said, maintaining that she would not support someone who had levelled an accusation against her.
Swara Bhaskar Questions Priyanka Over the Prize Pot
Priyanka’s decision angered Swara, who challenged her over the money involved in the competition. Swara claimed that Priyanka’s actions had affected the prize pot and the other contestants’ financial stakes in the game.
“Humara 32 lakhs leke chali gayi, mere 7 lakh leke chali gayi ho tum,” Swara said, questioning Priyanka’s right to take the money while other contestants were also part of the competition.
Priyanka maintained that she had been entitled to make her own decision. However, Swara continued to criticise her, accusing her of behaving like the people she herself had condemned.
“Tum bhi wohi ho jo tum inn logon ko bolti ho, tum koi alag nahi ho toh yeh mask tum drop kar do,” Swara told Priyanka, suggesting that her actions contradicted the image she presented.
When Priyanka responded, “Main toh keh rahi hu main buri hu,” Swara replied that the accusation was therefore the truth rather than an allegation.
Priyanka Calls Swara a ‘Dictator’
The confrontation grew more intense as Priyanka continued to stand by her decision. Swara urged her to leave the game if she was unwilling to participate under the circumstances.
Swara also accused the contestants of disrespecting the show, the people involved in its production and those performing the work behind the scenes.
“Yaar tum log sab ka disrespect kar rahe ho, show ka disrespect kar rhe ho, tum yaha labour ka disrespect kar rahe ho, jo actual kaam karte hai na log unka disrespect kar rahe ho,” she said.
Priyanka then called Swara a “dictator”, escalating the verbal exchange. Swara responded by calling Priyanka a “chor”, making the confrontation one of the episode’s most contentious moments.
The clash highlighted the growing tensions between contestants as personal disagreements increasingly intersected with the strategic decisions required to progress in the competition.
Swara’s Remark About Priyanka’s Appearance
The disagreement continued as Swara prepared to leave the Penthouse. Referring to a note she had written for Priyanka, Swara made another pointed remark about her appearance and behaviour.
“Maine tere liye note likha tha, kitne bhi glamourous kapde aur imported makeup tere charitra ki batsurati nahi chupa sakta,” Swara said.
She later discussed the note with Niharika, reiterating her criticism of Priyanka’s behaviour. The exchange further intensified the personal nature of their disagreement, which had begun with a strategic decision during the Gautam City task.
What Happened on Rise and Fall Season 2?
Rise and Fall Season 2 centres on contestants navigating shifting alliances, competitive tasks and struggles for power. Decisions made during challenges can affect individual positions as well as relationships inside the house, creating opportunities for both strategic manoeuvres and confrontations.
The argument between Swara Bhaskar and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary illustrates how disagreements over money, loyalty and gameplay can quickly become personal. With contestants taking different positions on the Gautam City task, the fallout could influence their relationships in subsequent episodes.
The show’s format continues to place contestants under pressure to balance personal loyalties with the demands of the competition. Whether the latest clash leads to reconciliation or further divisions remains to be seen.
