OTT reality show Rise and Fall, hosted by Ashneer Grover, has been delivering drama, fights, and emotional breakdowns in equal measure. Comedian Kiku Sharda left viewers teary-eyed as he opened up about the most heartbreaking chapter of his life: losing both his parents within just 45 days.
During an emotional moment, Kiku revealed that he was in the US when his mother passed away. He recalled how, as an actor at the airport, he was surrounded by fans asking for selfies even as he was struggling to process the loss. Breaking down, he admitted he didn’t answer his mother’s last phone call, assuming he could call her the next day—only to find she was gone. Just weeks later, his father too passed away, unable to cope with the grief. Urging others to cherish their families, Kiku reminded everyone to stay close to their loved ones and never delay that call.
The episode also saw Sangeeta Phogat’s sudden and emotional exit after her father-in-law’s passing, while social media influencer Noorin Sha was evicted by the Rulers. Sangeeta’s departure left the house shaken, with Kiku especially disturbed, as her situation brought back his own painful memories.

In one of the recent episodes, Sacred Games actress Kubbra Sait called Arbaz Patel the “villain” of the game, a tag he fiercely rejected. Arbaz shot back, saying villains manipulate while leaders lead, making it clear he saw himself as the latter. Tensions escalated further when Arbaz clashed with Aarush Bhola, sparking a heated exchange of insults. What began as verbal shots quickly spiralled into pushing and shoving, with the two nearly coming to blows before other contestants intervened.
The house is currently split into Workers—Arjun Bijlani, Kubbra Sait, Sangeeta Phogat, Anaya Bangar, Aarush Bhola, Akriti Negi, and Noorin Sha—and Rulers, which include Kiku Sharda, Dhanashree Verma, Aditya Narayan, Aahana Kumra, Bali, Nayandeep Rakshit, Arbaz Patel, and Pawan Singh. With such a volatile mix, Rise and Fall continues to live up to its name, serving both raw emotions and explosive confrontations.
