Rise & Fall 2 episode update: Swara Bhasker breaks down as tensions explode over Priyanka Chahar Choudhary’s Rs 32 lakh loss

Rise & Fall 2 episode update: With the game inside the Tower becoming increasingly personal, the latest Powerplay Weekend on MX Original Rise and Fall Season 2 brings together a mix of fun, unexpected moments, and heated confrontations.

Host Virender Sehwag returned with a Bollywood-themed twist, giving the Workers their turn to step into the shoes of iconic film characters after the Rulers had their moment earlier. Manish Kashyap channelled Aamir Khan from Lagaan, Priyanka Chahar Choudhary stepped up as the ulti- mate "Desi Girl," Kaira Anu brought her inner Poo to life, and Sara Gurpal stepped into Geet’s shoes from Jab We Met. But beneath the filmi glamour, the rivalries were far from taking a break.

Sehwag set a series of challenges for the Workers, with tempting rewards up for grabs. Tej Pratap Yadav picked up his guitar to recreate a musical moment with Irina Rudakova, while Niharika Tiwari and Sara Gurpal were challenged to sing the Workers’ very own Basement anthem, taking cheeky digs at the Rulers along the way. Completing the challenges earned the Workers popcorn and a much-awaited pizza, while Manish was asked to report in his own entertaining style for a box of Thaggu Ke Laddoo.

However, the lighter mood did not last long as Sehwag brought the Rulers and Workers together to revisit the decisions that had shaken the Tower the previous week. Sparks Fly Over Prize Money Loss & "Tacky" Accusations After the light-hearted challenges, the Tower’s mood shifted as Priyanka Chahar Choudhary’s loss of ?32 lakh from the Fortune Pyramid and her subsequent move to the Basement became the focus of a heated discussion.

Swara Bhasker called out what she perceived as the misuse of an opportunity, clarifying that she had shared a bond with Priyanka and had never been against her, but felt that Priyanka’s actions had changed their equation. Describing her behaviour as “tacky,” Swara made her displeasure clear. Priyanka, however, maintained that she had been subjected to personal attacks, including being labelled a narcissist and a manipulator, while asserting that she had never asked anyone to vote for her.

The debate soon expanded beyond Priyanka’s decision, with Swara questioning the double standards in how the two sides viewed the game. Pointing out that the Workers had previously called Priyanka’s move smart but criticised the Rulers for exercising their own power, she remarked, “Bas hamara pinjara sone ka, aapka pinjara lohe ka… hum rules nahi banate.” Priyanka countered that the rules were made by the Rulers, while Sara called out Swara for making the discussion personal.
