“Aap Log Samajhdaar Nahi, Bewkoof Hai!” Sehwag’s Patience Runs Thin as the Tower’s Feuds Escalate on Rise and Fall Season 2!

If the nominations stirred up a storm, the fallout brought a full-blown shake-up to the Tower! Sonam and Priyanka Chahar Choudhary were at loggerheads yet again, while Priyanka confronted Manish Kashyap over his silence. Sonam soon joined the face-off, and Manish found himself caught in the crossfire. But when the taunts turned into what he saw as disrespect, Manish snapped. Declaring that he was here to earn respect, not be insulted, he lost his cool, smashed a door and stormed off, leaving the house stunned! And with Sara, Kajal, Sonam and Gautam ganging up on Priyanka, the pressure kept mounting until she broke down. With the Basement seemingly united against her, has Priyanka become the Tower’s newest punching bag?

While some equations were falling apart, another old feud finally got a chance at closure. Rishabh and Aarush Bhola revisited their past differences, including the tensions involving Shreya, Rishabh’s girlfriend, and Laila. What could have sparked another showdown instead ended with the two agreeing to let bygones be bygones. But with the Tower running on rivalries and shifting loyalties, one truce hardly meant an end to the drama.

And just when the house seemed to be running out of patience, Virender Sehwag arrived for the Weekend Power Play, ready to give the contestants a reality check they weren’t going to forget anytime soon! From abusive language to personal attacks, the host had seen enough. Calling out the negativity, he questioned why every argument had to turn serious and why the contestants couldn’t simply laugh things off. His frustration came through as he said, “Mujhe laga aap sab samajhdaar hai padhe likhe hai samajh jaayenge par shayad mein bhul gaya, mujhe sochna chahiye tha aap log samajhdaar nahi bewkoof hai.. Uss hisaab se samjhata gaali deke mein samjhata toh shayad aapko samajh aata ya gusse mein samjhata toh samajh aata…” Sehwag also made his stand on personal attacks crystal clear, adding, “Mujhe toh aisa lagta tha ki jab mein balle baazi karta tha toh bowlers mujhe gaali dete the, mein unko jawaab gaali se nahi apne balle se run banakar deta tha”. With the host’s patience wearing thin, the contestants were finally being made to answer for their behaviour.

Aarush and Laila joined Sehwag for some banter, but the fun soon gave way to the Basement’s most persistent kalesh: Sara Gurpal versus Priyanka! Priyanka accused Sara of taking things below the belt, while Sara insisted that Priyanka’s provocations were what set her off. Swara Bhasker pointed out that even when arguments erupted in the Penthouse, the Rulers could still keep things civil. But when the conversation turned to mental health, Sehwag drew a firm line, reminding Sara that the same issue had once prompted the house to stand by Priyanka. Sara denied it, leaving Sehwag fuming as he questioned how she could say that when they had witnessed it themselves. She eventually apologised to Priyanka, but the truce didn’t last long, with Swara and Priyanka continuing to exchange sharp words. Sehwag also had some advice for Priyanka, urging her to rethink her strategy if she wanted to change the way the game was playing out for her.

And while Sehwag was busy taking the Basement to task, trouble was brewing upstairs too. Niharika Tiwari called out Shehzad Poonawalla over what she saw as his false promises, putting another Ruler equation under strain. With friendships being tested on both floors, the Tower was fast becoming a game of shifting sides and broken trust. With the Workers facing elimination, Manish’s outburst still fresh and rivalries showing no signs of cooling down, who will be the next to leave the Tower?
