Aarush Bhola publicly questioned the impartiality of the reality series ‘Rise & Fall’ while taking a jab at Farah Khan’s upcoming show ‘Lock Upp 2’.
Aarush Bhola, a noted actor in the Indian entertainment circuit, recently made remarks that appeared to target Farah Khan’s forthcoming reality show ‘Lock Upp 2’. In the same breath, he described the competing series ‘Rise & Fall’ as biased, suggesting a lack of fairness in its format.
‘Lock Upp 2’, the sequel to the popular digital reality series, is expected to launch later this year, while ‘Rise & Fall’ has been on air for several weeks, drawing mixed reactions from viewers. Bhola’s comments have sparked discussion on social media platforms, with fans and industry observers debating the merits of both programmes.
The actor has not provided further details or evidence to substantiate his claim of bias, and neither Farah Khan nor the producers of ‘Rise & Fall’ have responded publicly as of now. The episode adds another layer to the ongoing rivalry among reality‑show creators in the Indian streaming space.
