Rise and Fall host Ashneer Grover recently got into a heated argument with a contestant on the show. It was a misunderstanding that developed into a heated argument between him and YouTuber Aarush Bhola. Things escalated so much that Ashneer asked the contestant to get out and walked off from the penthouse following the altercation. Ashneer Grover has been in the news since Friday after his invitation to join Bigg Boss 19 as a wild card contestant leaked online.
In the weekend episodes, Ashneer Grover was seen quite upset with the contestants not performing to their full potential. While he urged everyone to play their individual games, he pointed out to Aarush Bhola not to get carried away in his friendships on the show. Ashneer repeated a comment that Aarush made on the show last week, calling himself a ‘ch***** partner’ on the show. However, this feedback from the host triggered the 24-year-old YouTuber, who went on to slam the host.
During a segment, where Ashneer was reading an audience comment for Aarush, the contestant said, “Sir, I wanted to speak with you first, in the red room, you called me something. As a host, you can give me any criticism regarding the game, but don’t say such things next time. I am here because I have made a name for myself and not to hear all this.”
Responding to Aarush, Ashneer Grover said, “I just repeated a comment you made; you called yourself that, so why are you pouncing on me?” Aarush further added, “I can tell myself anything I like, but I cannot have a third person tell me these things. Next time, I will not take this from anyone, even you. I can tell the camera what I like; you cannot tell me those things.”
The argument only escalated when Ashneer hit back at Aarush and said, “What you get to hear depends on you. What are you here to play? Please get out. Do what you like, Aarush. I will not speak with you now.” After the contestant asked them to open the gates, an upset Ashneer walked out of the penthouse. Later, Aarush was seen telling other contestants, “They are trying to show something from the show, this doesn’t pay my bills, I have earned lots, so I am not going to hear all this.”
While Aditya Narayan, Dhanashree Verma, and Nayandeep Rakshit discussed how Aarush was at fault, Arjun Bijlani and others in the basement chose to stay silent. After the situation got tense, Ashneer returned to the show and announced the evictions for the week. Actress Aahana Kumra and cricketer Anaya Bangar exited the show soon after.
