Rise and Fall Finale Twist: Manisha Rani Betrays Aarush Bhola; Sends Akriti Negi to the Penthouse

Have you ever seen a reality show move so wild it made your jaw drop? Yeah, that just happened on Ashneer Grover’s “Rise and Fall,” and everyone is talking about Manisha Rani’s latest play.

Here’s the thing. The show is in its grand finale week, and the pressure is insane. The contestants are split into two groups: the “Rulers” living it up in a fancy Penthouse, and the “Workers” stuck down in the Basement. But the makers just dropped a bomb. They told the Workers their time in the Basement could end at any second.

Talk about chaos.

A Choice That Changed Everything

So, the Workers got a critical task on October 15, 2025. They had to give a pin to the one person they thought truly deserved to rise up to the Penthouse. It was a moment of truth. A real test of loyalty and strategy.

Aarush Bhola saw his chance. He stood up and gave a passionate speech, explaining how badly he wanted to become a Ruler. He put it all out there. You could feel he really wanted it. But then, Manisha Rani stepped up.

And in a move absolutely no one saw coming, she didn’t pick Aarush. Instead, she handed the pin to Akriti Negi. The room went silent. Everyone was completely shocked.

What’s Her Real Game?

Look, this wasn’t just a simple choice. What makes this so juicy is that Manisha herself had previously said that Akriti Negi did not deserve to rise. So what changed? Why the sudden 180-degree turn?

Her decision sent ripples all the way up to the Penthouse. The Rulers watching couldn’t believe what they saw. Well, most of them couldn’t. One Ruler, Nayandeep Rakshit, seemed unfazed. He actually claimed he knew Manisha was going to do it all along.

This single move has thrown the entire game into question. Was it a moment of weakness? Or was this a masterstroke from a brilliant player who sees the game differently than everyone else? One thing’s for sure, Manisha Rani just made the finale week of “Rise and Fall” a must-watch event.

So, what do you think? Was this the ultimate betrayal or the smartest play of the season? The Basement may be closing, but the real drama is just getting started.
