Runner-Up Aarush Bhola Calls Rise And Fall Show 'Biased' After Losing
Aarush Bhola, runner-up of the reality show Rise And Fall hosted by Ashneer Grover, called the show "biased" months after losing to winner Arjun Bijlani. In a conversation with Farah Khan on her cooking vlog, Aarush criticized the internal voting system used to decide the winner. Farah disagreed, suggesting contestants often label shows biased when they don't win. Aarush also had notable clashes with host Ashneer during the show, particularly over the use of a slur he had used for himself.
