"Rise And Fall" Season 2 is headed towards its finale on November 6. This season was hosted by Virrender Sehwag, who made his debut as a host on a streaming platform with this show. The finale will be filmed over the next two days in Mumbai. Swara Bhasker, Shehzad Poonawalla, Gautam Gulati, Karan Patel have qualified for the finals. The first two contestants have grabbed maximum eyeballs with their verbal wars right from day one. From the players in the basement, Priyanka Chahar Choudhary and Niharika Tiwari are chosen to go into the finale. TV star Arjun Bijlani won the first season and all eyes are on who will take home the trophy this year. 

The contestants who were eliminated before the finale are YouTuber and political commentator Manish Kashyap, actor Rishabh Jaiswal, Jashwanth Bopanna and model-actor Sonam Malik. In the past few weeks, these finalists have dished out a lot of drama. Karan Patel had left the show in October due to medical reasons. He made a comeback to the Penthouse and was stiff rivals with Poonawalla.  

Poonawalla, the first finalist, has been a key player in every episode. Ahead of the finale, Bhasker lashed out at Poonawalla saying that he had been trolling her on social media for eight years. He apologized but she was in no mood to respond positively to the same. Poonawalla used his power to ensure that Gautam Gulati gets a berth in the final. Host Sehwag questioned Poonawalla using the term ‘vamp’ for Choudhary. 

“Rise And Fall” Season 2 had 16 players who were split in groups of two. The British show is developed by Studio Lambert and hosted by Greg James.
