Mumbai, Sep 6 (NationPress) The anticipation has reached its peak. The inaugural episode of Amazon MX Player's reality series "Rise & Fall" has officially launched.

Among the participants, Dhanashree Verma captured attention right from the start with her daring remarks, sparking conversations.

She disclosed that while she has given up sugar, she certainly hasn't abandoned money.

In an honest revelation, Dhanashree shared, “I believe it’s time for people to understand that I have a distaste for sugar; I’ve eliminated it from my diet. Many have labeled me with various names, but they don’t truly know me.” Nevertheless, she readily acknowledged, “Money is extremely crucial, who doesn’t desire it?”

This statement may allude to her ex-husband, Yuzvendra Chahal, who garnered attention when he donned a T-shirt stating ‘Be Your Own Sugar Daddy’ on the day of their final divorce proceedings.

Prior to this, a behind-the-scenes clip showcasing a playful exchange between Dhanashree and Nayandeep Rakshit made waves on social media.

During their banter, when Dhanashree remarked that ‘working with her isn’t for everyone,’ Nayandeep retorted, “More than half of Bollywood has collaborated with me; you should too, and I’ll make you a star.”

In another bold statement, Dhanashree asserted, “The queen doesn’t need to become a star. Besides, there’s a line of interviewers waiting for me. I’ve turned off all the sports channels in the penthouse.”

"Rise & Fall", hosted by Ashneer Grover, gathers 15 celebrity contestants from various fields in a contest of power, privilege, and survival.

Ashneer remarked about the show, “Rise & Fall presents one of the most enthralling reality show formats globally. As a fan of reality shows, I believe the separation of contestants into the haves and have-nots introduces an unprecedented element to reality television in India.”
