The highly anticipated grand finale of OTT reality series Rise and Fall finally ended today, bringing to an end a season full of drama, strategic moves, and power struggles. The trophy was finally won by Arjun Bijlani, as reported by several media outlets.
Finalists & Build-up to the Finale
Out of the initial 15 contestants, the show’s cut-throat format reduced contestants to only three in its last phase: Arjun Bijlani, Aarush Bhola, and Arbaaz Patel.
During the last week of the finale, the rumors were rife: some cited Aarush Bhola as having won the top position, while others favorited Arjun.
Arbaz Patel had previously won a “ticket to finale” position, adding more heat to the competition.
The Winner & Prize
There are reports that Arjun Bijlani emerged victorious with the title of winner after a successful performance in the final tests and stable gameplay throughout the season.
The winner is supposed to win a cash prize of approximately ₹30 lakh, although there is no official announcement of the exact amount.
What Made “Rise and Fall” Stand Out
The program’s structure — separating contestants into “Rulers” (lifestyle penthouse) and “Workers” (basement) — permitted ongoing power changes, producing an unstable and high-pressure atmosphere.
Players needed to adapt, strategize, and find their way through groupings, backstabbing, and challenging physical and mental challenges. Players could be sent to the basement or rise to the penthouse depending on weekly performance and voting.
The program also had dominant personalities and regular clashes, creating high drama and audience engagement.
Aftermath & Reaction
Aur Jain fans and industry people have congratulated Arjun on his victory, praising the way he balanced strategy, consistency, and staying power.
Meanwhile, fellow contestants — Aarush and Arbaaz — were also appreciated for reaching the final stage and giving tough competition.
So far, producers of Rise and Fall have not made an official announcement announcing the winner or the prize amount, but online rumors and media outlets overwhelmingly support Arjun’s victory.
