Rise and Fall Season 2 has seen its first major removal. Contestant Siwet Tomar was eliminated from the reality show after a fight with Shehzad Poonawalla turned physical inside the Tower. The incident took place in the third episode of the season.
The show does not allow physical violence inside the Tower. Siwet's actions broke that rule, and the makers removed him from the competition as a result.
How the Siwet Tomar and Shehzad Poonawalla Fight Started
The third episode began with the contestants split across the Tower. The contestants in the Basement were busy discussing their possible targets. At the same time, the Rulers in the Penthouse were working on their own strategies.
Things changed with the introduction of the Ultimate Ruler race. This race added a new layer of competition to the show. The winner of the race would gain decision-making powers in the Tower and immunity from the week's fall.
Before the race, the Rulers were asked to name the contestant they thought was the weakest decision-maker. The tension between Siwet Tomar and Shehzad Poonawalla escalated from there, and their argument soon turned into a physical fight.
Why Siwet Tomar Was Removed From Rise and Fall Season 2
The rule on the show is simple — no physical violence inside the Tower. Once the fight broke out, the production took action and removed Siwet from the show for violating this rule.
This makes Siwet the contestant eliminated from the season over a rule break rather than a regular fall. The Ultimate Ruler race, which was meant to be the big twist of the episode, was overshadowed by the fight between the two contestants.
Our Take: A Rule Break That Cost Siwet the Show
In our view, the removal of Siwet Tomar is the right call. Reality shows run on rules, and the no-violence rule inside the Tower is not a small one. If a fight is allowed to pass without action, the whole format loses its meaning.
To put it plainly, Siwet lost his place on the show because of one moment of anger. The argument with Shehzad Poonawalla may have started over the race and the weakest decision-maker question, but it ended with Siwet out of the competition. For viewers, this episode is a clear reminder that on Rise and Fall Season 2, crossing the line costs you your spot in the Tower.
What happens next in the Tower, and how the other contestants react to Siwet's exit, is something fans will now wait to see.
