The premiere episode of Rise & Fall, streaming on Amazon MX Player, wasted no time in setting up drama among contestants. In one of the first tasks, participants were asked to choose between a golden and a silver briefcase — though the exact consequences were not revealed immediately.
Arjun and Dhanashree’s choices
Actor Arjun Bijlani opted for the silver briefcase, allowing choreographer-influencer Dhanashree Verma to take the golden briefcase. While the show’s hosts did not disclose what these choices meant, reports suggest the briefcases will play a crucial role in determining living conditions for the contestants.
What the briefcases could mean
According to sources, contestants who selected the golden briefcase are likely to be placed in the luxury penthouse as Rulers, while those with the silver briefcase could end up in the bare-basics basement as Workers. This setup aligns with the format of Rise & Fall, where the divide between power and struggle forms the central theme of the competition.
Why it matters
The briefcase selection has already sparked curiosity among viewers, as the power balance between contestants is expected to shift episode by episode. With 16 celebrities including Anaya Bangar, Akriti Negi, Aarush Bhola, and Kubbra Sait in the mix, the choice between gold and silver could become one of the show’s defining twists.
