The upcoming reality show Rise & Fall is set to begin streaming on Amazon MX Player from September 6, 2025, promising high-voltage drama, strategy, and competition.

The format

The show mirrors social divides by splitting participants into two groups — Rulers and Workers. While the Rulers live in luxury inside a lavish penthouse, the Workers face a starkly contrasting life in a bare-basics basement. The central theme focuses on how Workers battle against the odds to dethrone the Rulers and rise to power.

The host

Rise & Fall will be hosted by entrepreneur Ashneer Grover, who gained nationwide recognition through Shark Tank India. Known for his no-nonsense approach and sharp remarks, Grover’s presence is expected to bring intensity and spice to the show.
