Kiku Sharda and Aaditya Narayan Lock Horns Over Sarcasm, Respect, and Professional Boundaries
Kiku Sharda and Aaditya Narayan’s fiery exchange on Rise and Fall leaves the house divided as sarcasm, respect, and personal attacks take center stage.

Tensions reached a boiling point in the next episode of Rise and Fall when Kiku Sharda and Aaditya Narayan engaged in a heated verbal duel, leaving everyone in the house stunned. The drama unfolded after host Ashneer Grover casually asked Kiku about the vibe in the basement. What started as a light conversation quickly turned into one of the most intense confrontations of the season.
Kiku began by praising the basement’s overall atmosphere but wasted no time calling out what he saw as disruptors. “Mahaul wahan bahut accha hai… lekin ek trio hai jo mahaul kharab kar raha hai,” he said, pointing at Aaditya Narayan, Arbaz Patel, and Dhanashree Verma. Kiku also reminded everyone that the Penthouse isn’t just a luxury but a crucial mechanism to maintain power and order among the Rulers — a statement that seemed to ruffle feathers.
Things escalated when Kiku addressed Aaditya’s sarcastic tone. “Ye jo sarcasm me baat karte hai wo badtameezi hai yaar,” he said firmly, sparking instant friction. Aaditya, never one to hold back, shot back with a pointed retort: “Badtameezi hai? Aapke 1000 joke me se 500 sarcasm hote hai, to aap badtameezi karte hai TV par?” The room went silent as the argument shifted from playful banter to personal territory.
Kiku didn’t take the comment lightly, accusing Aaditya of disrespecting his career. “Ye to aap profession pe la rahe hai. Aap agar mere kaam ke upar aa rahe ho mere 25 saal ke kaam ke upar aa rahe ho,” he said, visibly upset. Aaditya countered with, “Main bhi 30 saal se kaam kar raha hoon,” making it clear he wouldn’t back down either.
The atmosphere grew heavier as Kiku drew a line in the sand. “Main aapke profession pe gaya nahi. Aap mere profession pe na jao,” he warned. The statement made the house realize this was no longer just a squabble about tone — this was a matter of dignity and professional pride for both men.
Ashneer, known for his blunt interventions, watched closely as the clash unfolded, letting both sides air their grievances. While some housemates sided with Kiku, saying sarcasm can cross the line into disrespect, others felt Aaditya was simply giving back what he was getting. The argument left viewers eager to see how this will affect alliances and power dynamics going forward.
Rise and Fall has thrived on these unscripted moments where emotions run high and reality blurs into drama, but this face-off between two seasoned entertainers may just be one of its defining moments.
