The power play inside the Rise and Fall Season 2 house is heating up as the show hosted by Virender Sehwag delivers its first major twist. After a gruelling week of shifting dynamics, intense tasks, and the Rulers establishing their supremacy in the Penthouse, the reality show has officially kicked off its elimination process.
In Episode 7, which premiered on October 2, 2026, the first nominations of the season took place. The target was squarely on the Workers residing in the Basement. By the end of the tension-filled process, four contestants found themselves in the danger zone, facing the real threat of elimination based on audience votes.
Here is a complete written update of Rise and Fall 2 Episode 7, detailing the nomination process, the nominated contestants, and the aftermath of the first elimination scare!
Week 1 Nominations: The Danger Zone
Following the intense Prize Pot challenge in the previous episode—where the Rulers added Rs 10 lakh to their pot and the Workers failed to pull off a Takhta Palat—the atmosphere in the Basement was already severely strained. The frustration of losing valuable time, money, and power quickly spilled over into the nomination task.
In the October 2 episode, the makers announced the first official nomination process of the season. As per the show’s format, the contestants residing in the Basement (the Workers) were placed in the firing line. The internal bickering, lack of teamwork, and the failure during the fireworks task played a massive role in how the contestants targeted each other.
4 Contestants Nominated For Elimination
As the dust settled after the fiery nomination process, four prominent Workers were officially nominated for the first week’s elimination. The four contestants currently in the danger zone are:
- Manish Kashyap
- Kajal Raghwani
- Kaira Anu
- Anish Bhagat
All four contestants have had a turbulent first week in the Basement. Manish Kashyap has been heavily vocal, frequently locking horns with Ultimate Ruler Tej Pratap Yadav over political and regional remarks. Meanwhile, Kajal Raghwani and Anish Bhagat faced significant pressure and emotional breakdowns during the tasks, with Kajal’s performance in the fireworks challenge leading to sharp internal friction among the Workers. Kaira Anu also found herself in the crosshairs after stepping into escalating arguments throughout the week.
The Aftermath and Changing Dynamics
The announcement of the nominated contestants has sent shockwaves through both the Basement and the Penthouse. The Ultimate Ruler, Tej Pratap Yadav, continues to observe the chaos below, while tensions in the Penthouse between Priyanka Chahar Choudhary and Shehzad Poonawalla keep the Rulers sharply divided.
With the voting lines now open, the fate of Manish, Kajal, Kaira, and Anish rests entirely in the hands of the audience. Who will survive the first week, and who will be the very first contestant to exit Rise and Fall Season 2? Fans will have to wait for the weekend elimination results to find out!
