Reality TV star Akriti Negi, celebrated for her fearless personality and earlier stints on MTV Roadies 19 and Splitsvilla X5 (which she won), has once again found herself in the spotlight on Rise and Fall, but this time for all the wrong reasons.
In a recent episode, Akriti’s choice to play the game solo instead of joining alliances triggered friction inside the house, particularly with Dhanshree Verma. After a heated spat, Akriti sought comfort in solitude, missing her family. She quietly pulled out a pen and paper and began sketching their pictures, a deeply personal moment of reflection and love.
But what should have been a harmless activity soon snowballed into controversy. Arjun Bijlani, Arbaz Patel, Manisha Rani, and Dhanshree Verma seized on the moment, falsely accusing her of performing black magic. Even when Arbaz walked in and saw her simply drawing, he chose to fuel the allegations rather than defend her, intensifying the gossip within the group.
The baseless accusations quickly caught the audience’s attention, sparking an outpour of support for Akriti online. Fans have praised her composure and resilience in the face of unnecessary drama, applauding her for staying calm rather than lashing out. Many called the incident an unfair attempt to malign her character and derail her game.
Despite the smear campaign, Akriti continues to stand tall, focusing on her individual gameplay. As the competition heats up, her integrity, determination, and refusal to bow under pressure are winning her even more admirers. With every episode, she’s proving that strength in reality shows isn’t about alliances or accusations, it’s about staying true to yourself when the world turns against you.
