Years after his controversial exit from Shark Tank India, Ashneer Grover is gearing up for his grand return to television. This time, he steps into the role of a host for MX Player’s unscripted series, Rise and Fall, a show that promises high-stakes drama and intense competition.
The much-anticipated teaser, released on Thursday, gives a glimpse into what the show has in store. Ashneer breaks down the format, revealing that 16 well-known personalities will be locked in a house for 42 days. The house itself will be divided into two contrasting sections—one for the rich and powerful, the other for the less fortunate. Those at the top, described by Ashneer as people “who make the whole world dance,” will enjoy a life of luxury, while those at the bottom will struggle with harsh conditions.
With his signature wit, Ashneer adds a personal touch to the teaser, saying, “Lekin kismat ka doglapan mujhse behtar kaun jaanta hai?” (Who knows the duality of destiny better than me?)—a clear nod to his own highs and lows in the business world.
The teaser instantly sparked excitement among fans, many of whom flooded social media with reactions. “Looking crazy, sir! ” wrote one user, while another predicted, “Every episode of this show will be a blast!” Others declared it a “surefire superhit”, eagerly anticipating Ashneer’s return.
Here is the teaser:
Ashneer Grover first became a household name through Shark Tank India Season 1, where his blunt opinions and no-nonsense attitude made him one of the most talked-about investors. Whether it was his sharp business insights or his now-iconic one-liners, he left an unforgettable mark on viewers.
Now, with Rise and Fall, he’s all set to bring the same fearless energy to a brand-new arena.
