Sehwag walks off Rise and Fall 2 set during Gautam-Manish row
Host Virender Sehwag walked off the stage during a heated dispute on the reality show Rise and Fall Season 2.
The argument involved actor Gautam Gulati and contestant Manish Kashyap, who have been at odds for several days.
Gulati and Kashyap clashed during a power-play segment as they argued over their behaviour and the way they spoke to each other.
Sehwag returned and criticised both men for threatening language and disrespect toward the host.
He said the show should be won without insults or putting others down.
Gulati's decision sent Kashyap to the basement, while Sonam also chose herself to go there.
The clash matters because contestants' decisions affect their positions in the show's competition.
The programme's next episodes will show how the dispute affects their gameplay.

What people are saying
I am not used to hearing arguments like this. That is why I left here.
I thought this was a celebrity show. But this is a criminal show.
The worst day of my life would be when I sit in front of Gautam Gulati and beg him to save me.
Is “sala” an insult?
