After being a finalist on Bigg Boss, Priyanka Chahar Choudhary is now back as a contestant on another reality show, Rise & Fall season 2. She became one of the Rulers on the show. In the recent episode, she had a verbal argument with Shehzad Poonawalla that left her unable to sleep and reduced her to tears.
The latest episode of Rise & Fall season 2 saw Priyanka, Tej Pratap Yadav and Irina Rudakova compete for the crown of the Ultimate Ruler. When Priyanka was eliminated from the race and Gautam Gulati called her out for not being loyal to him, Shehzad also picked up on it and kept repeating Gautam's words. Priyanka, in turn, called him a "manchild". The remark did not sit well with Shehzad, who then called Priyanka a "gold digger".

Shehzad's remark affected Priyanka. While she laughed it off at the time, the next day, after waking up, she spoke to Swara Bhasker about it and said, "Now I know, Swara ji how this person must have disturbed your sleep and how miserable your eight years would have been. He will get beaten up here too. He called me a gold digger yesterday. Did I steal his gold and run away? This kept going around in my head all night because I am the one who supports my family, and he calls me a gold digger. Aisa Tamacha maarke jaaungi naa, tamacha yahan bajega taaliyan bahar bajengi (I will give him such a slap that while it lands here, the applause will be heard outside)."
She added that because of Shehzad, she could not sleep properly at night. "He ruined someone’s years, someone else’s nights. All it takes is one tag to defame a girl." In response, Shehzad accused Priyanka of playing the victim card and called her an "attention seeker".

He will get a slap from me too. When I was sleeping at night, I felt his negative energy surrounding me and I wanted to stop his energy. Staring is also an invisible touch."
Priyanka and Shehzad were allies in the first episode, but their equation changed after Priyanka called out Shehzad for making below-the-belt remarks about Siwet Tomar and provoking him. Shehzad was upset with her and accused her of backstabbing him. He was also seen expressing his desire to quit the show after his argument with Priyanka, saying that his reputation was at stake. He even called Priyanka an "unstable" person and said he was afraid that her remarks could ruin his reputation in the outside world.
