Arbaaz Patel’s Journey in Rise and Fall
Arbaaz Patel gained recognition for his performance in the reality show Rise and Fall. Initially part of the “Rise” group, he was praised for his leadership and ability to form alliances. However, mid-season conflicts and trust issues saw him transition into the “Fall” zone. Despite setbacks, Arbaaz earned admiration for his honesty and resilience.
