Arjun Bijlani Reflects on His Journey and Conflict with Akriti Negi

In reflecting on his strategy, Arjun highlighted the necessity of adaptability. “Survival is key in a game that gauges patience and skill. I always keep a close eye on my competition,” he stated. With 15 participants in the mix, being observant is essential. He stressed that understanding the dynamics of the game is pivotal for progress.

Though winning was gratifying, Arjun admitted that the emotional strain of the contest, including being away from his family, was challenging. “I lost my temper a few times; that’s typical in a competitive environment,” he shared. Despite aiming to play with integrity, heated discussions did occur.

A notable event during the show was his altercation with Akriti Negi, who faced considerable backlash for her behavior. Addressing this moment, Arjun stated, “Forgiveness is crucial. Akriti is talented, and after she apologized publicly, I respected that. We have moved past this, and I hope she avoids repeating previous mistakes in future shows.” He made it clear he chooses to focus on the future rather than hold grudges.

Additionally, Arjun’s son Ayaan made a surprise entrance, revealing that Aditya Narayan wasn’t being truthful with him. Initially, Arjun doubted the claim, believing a misunderstanding might have occurred. “He swore on his mother, and I thought that was a strong oath. But after confirming, it’s clear Aditya misled me, even after promising to be honest,” Arjun recounted, acknowledging the potential risks involved while competing.
