Reality show Battleground Season 2 is grabbing attention after a major clash between mentor Nikki Tamboli and Abhishek Malhan . Nikki, who recently joined the show as the mentor of Team Lootere , got into a heated argument with Abhishek that eventually led to him walking off the set.
The tension began during a task when Abhishek’s team member Rishab failed to deliver a strong performance. Reacting to it, Nikki took a dig and said, “Cyber truck puncture ho gaya hai Delhi Dominators ka” which didn’t go down well. Abhishek responded, “Koi nahi bhai, idhar-udhar se, jab road se nikalte hai toh kutte bhaukte hai, sunna mat kar kisi ki.” The argument quickly escalated, and things turned more personal when he added, “Bana kaise diya mentor. Main na baat bhi usse karta hoon jo level ka ho,” prompting Nikki to hit back, “Haar bardaasht hoti nahi hai toh mentor bante kaayko hai. Ghar baitho, nahi bardaasht hoti hai haar toh.”
The exchange continued with Abhishek saying, “Aap ko bolna sahi hai. Zubaan aapki bohot lambi hai, usko control kar lo.” Soon after, he was seen walking out of the set. Once things settled, Nikki became emotional and broke down, saying, “Guys, I am very sensitive.” However, Abhishek reacted again, saying, “Phir bhi aisi zubaan hai?”
Amid the drama, the competition inside the house remained intense. Contestants had to vote for the least fit players, and based on the majority, Divyanshu and Sneha were declared the weakest. In another task, Hawa Baazi, Max and Rishabh went head-to-head, with Max winning the challenge. His strong performance also earned him the title of Toofani Player of the Week, pushing him to the top of the leaderboard.
With Nikki bringing in Team Lootere, including players like Satwinder Singh and Priti Mandal, the competition has become even more unpredictable and high-stakes.
