Explosive Controversy – Accusations Against Prince Narula
The biggest shock of the episode came when a contestant named Deyali made a shocking claim in her audition form.
She wrote that Prince Narula takes money to select contestants in his Gang and that she wanted to replace him as a Gang Leader.
The Shocking Accusation
🔹 Deyali claimed that a guy named Khushdeer told her during the Chandigarh auditions that he had heard from an agent (who was allegedly close to Prince Narula’s wife, Yuvika Chaudhary) that Prince charges at least 20 lakh rupees to select Roadies.
🔹 To verify the claim, Rannvijay asked Deyali to hide in a corner while Khushdeer was called in.
🔹 When asked about Prince taking bribes, Khushdeer initially denied it, stating that only hard work gets contestants selected.
🔹 However, when Deyali confronted him with a voice recording of their conversation, Khushdeer admitted that a casting agent named Rakesh told him that a former Roadie, Siwet Tomar, allegedly paid 20 lakhs to get selected years ago.
🔹 To clear the air, Khushdeer called the casting agent Rakesh during the show, but Rakesh denied the bribery claims.
Prince Narula Loses His Cool
🔥 Prince Narula was furious, especially since his wife Yuvika’s name was dragged into the controversy.
🔥 He threatened to beat up Khushdeer, but Rannvijay and Siwet stopped him from losing control.
🔥 In the end, both Deyali and Khushdeer broke down in tears, realizing their mistake, and they were let go.
