The Controversial Promo

The promo that drew attention features a task in which contestants are running, and a heated argument breaks out between Rajat and Digvijay. Digvijay jokingly refers to a “team of lunatics,” prompting Rajat to retort, warning him against disrespect. The confrontation escalates, with Rajat slapping Digvijay, pushing him, and tearing his T-shirt, leaving co-contestants rushing to intervene.

Viewers took to social media to voice their anger. Comments included:
