Reality TV star and actor Elvish Yadav is currently a mentor on the reality show Playground Season 5, alongside actor Tejasswi Prakash and content creator Aarush Bhola . A video from an upcoming episode has surfaced online, showing Elvish using curse words for Tejasswi during a heated argument. He later took to X to defend himself and accused the actor of bringing a gender angle into their disagreements.
Elvish and Tejasswi were previously close friends, but their stint on the show appears to have sparked a new rivalry between them.
A new video from an upcoming episode has surfaced online, showing the two getting into another heated argument over Elvish’s remarks.
Elvish said, “Even girls are driving the car perfectly While calling out his team members for their poor performance. Tejasswi objected to the comment and called him out, but Elvish interrupted her, saying, “Shut the f**k up.”
Dragging a gender angle into everything is not cool. I responded in the language that the situation deserved. Giving false interviews and speaking disrespectfully about my fans is unacceptable. And leaking videos from the set just to look cool or to make the other person seem wrong isn’t right either. The possibility of losing strong contestants led to a disagreement between the mentors.
The tension between Elvish and Tejasswi began around Episode 18, when the mentors played a secret card game that gave Tejasswi the power to swap contestants between teams.
Elvish accused Tejasswi of leaking the video and wrote, “If someone tries to create a “boy-girl” narrative about me on national television, I’m not okay with it and honestly, no one should be. In a recent interview, Tejasswi clarified that she does not hate anyone’s fandom but said she does not like any “content creator” asking his fans to attack someone by saying, “Jaao iski band bajao (go teach him a lesson),” seemingly referring to Elvish.
