The rivalry between Elvish Yadav and Tejasswi Prakash has become one of the talking points of Playground Season 5, with the two mentors frequently finding themselves on opposite sides during discussions on the reality gaming show. Their latest heated exchange has now spilled onto social media, with Tejasswi's boyfriend Karan Kundrra adding a humorous twist to the ongoing drama.
Karan recently shared a video on social media in which he could be seen singing a Punjabi song centred around playful arguments and disagreements. Given the ongoing exchanges between Elvish and Tejasswi, fans were quick to connect the video with the duo's on-screen rivalry and interpreted it as a light-hearted reaction to their frequent clashes.
Elvish Calls Tejasswi Biased
The latest confrontation took place during a discussion involving the teams on Playground 5. The disagreement began after Elvish made it clear that he would not want any player from his team to be swapped.
Tejasswi responded by questioning the logic behind the statement, asking who would willingly want to lose a member of their team. The conversation soon turned into a heated exchange, with both mentors taking digs at each other.
At one point, Tejasswi told Elvish that she was not his mother to teach him. Elvish responded by telling his team members that he considered himself their brother and would guide them.
The argument continued as Tejasswi made another sarcastic comment about Elvish learning to respect other people's homes.
The exchange took a sharper turn when Elvish accused Tejasswi of being biased right from the beginning. Tejasswi immediately questioned the allegation and asked who she was supposedly biased against.
Elvish appeared unfazed and pointed out that the entire interaction was being recorded, suggesting that the controversy could eventually lead to trolling online. Tejasswi, however, maintained her composure and said she was not intimidated by the possibility of social media reactions.
She also questioned whether her professional success depended solely on online engagement.
Karan Kundrra's Reaction Adds a Fun Element
While the argument between the two mentors generated discussion among viewers, Karan Kundrra's Punjabi song, "Kaala doriya kunde naal adiya e oye ke chota devra bhabhi naal ladiya e oye", video gave the episode's controversy a lighter angle. His playful performance prompted fans to speculate that he was indirectly commenting on the repeated disagreements between Tejasswi and Elvish.
The social media reaction has further added to the interest surrounding the two mentors, whose contrasting personalities have already made their interactions a recurring feature of the season.
