# Farrhana Bhatt denies Tejasswi-Elvish rift rumours on Playground 2026-08-25T16:04:41+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Farrhana Bhatt has dismissed rumours of a rift between Tejasswi Prakash and Elvish Yadav on the reality show Playground Season 5. In an exclusive chat, she admitted she was brought onto the show as an 'agent of chaos' and that her role was to stir things up. She insisted the two are good friends and that the on-screen tension was part of the game format. Bhatt also rubbished reports that Tejasswi does not talk to Elvish off-camera, saying they were very cordial with each other in her presence. Separately, she called a stunt involving scorpions on Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 the most traumatising event of her life. The show currently airs on television. ## Indian Opinion Analysis This is a standard damage-control statement from a show participant, not a neutral third-party account. Reality shows routinely manufacture conflict for ratings, then have cast members walk it back when fan backlash turns personal. The timing matters: Khatron Ke Khiladi 15 is airing now, and Bhatt's appearance on Playground Season 5 overlaps with the buzz cycle. The denial protects both shows from negative viewer sentiment. Whether Tejasswi and Elvish actually have a personal issue is unverifiable here, what is certain is that both shows benefit from the controversy staying on screen and off social media. The next test is whether either party issues a direct statement. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com Straightforward interview-based piece with no editorial framing or judgement This story was synthesised by AI from the source linked above.
