Bringing a fresh wave of uncertainty to an already unpredictable game, actor and content creator Rishabh Jaiswal, reality TV personality Jashwanth Bopanna and actress Sonam Malik are all set to enter the Tower as wildcard contestants, turning up the heat and challenging the existing order. Sharing the promo on Amazon MX Player, the makers wrote, "Ek nahi, do nahi… seedha teen new players! Tower ka balance hilne waala hai!"

With three new faces entering a game where power is everything and trust can be fleeting, the big question is: who will claim the keys to the Penthouse as a Ruler, and who will find themselves starting out in the Basement as a Worker? One thing is certain: the arrival of three new contestants could turn the game on its head, and no position in the Tower is guaranteed.

To note, Lock Upp winner Shreya Kalra's boyfriend, Rishabh Jaiswal had hinted at his entry into the show. He took to Instagram to share a picture of himself holding a card with ‘wild card' written on it. Rishabh became known after appearing on MTV Splitsvilla 14 and MTV Roadies 19.
