Shikhar Dhawan Leads ‘Battleground 2’ Line-Up

MUMBAI- After a successful first season, Rusk Media is returning with the second season of ‘Battleground’ on Amazon MX Player.

The new season will feature mentors Abhishek Malhan for Delhi Dominators, Priyanka Chahar Choudhary for Mumbai Strikers, and Rahul Chaudhary for Telugu Tigers. Former cricketer Shikhar Dhawan returns as Supermentor.

The competition will feature 16 contestants divided into four teams. Participants will face physical and mental challenges, including daily tasks designed to test consistency and ‘Fight Club Weekend’ face-offs that will determine eliminations.

At the end of the season, one male and one female contestant will be crowned India’s ‘ultimate Fitness Star’.

Dhawan said, “Season 1 proved us the kind of passion and potential this format brings out, and I’m excited to be back for an even bigger Season 2. This time, the bar is higher, the challenges tougher, and the journey more demanding. What excites me most is seeing contestants discover what they are truly capable of.”

Malhan, winner of the first season, said his focus this time would be on mentoring his team using the experience he gained during his title-winning run.

Choudhary said the show tests resilience, belief and the ability to stay steady under pressure, adding that her team would bring that mindset into every challenge.

The show premieres on April 17. (IANS)
