Lock Upp 2 winner Shreya Kalra hits back at bias claim

Lock Upp season 2 winner Shreya Kalra has responded to viewers who called the show 'scripted' and 'biased', questioning why similar accusations were not made when other contestants benefited from twists. During an Instagram Q&A, a fan asked her whether she thought she deserved to win. Hindustan Times reports that she replied, 'You tell me if not me then who?'

Republic World says she pointed to multiple instances during the season: contestants brought back after being voted out, a secret room used for Akanksha Choudhary, and an advantage taken from her and given to another contestant. Host Farah Khan, accused of favouring Shreya because both are managed by Qyuki, has said she did not know about the connection.

Shreya won the trophy and Rs 1 crore cash prize after a finale involving five contestants. The top two were decided via a Q&A round with media and reality stars including Prince Narula and Mannara Chopra.
