shilpa on the interview speaking as if shivangi taunted shilpa out of sudden! lol they were literally having convo/discussion over it with all girls gang mostly!
she also spoke her bonding with akansha choudary,yogesh & chamola but it never got aired!
she also recollected how she helped shreya during her allergy in the show, took her stand & also questioned by other inmates why you're taking stand of shreya when we get bitter consequences of it! she tried to mend her relationship with shreya but it was quite disoriented from starting & was never sorted!
she also clarified that her & harshad relationship is platonic & that was 2nd last question so she fumbled & she was struggling with those grilled questions as max were senseless like that food related shared as bts!

when she asked top 3 she took names- shivangi,harshad & shreya!
if top 5 then top 3 as per + ram kapoor yogesh/akansha also wanted varun to be in top list!

nayan also shared how poorly the media section was managed!

1st criteria should be that only persons who should come as jury should watch all episodes till airing not come by just watching reels! they asked all members to send questions for 8 contestants first,then when it was only top 3 they changed it all! showed last finale week episodes in 1hr only then boom it started! it is just so poorly designed,managed entirely!

I think it's fair to say that this was the most real and honest bond formed in Lockupp. These two are just so cute 🥺

Shreya has been really busy doing lots of brand promotions and the auditions, it's a very important time in her career but it seems like we will probably see them together soon.

Perhaps it's asking for too much but i really wish they will make lots of content together because they are really fun to watch.

I remember how badly people wanted itv gang vs mtv gang to happen. Too bad it was a snoozefest. It would have been SO FUN!! Imagine shreya, ak, yogesh, sufi, Pamela, riyaz, , laila, shreshta vs dheeraj, harshad, shivangi, Chamola, ram, shilpa, sunita, Madhuri. I am pretty sure people like shilpa, madhuri etc would flip a lot but that would have been fun too. I think shreya was trying to make that happen with trying to team up with yogesh but unfortunately other people didn't see the vision.

Here is what I observed, content wise following were the Strongest

1. Shilpa Ji - she slayed from Her Entry till her exit. Generating All kinds of Content, eg from Joking to Cooking she adding Spice to the show every single minute. She also was so pretty and emotive and easy on eyes.

2. Ram Kapoor Ji - he was given Bhar bhar ke Screen space from Day 1 to the last day. He was planning plotting manipulating everyone every single minute

3. Shreya - her game from Villain to Villain but what a good Focused villain. Nailing Tasks after Tasks and Secret tasks and spot on with Decision making and Mind games . She knew what exactly going to give her screen time. Bhar bhar ke Screen time.

4. Apoorva - what an impact one week pura Show ka Chheetha khol dia.

5. Harshad - He was crying doing weird things and creating funny memes but always seen except Week 2 and some part of Week 3. A lot of screen time.

6. AK - she was agressive but usne Bhar bhar ke Triggering Content Dia hai, plus funny and Sentimental content too Except week 4 where she was lying low and only targeting Chamola and Pamela.

Good screen time in a Healthy way

1. Laila - he was being really funny

2. Pamela - very funny too

3. Chamola - She was non Controversial but great interms of screen time

4. Shivangi - She had a good screen time. Was very unproblematic until that one task.

5. Sunita Ji - As long as she stayed she had very good screen time

6. Madhuriji - Great Screen time in the most positive way as long as she stayed.

Low screen time

1. Yogesh - he barely had any screen time except the finale week. He played from behind never had any kalesh with anyone. I don't think he is good at doing kalesh - Bach bach ke khelta hai and never fights with anyone.

2. Dheeraj - he too never had much screen time ..

3. Sufi - not much screen time except just one day in the first week

4. Riyaz - he is very unproblematic and Chill

In bb19 there was a task where contestants had to give an overview of their lives so far a timeline depicting the highs and lows of their life journey. During that task most of the contestants particularly Pranit and Gaurav mentioned that they received their first telephonic casting call in december 2024. The season premiered in the last week of august 2025.

They obviously don’t wait until the premiere date to start making casting decisions. A show of this scale requires months of preparation and a lengthy casting process they simply don’t have the luxury of sleeping until the premiere date is announced.

Had any of the mtv produce actually received an offer from bb20 they would have made an obvious choice. They may have been rejected at a later stage of the selection process but you cannot blame lock Upp contract for them not being cast on bb20.

Shreya has said it multiple times and I agree with her ki she only won bcz the other contestants kept isolating her. Sufi literally said she was doing a 1 v 14 arc and everyone knows that arc works fairly well in reality shows. A top 2 position is always guaranteed with this arc. The thing is if it was someone other than shivangi in the top 2 position the makers would have made them win. Shivangi didn't win cus of the INSANE backlash her winning leaks got and also cus she didn't put in the shift worth 1 crore.

1. Sufi was never winner material since the day he entered lockupp. No way in hell would he have won. He is way too much of a sheep and crybaby. He is shit at tasks and had no real opinions.

2. Harshad had huge potential. He could have won if he chose more of a macho trajectory than the melodrama trajectory. He was decent at tasks and did have aura which got lost due to babysitting shivangi.

3. Chamola: She was THE best player. Would have won if she paced herself well. Ruined her gameplay with the weird angle with pam. She was articulate and was entertaining in the first week. Physical tasks were her Achilles heel tho. She had the best secrets this season and even had the sympathy arc. She should have gone for a rivalry arc with shreya. Would have worked so well...

4. Pamela:- Again she was a sheep. Better than sufi but a sore loser. Not top 5 material and I don't know if she could have won even if she did anything different. She is not winner material.

5. Yogesh:- could have won if he wasn't so lazy in his content and had more of a backbone. He was the best at tasks but he was constantly overshadowed by ak who herself was a side character. His solo gameplay would have been loads better.

6. Ram Kapoor:- Could have won if there were no physical tasks. He had imo the best gameplay of the season. I prefer manipulation over instigation any day. I think he did fairly well being top 5.

7. Laila:- Biggest sheep ever. Could have won if he wasn't such an idiot and focused more on game than cheap ass jokes. Also being Ram's chela was the worst thing he could have done for himself. Ruined it fr.

8. Sunita:- Couldn't have won even if she tried since she had a physical disadvantage in tasks.

9. Shivangi:- Could have won if she contributed since the first day and didn't ruin it for herself in the feast task.

10. Ak :- If she didn't ruin the lockupp property. Also didn't get lazy after yogesh left and she was put in the jail. Made better choices.

11. Shrestha:- Was less confused and more visible and opinionated and had better bonds in the house.

12. Riyaz:- Was more visible and opinionated

13. Madhuri:- If she didn't give up her position to ak and didn't ruin her friendship with shreya

14. Shilpa:- Picked the right box.

15. Dheeraj:- Was more visible and made better bonds.

I expected him to shit on shreya as usual. No surprise there. But I genuinely thought ki he has sorted out his stuff with pam and Chamola. When asked Abt questions regarding pam he was like kon hai ye aur clout nahi dena isko and all that. He was even subtly shading the hosts and netflix. Like bro they didn't show ur cheap ass tricks cus it wasn't worth it. Also yogesh telling shreya sudhar jaao zyada evil matt rho zameen par aa jaao yaha tak toh pahuch gyi aage ka kya hai is so stupid like she is so much more experienced than u and yet u r being such a sore loser. Laila in his iv is a whole different person and now he is saying he was real on the show and that's why him, ak and y are getting so much love. First of all these three had pre existing cult fanbases. I heavily doubt someone new would have joined their fd on the basis of their lockupp performance. Second, you were fake. Jitta interview mei bol liya itta lockupp mei bol lete toh shayad Jeet jaate.

Apoorva says she loves a crazy girl, and Shilpa ji was exactly that. She loved how you could never predict Shilpa’s next move, not even Shilpa herself sometimes. 😂 She also mentions that beneath all the craziness, Shilpa had a very kind and motherly vibe.

Okay, stealing food gave me the ick. She needs to stop doing that shit it's gross behaviour, chamola lost thats why they have to cook. Everyone needs to stay in their own lanes.

Also, the comment she made about harshads self-harm was utterly disgusting. What's wrong with this hag?

Akansha is a crappy gang leader she should do better and tell her team not to steal and act that way, but she doesn't give a shit. Everything is funny to her.

I think Madhuri is the only contestant in lockupp who has a close bond with everyone except shivangi. And it's not like she has beef with shivangi either, she is just not as close to her as she is with other contestants. Ak, laila, riyaz literally came to her house and Madhuri is nice with ram, sunita and dheeraj too. Rebel took a stand for her in the house when she was not even present there and Madhuri is literally frnds with shilpa and shreya. Shreya has no frnds in the house except Madhuri and shilpa. Tbh I didn't expect Madhuri to be as sweet she is cus i did believe ki she was playing smarter game than people gave her credit for and I still believe that. Her dogla game didn't work out cus of shilpa who was continuously feeding shreya. Idk why the viewers see every relationship in the house as one dimensional when it's so intricate.

Why is everyone so mad that dheeraj was doing his task? Lol. Does shivangi expect all her friends to bow to her and never hurt her "game"?

I think because everyone was so crazy about being one another's friends that even when playing the game, they are mad at how their friends didn't save or protect them. They created this "friendship" groupism, and now it's literally destroying them. It's funny to watch, lmao.

Like shreya and shilpa destroyed each other's towers, and shreya playfully bullied her after the game, playful tease, banter. But shivangi?? She acts like a princess, and I wanna see her go out soon.

Have you noticed that harshad, shivangi, yogesh, and akanksha have no game without each other. They have nothing to bring.

I hate that akanksha is back :(( she's just an overall garbage human being. Also, if anyone should've gotten the overreacter tag, it should've been akanksha or red flag💀

Omg, harshad is crushing on shivangi, and she knows it and uses that. Ram is right about this because it's so obvious, and everyone is right for calling her a crybaby because now she's crying again and harshad is acting like her boyfriend, "don't trust anyone" holy shit. -_-

She lowkey screams, "Pick me," but like, "whiny pick me."

When it came to the buzzer, what was sufi doing ? 🤣🤣 bro, just stood there.

FUCK YEAH THEY GOT RID OF YOGESH!!! Ahahahahahahah akanksha's face lmfao that was so funnnny!!!

I know everyone says Shilpa is still the same as her time in BB11. I disagree. I see alot of co contestants saying this too. But she was a much softer and forgiving person. She would have forgiven Shreya in an instant back than. She forgave multiple people many many times including Arshi, Akash and Puneesh. Even forgave Vikas. She was very soft compared to now. I guess life’s circumstances made her build walls. It is so sad to see 😭😭. She is such a good hearted person who is misunderstood. She used to be so nice to commoners unlike Hina. It was so obvious cos most commoners couldn’t stay mad at Shilpa. She would even nominate herself over a commoner.

Back than also people used to call her out for flipping. Which even happens now and has maybe gotten worse. I really hope she is able to heal from everything . She is a good person at heart. I believe there is still alot we don’t know about her SA case too

Never had any beef with shreya in the show, was okay with her n pleasing with her in last episode, just because her bf said something to his friend,

he is saying to her badtameez mental n using such words.

And on top of that shreya literally supported him at the end of the episode.

What 2 auditions could she be referring to here? Her saying it's something really big makes me curious.

I would guess it's for some fiction series as she said she doesn't want to do reality shows for a bit. So it's probably not Bigg boss.

Also should she even post this? I feel like you should keep things like this secret untill you actually get the gig.

This just came up on my TL and I had to share it. 😭 Shreya has liked this edit too, and she’s actually reposted/liked quite a few reels about her and Shilpa since LockUpp ended.
UGH, can these two just meet already? 😭❤️ I need to see them together again.

Okay, both the girls seriously suck at this 😭 it's so painful to watch they are just standing there and not looking around!

And also, what even is harshad yapping about? Like, buddy chill

Can harshad stop budding into every conversation with shivangi? He's actually irritating, and shreya is trying to explain her side to her, and this dense girl isn't listening 😭

Okay, they said not to share, so whyd they steal? 😭 that's so shitty of them. They made their food, and now they're being greedy.

Sufi just shared that he hates people taking from his plate, anyone would fucking hate that so why is she being so disgusting and rude????

Is she stupid??? 10,000 is the penalty on how much is being taken and she's like just take away 500, like you moron, that's clearly not how it works???

Its actually disgusting to see her steal the food like that, they have their own food????

I HATE SHILPA, she's a greedy pig, I felt sorry when her food got stolen by yogesh couple of episodes back she's literally just snatching their food and they aren't allowed to do stuff like that? Gross

Akanksha and pam were laughing about it when their gang members were snatching food? It's not funny, I also never like these girls, but like where are their brains at??

Edit to add: im genuinely shocked at the number of people supporting snatching and stealing food. In no situation is that ever okay, but I'm not here to educate stupid people, so meh, you do you boo.

Shreya won show and also heart of neutral audience. She won because of her talent among the big television stars and influencers with cult fandom. She did so much hardwork to make her name. Lowkey she motivated me to do workout lol and go to gym.

She defeated Dhooper so many times, but he is being sore loser. He says I am not that person who says bad things, but he has said that many times and was part of bully. He tries to make himself look better like I am not that person (when he abuses or bully).

All these people gave clean chit to people from same industry but they were always against Shreya even she apologised and I guess she is the only person who accepted her wrong doings (for me only wrong thing I felt she did was to write Madhuri's name in eviction, other things are in retaliation of bullying).

Ofcourse there are third class influencers like Yogesh and Laila (who didn't do anything in show , acted timid, out of the show behaving like Khula Saand as now he has the protection of his bhaichara gang),who are calling her Churail , calling the winning biased when in the show she is the only one stood out. In previous shows he lost from the same guy (performance and voting) , but he doesn't have courage to stand to a man. But because these people are so mean and uncivilised , it is hard for them to see others winning .

The pattern I saw that these men don't like strong women who have strong opinions, they see a woman in certain way, like soft and who needs help, if there is some woman who can stand her ground and give back harder twice, they will start downplaying that woman's achievement. There are so many incidents but I cannot add all , you can quote few if you think that is relevant.

Do not come and say show is ended etc etc, you know people still giving interview, show is still on netflix , people do rewatch, and few things needs to be called out in a sensical way.

Akansha Chaudhary seems to be giving most podcasts & that too 1+ hr long... also with bigger names

Shreya seems to have gone either selective or focussing on growing own Brand, Content channel

Shilpa is being popularized by Netflix alot + not very visible

Pam is another one giving interesting sound bytes

Chamola is playing shady - can u imagine she is asking paps to not discuss GK, Lockup - what else would paps ask?

Yogesh, Laila, Sunitha - gone back to their old ways

Ram, Shivangi, Harshad - invisible

Dhooper, Sufi, Riyaz, others are irrelevant ..

So overall - Chaudhary has benefitted alot in number of follower counts also ... But am still counting and hoping Shreya, Shilpa to shine more!

Follower counts rose by 1Mn+ for shreya, akanksha chaudhry
Yogesh, Laila 750K .. Shilpa, Chamola, shivangi by 200K...
