Key facts
- Akanksha Chamola, Dheeraj Dhoopar, Sunita Ahuja confirmed as contestants
- Lock Upp is hosted by Kangana Ranaut
- Show is in its second season
Lock Upp Season 2 is set to feature a notable celebrity roster, with Akanksha Chamola, Dheeraj Dhoopar, and Sunita Ahuja confirmed as contestants on the controversial reality show. The announcement, reported by The Indian Express, marks an early reveal of what promises to be a high-decibel second season of the Kangana Ranaut-hosted programme.
Dheeraj Dhoopar is among the best-known names on the list, having built a devoted following through his long-running television career. Sunita Ahuja, wife of actor Govinda, brings her own brand of outspoken celebrity to the format, while Akanksha Chamola adds to a cast that spans different corners of the entertainment world.
The first season of Lock Upp, which aired on Alt Balaji and MX Player, attracted considerable attention for its unfiltered format, where celebrities are confined in a jail-like setting and compete for survival. Its return has been anticipated since the original wrapped with strong ratings.
With the contestant lineup now beginning to take shape, the show's producers will be hoping the new cast can generate the same level of public engagement that made Season 1 a talking point across social media and mainstream entertainment coverage.
