Lock Upp Season 2, co-hosted by Riteish Deshmukh and Farah Khan, returned with another dramatic episode on Netflix. The latest episode brought a major twist as the Controllers chose to save Yogesh, leading to the eviction of two contestants - Madhuri Jain Grover and Akanksha Choudhary - during the special midweek Judgement Day.

Lock Upp Season 2 episode 15 saw Madhuri Jain Grover bid an emotional farewell to the jail. Before leaving, she told Shreya Kalra that she held no hard feelings, even though she had named her for elimination.

Lock Upp Season 2 Mid-Week Eviction

Akanksha Choudhary was also eliminated during the midweek eviction. However, a surprising announcement by Riteish Deshmukh hinted that her journey may not have ended.

Lock Upp Season 2 host said Akanksha would not re-enter Lock Upp Season 2 in the usual way, sparking speculation that she may have been moved to a secret room. While the makers have not confirmed it, several media reports have suggested this possibility.

If Akanksha has indeed been shifted to a secret room, it could change the game completely. The remaining contestants may believe she has left the show, while she could secretly watch their conversations and learn who is supporting or plotting against her.

Netflix Accused Of Favouritism

As Akanksha narrowly escapes the Lock Upp midweek eviction, netizens accuse Netflix of 'clear-cut partiality'. While her fans celebrate and await her comeback, others question why Riyaz didn't get the same choice. 

A user wrote, "Its clear cut partiality just because makers want nibbi vs vile Shreya to have content they saved her. Why this option is not for other contestants also clear cut favouring these vulgar people #LockUpp2 why #Riyazali #Shreshta #Madhuri not given the same privilege."

Another user mocked Akanksha's fans and wrote, "2.0 3.0 10.0 and still the same cunning side character with no class..her begins now never comes." A third user wrote, "Btw its unfair to others as the makers send Akanksha to the secret room."
