Reality Show – Apoorva Makhija Questions Ram Kapoor’s Repeated Gestures Towards Co-Contestant
Reality Show – The latest episode of Lock Upp Season 2 sparked fresh conversations after influencer Apoorva Makhija openly expressed her displeasure over Ram Kapoor’s repeated habit of kissing fellow contestant Shreya Kalra during various tasks on the reality show.
The episode featured a “Truth or Lie” challenge in which Apoorva Makhija was assigned a secret responsibility. Without revealing her opinions to the contestants, she had to observe the responses given by Ram Kapoor and Varun Yadav, also known as Laila, and silently indicate to the camera whether she believed each answer was truthful or false.
Truth Challenge Brings Personal Behaviour Into Discussion
During the game, Ram Kapoor was asked whether Shreya Kalra often became irritated because he repeatedly kissed her while participating in tasks. The actor admitted that this was true. Apoorva, following the rules of her secret assignment, signaled that she believed his response was honest.
The exchange quickly became one of the most discussed moments of the episode, as it shifted attention from the challenge itself to the contestants’ personal interactions inside the house.
Shreya Kalra Shares Her Experience
Shortly after the question was asked, Shreya Kalra spoke privately with Apoorva about the situation. She explained that Ram Kapoor had frequently kissed her on the forehead and cheeks during different tasks. According to Shreya, these moments often left her feeling uncomfortable because the actor would unexpectedly change his behaviour immediately afterward, making the interactions frustrating for her.
Her comments offered additional context to the answer given during the game and highlighted why the issue had become a point of discussion among the contestants.
Apoorva Reacts Strongly Inside the House
As Shreya described her experience, Apoorva Makhija appeared visibly upset. She questioned why Ram Kapoor continued repeating the same behaviour and remarked that it was making her angry.
Former winner Shilpa Shinde also joined the conversation by recalling an earlier task in which Ram had kissed Shreya on both her forehead and cheeks. Her observation reinforced that similar incidents had occurred previously during the competition.
Earlier Episode Had Already Triggered Online Debate
The latest conversation comes only days after another episode in which Ram Kapoor was seen kissing Shreya Kalra on the cheek after completing a task. That incident attracted widespread attention on social media, with several viewers criticizing the actor’s repeated physical gestures toward female contestants.
Many online users questioned whether such behaviour was appropriate in the competitive environment of a reality television show. The discussion continued across entertainment platforms as clips from the episode circulated among viewers.
Similar Gesture Towards Another Contestant
The controversy surrounding Ram Kapoor’s conduct did not end with his interactions with Shreya. In another recently aired episode, he was also seen kissing contestant Akanksha Chamola on her hand while speaking with her during a casual conversation inside the house.
That moment also became part of the broader discussion among viewers, many of whom compared it with his earlier interactions involving other contestants.
Previous Statement Also Drew Public Attention
Ram Kapoor had earlier faced criticism for a separate comment made during a conversation with Apoorva Makhija. When asked what he planned to do first after leaving the show, the actor candidly replied that he wanted to “make love” to his wife, Gautami Kapoor.
While some viewers viewed the remark as a straightforward expression of affection towards his spouse, others debated whether such comments were appropriate within the context of the reality show. Combined with the recent episodes, the statement has kept Ram Kapoor at the centre of discussions surrounding Lock Upp Season 2.
