Shreya Kalra calls out Ram Kapoor
Speaking about the incident, Shreya recalled that she had entered the show excited to meet Ram Kapoor, who had joined the reality series as a senior contestant. However, she alleged that the interaction quickly made her uncomfortable. According to Shreya, Ram greeted her with multiple kisses, leaving her shocked by the unexpected gesture.
She claimed that the repeated display of affection crossed her personal boundaries. “Even my dad doesn’t kiss me this much,” Shreya said while describing the moment, adding that she felt uneasy and did not know how to react at the time. She maintained that the incident left her uncomfortable despite the light-hearted atmosphere inside the house.
Shreya further stated that she believes consent should be respected in every situation, irrespective of a person’s age or stature. She stressed that no one should assume physical affection is acceptable without ensuring the other person is comfortable. Her comments have since gone viral, prompting mixed reactions online. While many users supported her stance on consent and personal space, others argued that the interaction may have been intended as a warm greeting.
The alleged incident has become one of the most talked-about moments from Lock Upp, with clips and discussions circulating widely across social media platforms. The controversy has reignited conversations about appropriate behaviour between contestants on reality shows and the importance of respecting personal boundaries even in unscripted entertainment.
Ram and Shreya’s bond
As of now, Ram Kapoorhas not publicly responded to Shreya Kalra’s allegations. The makers of Lock Upp have also not issued an official statement regarding the controversy.
The episode has once again highlighted how interactions inside reality shows often extend beyond entertainment and spark larger conversations among audiences.
