Kangana Ranuat calls out Dheeraj Dhoopar for lacking “main character energy” in Lock Upp 2
Lock Upp 2 – You don’t even have the ‘S’ of Shah Rukh Khan”—that was Bollywood star Kangana Ranaut’s brutal reality check to actor Dheeraj Dhoopar in the latest teaser of Lock Upp: Sach Ya Saza. Making a surprise comeback to the reality show, the season one host did not mince her words as she schooled Dhoopar for failing to take charge of his game and letting himself get overshadowed by co-contestants.
Kangana’s witty statement to Dheeraj
In the recent teaser of Lock Upp 2 , Kangana is seen back with her swag and bold personality , putting intense remark on Dheeraj Dhoopar’s game . During the task she said to Dheeraj, “You’re calling yourself Shah Rukh Khan. You don’t even have the ‘S’ of Shah Rukh Khan, man. You don’t have the main character energy at all. Side mein.. side mein.. side mein…You’re completely getting sidelined.”
She was flared at Dheeraj and said that is not showing his own presence in the show by not being vocal enough for himself. Many critics believe that the actor is getting overshadowed by fellow contestant and actor Ram Kapoor’s presence as they both share a close bond .
Dheeraj and Shreya’s rift
Dheeraj Dhoopar finally broke his quiet streak in the recent episode, getting indulged in a heated argument with Shreya Kalra. The drama unfolded during a task that saw Shreya fighting in the danger zone while Dheeraj remained safe. Frustrated by her position, Shreya called out the safe contestants, accusing them of ganging up on her because she is a strong player in the game, even going as far as calling them “losers.”
Refusing to take the insult sitting down, Dheeraj confronted her, which quickly escalated into a shouting match. Dheeraj fired back, “You won’t be standing in front of me if it was not this show.” Seeing the actor finally stand up for himself, Farah quipped, “Finally Dheeraj has woken up.”
Kangana also mocks Ram Kapoor
Kangana Ranaut also called out Ram Kapoor for his stubbornness and ongoing refusal to accept feedback. Questioning his attitude toward the reality show, the host stated, “Ram, game ko seriously nahi lena tha, aur agar lagta hain ki you are too big for this jail toh aap aayein ho kyu? Apni ye fuhadpan dikhane ke liye (If you do not want to take this show seriously then why bother to come? Just to act cheap)?”
Defending his stance, Kapoor responded, “When the right time comes, I will own my truth as well and as better than anybody here.” However, Ranaut dismissed his justification, firing back, “Don’t defend yourself if you want to improve.”
This follows a prior confrontation in the previous episode where Kapoor refused to take feedback from host Farah Khan, prompting an irked Khan to label him a “stubborn a**.”
