The highly anticipated second season of the controversial reality show Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa premiered on Netflix on June 27, 2026, and it is already delivering on its promise of explosive drama. While the new hosting duo of Farah Khan and Riteish Deshmukh and the revamped format are grabbing headlines, it is the contestants’ complicated histories and unfinished feuds that are truly setting the stage on fire.
The show has brought together 15 contestants with tangled pasts, and their unresolved issues are already threatening to boil over inside the jail. Here is a breakdown of the biggest rivalries and feuds that are dominating Lock Upp Season 2.
The Splitsvilla X6 Love Triangle Reunion
One of the most talked-about storylines of the season is the dramatic reunion of Yogesh Rawat and Akanksha Choudhary. The two reality TV stars were a popular couple on MTV Splitsvilla X6, forming a strong bond that became a major talking point of the season.
However, their journey was far from smooth. The drama reached a peak when Yogesh chose to reconnect with his real-life ex-girlfriend, Ruru Thakur, who entered the show as a wildcard. This decision left Akanksha heartbroken and created one of the most discussed moments of Splitsvilla X6. Their fallout and the unresolved tension between them have been a major point of interest for fans.
Now, with both of them locked inside the same high-stakes environment, viewers are eager to see how they will navigate their complicated past. Yogesh has stated that audiences will see the “raw and real” side of him on the show, while Akanksha has hinted that she is ready to finally share her side of the story. Their entry, alongside the presence of the keyword “Yogesh” in a secret task involving Akanksha, suggests this rivalry is far from over.
Ram Kapoor vs. Farah Khan and Riteish Deshmukh
Actor Ram Kapoor is no stranger to controversy, and his participation in the show has reignited an old feud with the show’s hosts. During the grand launch event, Ram Kapoor made a shocking revelation about his long-standing friendship with Riteish Deshmukh, claiming, “this has seen me without underwear!” This candid remark sent the audience into a frenzy.
Farah Khan immediately seized the moment to tease her co-host, and the banter continued until Ekta Kapoor, the show’s producer, delivered a pointed jab. She said, “Whether he wears underpants inside or not, one thing is certain: we will be the ones to strip him down.” This comment is seen as a direct and sharp reference to the public feud between Ram Kapoor and Ekta Kapoor. Despite being a former collaborator and leading man in many of her shows, tensions have been simmering, and this public roasting confirmed that all is not well between them.
The history between the hosts and the contestant doesn’t end there. During the launch, Shreya Kalra also clashed with Ram Kapoor, telling him, “You have such a big platform, there are so many people watching you. You’re 52, you’re still learning? That’s a big shock to me.” The launch event also saw Riteish and Farah bring up Ram’s controversial “gang r*pe” remark from the past, with Ram stating he has since learned from the incident but will never change his personality. With such personal and public animosity already on display, Ram Kapoor is clearly in the crosshairs of both the hosts and his fellow contestants.
Pamela Serena vs. Tejasswi Prakash
Another feud that has been reignited involves Pamela Serena, who has made it clear she does not want to see a certain celebrity on the show. At the press conference, Pamela named Tejasswi Prakash as someone she would not want to see inside the Lock Upp house, referring to the disagreements the two had during their time on the Netflix show Desi Bling.
Her statement has generated significant buzz, as it confirms that the tension between them from the docu-soap was not just for the cameras. While Tejasswi is not a contestant on the show, Pamela’s direct call-out has added another layer of intrigue for fans who recall their confrontation in Desi Bling and are curious to see if Pamela will address the feud further during her time in the jail.
