Akash Choudhary made a name for himself with reality show series on television before joining the cast of the popular drama Bhagya Laksmi. Besides taking the small screen by storm as Viraj Singhania, the model-turned-actor has been on Dare to Date and Splitsvilla 10. Now, the actor has been making headlines for possibly being a part of Lock Upp Season 2.
The Mr India Worldwide pageant winner has been approached for the show that’s all set to hit the airwaves soon and has been in the news for a while with speculations of a number of celebrities being considered to be locked up.
An inside source shared, "Akash has been offered a spot in the upcoming Lock Upp season. Although the offer is tempting, and reality shows hold a special place in his interests, Akash is currently weighing his options. He's carefully considering the advantages and disadvantages before making a decision."
Ekta Kapoor’s show garnered immense popularity when it kicked off, with none other than Bollywood firebrand
Kangana Ranaut making her small-screen debut as the show’s host. If Akash decides to join the show, he might contest against the likes of Umar Riaz,
Soundarya Sharma, and Emiway Bantai, whose names have floated around as tentative participants.
Lock Upp has 17 celebrities locked up in jail without their usual daily comforts. They're split into teams and have to do tasks to get the things they need to stay alive while they're in LockUpp. The goal is to keep going until only one of them is left standing as the winner. The show had Munawar Faruqui as the winner the first time around.
