  • Shreya had called Dheeraj a loser and bootlicker

Actor Dheeraj Dhoopar’s wife, actor Vinny Arora, has reacted strongly to his heated argument with social media influencer Shreya Kalra in the latest episode of Lock Upp: Sach ya Sazaa. The clash came at a time when Dheeraj is safe this week and Shreya is at risk, with Shreya calling him a ‘loser’ and a bootlicker, while Dheeraj confronted her and flashed his middle finger. Vinny defended Dheeraj while accusing Shreya for her "cheap, revenge-seeking" strategy.

Following the episode, Vinny defended her husband in a video shared on her YouTube channel, Vinny Arora Dhooper, and criticised Shreya’s conduct on the show. She accused Shreya of seeking attention through fights and said her actions were making her "look like a fool."

Vinny said, "How many of you think that this Shreya Kalra in Lock Upp needs therapy? Because what in the world is wrong with her? Who told her that this strategy of feuding with everyone like a bull will make her win the show? Its making her look like a fool."

She went on to refer to Shreya’s earlier fights in the house, including her feud with Ram Kapoor and then with Yogesh and Akanksha, and said these were attempts to stay in the limelight and use it against them.

"I don’t know too much about Splitsvilla but what I will say that this is not Splitsvilla this is Lock Upp. Perhaps there was no one to help you strategise. Tell me one thing, you are speaking about trust but you did not act well in that aspect also when you revealed Akanksha’s secret. It was a sensitive thing which she should have revealed herself. What sort of cheap, revenge-seaking is this? I have understood what kind of a person she is," Vinny added.

Vinny slammed Shreya’s habit of labeling other contestants as bootlickers, firing back with, "You are calling everybody chaatu, toh tu bhi chaat le (You call everyone a bootlicker why don't you try that too)? It is just all in your head." She claimed that despite creating constant drama, Shreya ultimately emerged as the real loser of the situation.

According to Vinny, Shreya lacked the sportsmanship required to accept that her position in the game was vulnerable, which drove her to orchestrate a conflict just to stay in the spotlight. Vinny noted that Shreya intentionally targeted a co-contestant to manufacture an argument, adding, "You picked a fight for screen time, with Dheeraj. He lost his cool. He told you to shut up but you didn’t because then your screen time would be less."

She further said that Dheeraj was not hungry for screen time and would not bother looking at Shreya because of what she described as her negativity. Vinny added that Dheeraj had won many awards and had proved his merit over the years, saying there was no point in making accusations against him. She said he was loved by many and considered the Shah Rukh Khan of television. “You win the show when you win hearts, when you win tasks,” she added, while also calling Shreya delusional and saying she could never win the show like this.

Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa Season 2 features contestants including Ssunita Ahuja, Ram Kapoor, Shivangi Joshi, Akanksha Choudhary, Harshad Chopda, Yogesh Rawat, Riyaz Ali, Dheeraj Dhoopar, Shreya Kalra, Akanksha Chamola, Sreshta Iyer and Sufi Motiwala.

The latest episode’s argument between Dheeraj and Shreya, and Vinny’s response to it, have added to the ongoing drama on the Netflix show.
