Reality show Lock Upp 2 continues to win hearts with its mix of drama and emotional moments. Recently, Dheeraj Dhoopar made headlines after host Riteish Deshmukh questioned him over allegations that his family tried to send outside information into the show through a chit hidden in his belongings.The latest episode turned emotional when Vinny Arora entered the show to support Dheeraj. The couple broke down as they reunited, leaving fans touched by their bond. Addressing the controversy, Vinny later shared a video on social media clarifying that the message she sent was not related to the game or any strategy.“In that message, I asked Dheeraj if he was okay. If he wasn’t, he should give me a sign. If he was okay, then he should play his game more actively. There was no outside information, no strategy, nothing like that. It was just a wife concerned about her husband,” she said.She further added that even the makers understood her intention. “Even the makers understood that it came from a place of genuine concern. That’s why they warned Dheeraj, even though it wasn’t really his fault. He wasn’t the one trying to cheat. I made an emotional mistake,” Vinny explained.The controversy began last week when Riteish Deshmukh revealed that despite restrictions, Dheeraj’s family allegedly attempted to send written messages inside the show, raising concerns about fairness.Fans reacted strongly on social media, with mixed opinions. While some supported Vinny, calling it a genuine emotional act, others pointed out that rules should be followed regardless of intent. Many also appreciated her for taking accountability and clarifying the situation publicly. Addressing the contestant, Riteish questioned Dheeraj last week and said, “We don’t allow any family member to visit the contestants. However, on humanitarian grounds, we allowed your son to meet you. That day, someone from your family tried to smuggle chits inside the show. We did not pay much attention to it then and let it slide. However, once again, along with your belongings, your family tried to send a chit with winning strategies written on it.”
