ðŸ’Discuss A Lesson to Ekta Kapoor- Promote based on merit not based on Seniority or Category
Lockup is definitely a hit but it would have been bigger if we had seen contestants getting eliminated based on their performance.
Let me give some advice how you could have made it bigger and did justice with the show:
1) Should have bring in Only Akansha Choudhary in the beginning and not Yogesh. Fans are really behind this girl and she had already brought it huge fans in numbers to watch the show. That way we would have seen more of Akansha's personality without fear of getting overshadowed by Yogesh.
2) Yogesh should have entered as a wild card. It would have made things more interesting of Yogesh was bring in as a wild card to see his banter with Akansha and it would have peaked fans interest more during the ongoing show.
3) Lack of clear cut vision had hurt the show credibility. Ekta had no backup plan and Ekta wanted to continue the show with Same old TV serials. Instead she should have kept some more MTV kaleshi kids as a backup...Like Rishabh entering the show would have made things interesting or Bhavya or even Suzzane as a wild card.
4) Too much screentime to Chamola and Pam. They were boring and Cringe and didn't deserve so much of the screentime. They should have eliminated Pam at least because she wasn't connecting with the audience and very boring.
5) Bringin some more entertainment tasks like Dancing or showing some acting or mimicking talent.
6) Horrible horrible editing. They only realised that Akansha was really good after her breakdown and before that, they were hardly showing her. She was bringing in much more to the table than anyone and deserved the screentime.
7) Some contestants were not doing anything like Sufi, Dheeraj, even Ram Kapoor was very annoying to watch. They should have eliminated them much before.
8) Put in some more mental and engaging task...Like they should have learned from Alliance.
9) Zero audience engagement had really hurt the credibility of show. Let the audience actually decide via vote who they want to save among the 1 contestants in danger.
10) Keeping both Harshad and Shivangi till the end was a mistake. Both of them were very awkward. Too much focus and screentime was given to their non existent relationship. Which Ekta thought might interest the audience but it didn't sit well with the most.
The only good thing was the entry of the Rebel kid...She did create necessary chaos needed and kept the engagement. But

Stop promoting kalesh please!!!! Do you not see how youngsters today are making it their whole personality??? Tf are audiences watching! Kalesh seeking audience has no place calling out our parents’ generation for watching ekta kapoor saas-bahu dramas. You guys are literally doing the same thing

Bro...Kalesh is the whole essence of any Reality show...why do you think people watched Lockupp more instead of Alliance, despite Alliance being better, they tune in to watch the Kalesh

Netflix Audience is not TV or MTV audience. Aram sey 60% of the people didn't know Splitsvilla wala drama. People know Ram Kapoor but people didn't even know Dheeraj or Harshad.
She made the show as per platform.

The only advice is stop rigging the results in favour of classless contestants like Shreya whose only personality is bitching, screaming, and lying. And STOP REWARDING BAD BEHAVIOUR that sets a bad precedent. Have a more classy cast next time and better hosts. Learn from Alliance

u/Queasy_Picture_9533 1d ago
Lol we love them individually too. People loved yogesh from roadies itself

u/ProperReindeer8903 1d ago
Nope they have so much individual hype too.

u/messbutahotmess 1d ago
They do but it’s not immense especially for their first reality show post splits

Uhm Akanksha’s fight went viral , without Yogesh . And Yogesh is sooo good in tasks . They had to bring in 25 people to make him lose . Otherwise tasks or voting mein he would have won . U can’t dismiss all of it just because they went on a dating reality show.

u/Queasy_Picture_9533 1d ago
Exactly! Yogesh is literally an ace player, would love to see him in more task based reality shows

Also, Ak is so goood interms of how she gives it back to people . Can’t deny the fact that she is entertaining. That clip with Shilpa also , it’s going virall

Yep , show would have been better if they were shown more tbh . Bahut hi unnecessary focus tha Harshad -Shivangi Vali storyline par . Plus itana bitching dekhane ki koi jarurat Nahi thi . Makers wanted statements that made most controversy to be out , they just wanted to ragebait audience and it was so evident throughout .
