Shreya Kalra has won Lock Upp Season 2, taking home the winner’s trophy and ₹1 crore in prize money. Television actor Shivangi Joshi finished as the first runner-up, while Yogesh Rawat secured third place as the second runner-up. Ram Kapoor and Shilpa Shinde were the other contestants in the top five.

Hosts Riteish Deshmukh and Farah Khan announced the result during the grand finale streamed on August 5, 2026.

How the Lock Upp Season 2 Winner Was Decided

The final result was not based only on a conventional public vote. India Today reported that votes came from a public jury, former contestants and hosts Riteish Deshmukh and Farah Khan. The cumulative count placed Shreya ahead of Shivangi at the end of the finale.

The top five were also narrowed down through tasks and eliminations. Ram Kapoor exited the title race first, followed by Shilpa Shinde and Yogesh Rawat, leaving Shreya and Shivangi as the final two contenders. Reports reviewed for this article say the hosts announced Shreya as the winner. The claim that producer Ektaa Kapoor made the final announcement is not supported by the main finale reports.

Did Shreya Kalra Win by Seven Votes?

Times of India reported that Riteish Deshmukh and Farah Khan said only seven votes separated Shreya and Shivangi. The Economic Times also reported the same seven-vote margin, describing it as the difference after votes were cast by the hosts, former contestants and members of the finale jury.

The figure can therefore be attributed to the finale announcement rather than described merely as an unsupported online rumour. However, the show has not released a complete public breakdown showing how each person voted. The safest wording is that the hosts reportedly announced a seven-vote margin.

What Shreya Kalra Won

Shreya received the Lock Upp Season 2 trophy and a cash prize of ₹1 crore. After her name was announced, she hugged Shilpa Shinde on stage and received the trophy from Riteish Deshmukh. India Today reported that she kissed the trophy as the hosts brought the season to a close. Her victory followed a season in which she remained one of the programme’s most prominent and divisive contestants. Her confrontations, alliances and strategic decisions kept her central to the show’s storyline.

Who Reached the Lock Upp Season 2 Finale?

The five finalists were:

• Shreya Kalra — winner
• Shivangi Joshi — first runner-up
• Yogesh Rawat — second runner-up
• Shilpa Shinde
• Ram Kapoor

The finale included performances, confrontations, questions from the jury and task-based eliminations before the final result was announced.

What Happens Next?

The confirmed result is clear: Shreya Kalra won Lock Upp Season 2, Shivangi Joshi finished second, and the winner received ₹1 crore. The seven-vote difference makes the result appear unusually close, but it should be understood in the context of the programme’s mixed voting system rather than presented as a seven-vote difference among millions of viewer ballots.

There has been no confirmed announcement about Lock Upp Season 3 in the reports reviewed. Until the makers release an official update, any claim about the show’s return remains speculative.
