As we all know, almost every Indian reality show is a desi version of some western show like Bigg Boss, Kaun Banega Crorepati, etc. and there’s no issue with it. However, when Ekta Kapoor announced her show Lock Upp, it felt like a fresh breath of air but looks like we were wrong. Recently, Hyderabad Civil Court issued a restraining order and banned the streaming of the show hosted by Kangana Ranaut due to copyright issues. What is this behaviour?

Ahead of its finale, the controversial reality show of Kangana Ranaut, Lock Upp got locked in legal trouble. A man named Sonabar Baig argued that the concept of ‘The Jail’ belongs to him and he shared the concept with Endemol Shine’s Abhishek Rege but he cheated on him and stole the concept. After that, Hyderabad Civil Court banned the streaming of Lock Upp on any platform and issued an injunction. As we all know, Ekta Kapoor is the ‘Queen of Soap Operas’ and looks like she’s not in the mood to lock the gates of the jail and she’s still streaming the show, okay then. Jagadishwar Rao – petitioner’s counsel said that the makers of Lock Upp are violating the order issued by the court, as per reports. Ekta, we know that it’s your world and we are just living in it but law and order naam ki bhi koi cheez hoti hai, right?
