Commenting on his association with 'Lock Upp', Munawar says: "Lock Upp' is going to be a one-of-its-kind show, as I believe it has the potential to change the dynamics of the content-viewing experience in the Indian OTT industry."
"Though it's going to be a tough and challenging journey for me, I am glad that this show also gives me an opportunity to be myself in a real set up, he adds.
'Lock Upp' will be hosted by the Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut. It will have 16 controversial celebrities locked in a jail for months without the amenities that we normally take for granted.
On the other hand, speculations are rife that television actor Karan Mehra of 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' fame might also join the reality show as one of the contestants, in order to counter his estranged wife Nisha Rawal, who became the first confirmed contestant on the show. Karan may joi the show to to prove his point and not be caught on the backfoot if there are any fresh allegations levelled against him by Nisha.
The show will be streaming from February 27 on ALTBalaji and MX Player.
