Kangana Ranaut is all set to take a leap to OTT space with a reality show titled Lock Upp. 

Produced by Ekta Kapoor, the show will feature Kangana as the host and seems to be similar in theme as Bigg Boss hosted by Salman Khan. 

Recently, a teaser of the show was released that featured host Kangana bashing the “B’grade strugglers” and her “haters” who support “nepotism” as she talked about the concept of the show.

She can be heard saying in the teaser, “There are two kinds of people in the world- one who like me and others are those B-grade strugglers who stay in the news by bad-mouthing me. These haters filed FIRs against me to drown my voice and applied the nepotism formula. My life has been turned into a 24x7 reality show. But now it's my turn.” 

She further added, “I am bringing the baap of biggest reality shows. My jail, my rules, and locked here will be 16 controversial celebrities and I'll do with them what I want.” 

Sharing the teaser on her Instagram account, Kangana wrote, “Mera jail hai aisa, na chalegi bhaigiri na papa ka paisa!”
