Dheeraj Dhooper's Wife Defends Lock Upp 2 Chit Controversy
22 Jul
Summary
- Dhooper's wife explained his poor health before entering the show.
- She admitted to sending a note due to her concern for his well-being.
- The note reportedly asked if Dheeraj was okay and requested a sign.
Vinny Arora, wife of television actor Dheeraj Dhooper, has addressed the recent chit controversy on the Netflix reality series Lock Upp 2. She explained that Dheeraj was in poor health prior to filming and nearly withdrew from the show due to his condition, driven by a commitment to the makers.
Arora admitted to sending a handwritten note, which violated the show's rules, stating it was an "emotional mistake." She clarified that the message was not a strategy but a heartfelt inquiry about Dheeraj's well-being, asking him to signal if he was unwell.
The situation arose when host Riteish Deshmukh confronted Dheeraj about alleged attempts to pass notes into the jail. Despite the rule breach, Dheeraj received only a warning, leading to viewer accusations of favoritism. Arora emphasized that Dheeraj was unaware of the notes found among his belongings and that her actions stemmed solely from concern for her husband.
She further shared her anxiety watching Dheeraj on screen, noting his puffy eyes and apparent discomfort, which she interpreted as signs of deteriorating health. The actress was also caring for their son, Zayn, who was unwell simultaneously.
