Apoorva Mukhija Credits Sufi for Support After Controversy in Lock Upp 2

Apoorva Mukhija made a striking entrance into the reality show Lock Upp 2 as a wild card contestant, bringing a new dynamic to the series. Her presence was particularly notable as she initially joined the show as an informer for a week, yet she left a lasting impression on both the audience and her fellow contestants. In a recent episode, Apoorva engaged in a heartfelt dialogue with Sufi Motiwala, a fellow participant with whom she had previously experienced a rocky relationship. During their conversation, they both acknowledged their past grievances and expressed a mutual fondness for one another, highlighting the complexities of their friendship. Apoorva went so far as to credit Sufi for 'saving' her life, particularly in the aftermath of the controversy surrounding the show India's Got Latent, which had taken a toll on her mental health.

The bond between Apoorva and Sufi dates back to their time on Karan Johar's reality series, The Traitors. Although they initially formed a close friendship, their relationship deteriorated over time, leading to a period of estrangement. However, during their recent exchange on Lock Upp 2, Apoorva opened up about her feelings, admitting that she missed Sufi. She recounted how she responded to those who criticized her friendship with Sufi, who had been labeled as 'mean' by some. In a poignant moment, she revealed, "I tell them… I would’ve killed myself if, at the time of the Latent fiasco, if I hadn’t had Sufi." This candid admission underscored the significant emotional support Sufi provided her during a challenging time in her life, which resonated deeply with viewers.
