Salman Khan’s Bigg Boss and Kangana Ranaut’s Lock Upp are two of the most celebrated as well as controversial Hindi reality shows. While Bigg Boss has successfully completed 17 seasons on TV, Lock Upp has just completed its first season, which premiered on the OTT platform.

Both shows more or less have the same format, and that’s the reason viewers keep comparing them. In fact, season 1 of Lock Upp was hailed as better than all the past seasons of Bigg Boss. Amidst the competition, we now hear that there is a huge possibility that Lock Upp 2 and Bigg Boss 18 may clash as both shows will start around the same time.
