Unity Kapoor’s new reality show ‘Lock Up’ is currently creating a lot of buzz in the entertainment industry and one of the main reasons is the host of the show – Kangana Ranaut! The ‘Tanu Weds Manu’ star, who has already rocked the film industry with some of her powerful performances in female-centric films, has now picked up a new role for her – a host!

in an interview with yearsKangana revealed how Ekta was eager to see him as a person rather than an actor playing a character on screen.

“Ekta said that you play a lot of strong women on screen but you know how strong you are and how strong your personality is. I’d rather use this than give you a character to project and hide yourself beneath. I want to see you as a person, the ‘Queen’ actor revealed.

‘Lock Up’, which is currently running on the OTT platform, sees the most controversial celebrities languishing in jail-like setups with basic amenities. Meanwhile, on the film front, Kangana will soon be seen in films including ‘Tejas’, ‘Dhaakad’, ‘Manikarnika Returns: The Legend of Didda’, ‘Emergency’ and ‘The Avatar: Sita’.
