New Delhi: Kangana Ranaut-hosted controversial reality show, Lock Upp is gaining fame with the passing days. The contestants are trying hard every day to survive in the jail-like setup by performing tasks. Along with that, several revelations are being made by the contestants about their personal life.
Earlier, Mandana Karimi, one of the contestants on the show spoke about her ex-husband Gaurav Gupta and her alleged abusive married life. Now, in a recent episode, Kya Kool Hain Hum 3 fame talked about an abortion she had to go through.
When she was asked to reveal a secret of her life, during one of the episodes in Lock Upp, she revealed that while she was struggling with her past relationship with Gaurav Gupta, she went into a relationship with an ace director.
Talking about it, she burst into tears revealing her relationship with him and how she got pregnant. Most of the contestants in the show, including Kangana were seen getting emotional on listening to her story.
“The time that I was struggling with my whole situation…my separation, I did have a secret relationship. My relationship was with a very well-known director who talks about women’s rights. He’s an idol to many people. We planned a pregnancy…and when it happened, he completely backed off and his reason was that he did not think he was emotionally ready to become a father again. He already has a child. Suddenly he was like ‘I did not believe you could get pregnant so easily at the age of 33’. We then went to my best friend’s house because he said we should discuss with them as they are like my parents,” Mandana said.
Further, during the conversation, she stated that she tried to make the director understand her situation, however, it was of no use. Thereafter, she tried to abort her child and it had completely destroyed her.
She added, “When we reached there, he started talking to my friend and saying he was not ready. He had planned the whole thing to get my friends to convince me to have an abortion. I then apologised to my friends and got back to the house. When we went back, he started saying ‘You should have understood, my ex is not over me and there is a public case against me’. I had to take a decision because I come from a broken home. I took the step and I did have an abortion. I do not want to name that person because he does not deserve to be known by his name. And it just destroyed so much for me.”
