Lock Upp: Shreya Kalra apologises to Akanksha Chaudhary after inappropriate fight

Inside the barracks, a heated viral confrontation broke out, leading to questions online about whether the truce will hold.

Shreya makes a statement
Shreya had been sure for days she wasn't going to apologise.

Shreya speaks out
For days, Shreya had been certain that she would not apologise. That changed at a sentencing hearing, when she was apparently told to reflect on what she had done. 

Later, she went to Akanksha in the barracks, who was reading quietly. Shreya apologised hesitantly at first but eventually regretted the incident that had caused their clash. 

It was one of the few times of peace in a house of bickering and alliances.

Akanksha Stays Chill
Shreya said Akanksha was composed. She listened. She answered shortly. Did not escalate. 

It was a thing of beauty to see her take it so cool, especially after the fiery exchanges between the two earlier in the season. The other contestants watched the exchange from afar.

Internet Response
Within minutes of the episode’s airing, social media was flooded with clips of the apology. Reactions have been mixed. 

While Shreya was lauded by some of the fans for taking the initiative to clear the air. Some also praised Akanksha for taking the mature way out and not dragging the fight. 
But some in the audience were wondering if the apology was genuine or the pressure of the house.

Will This End the War?
With the tension seemingly cooling down, fans are now left wondering if this is the end of the Shreya and Akanksha feud or if there is more drama to come. 

In Lock Upp, every conversation can change the equations in the house. This could be the moment that alters the perception of both contestants by each other and by the viewers as the competition heats up.
