Riteish Deshmukh Evicts Yogesh Rawat Over TRP Comments on Lock Upp 2
In the reality show Lock Upp 2, contestant Yogesh Rawat claimed the show's TRP dropped after his eviction, suggesting the makers had to bring him back due to fan demand.

Riteish confronted Yogesh about his remarks and ultimately evicted him from the show, criticizing his attitude and urging him to be responsible for his words. Co-host Ram Kapoor supported Riteish's stance, reinforcing that no participant is bigger than the show.
