A Bigg Boss 20 entry may not be on the cards for Lock Upp 2 contestants just yet. Pamela Serena has revealed that there is a waiting period before the contestants can take up another reality show, adding an interesting twist to the ongoing casting buzz.
With Lock Upp 2 now wrapped up, attention has shifted to what its contestants will do next. Pamela Serena, who was among the season’s contestants, has now opened up about the restriction surrounding their next reality-TV appearance.
Pamela Serena Reveals The Reality-Show Waiting Period
Pamela was asked whether Lock Upp 2 contestants are currently free to participate in other reality shows. Her response made it clear that they cannot immediately move on to another reality-TV project.
She revealed that the contestants have to wait for a few months before doing another reality show. At the same time, Pamela indicated that work offers are already coming in and that she expects to travel to India frequently for upcoming projects.
So, while this does create a temporary hurdle for contestants eyeing shows like Bigg Boss 20, Pamela did not confirm that the contestants are permanently barred from entering Salman Khan’s reality show.
Does This Rule Out A Bigg Boss 20 Entry?
The timing is interesting because Bigg Boss 20 has been a major talking point among reality-TV viewers, with speculation around possible contestants continuing to build.
Pamela’s revelation suggests that the Lock Upp 2 contestants may have to wait until the stipulated period ends before taking up another reality show. However, she did not reveal whether she or any other Lock Upp 2 contestant has actually been approached for Bigg Boss 20.
There is also a precedent for Lock Upp contestants making the jump to Bigg Boss. Season 1 winner Munawar Faruqui later entered Bigg Boss 17 and went on to win that season.
Pamela Serena Has Plenty Of Work After Lock Upp 2
Despite the reality-TV restriction, Pamela indicated that her post-Lock Upp 2 calendar is not empty. She said several offers have come her way, while she is also working on projects that will bring her back to India regularly.
For now, the Bigg Boss 20 possibility remains open in the longer run, but Pamela Serena’s revelation makes one thing clear: Lock Upp 2 contestants cannot simply jump into another reality show immediately.
