Lock Upp 2 witnessed one of its most emotional moments yet after a heated argument over gender equality took an unexpected turn. What began as a contentious debate inside the jail soon led to strong reactions from host Farah Khan and special guest Huma Qureshi. They called out contestant Varun Yadav aka Laila and his friend Aarush Bhola for making alleged sexist remarks against Pamala Serena's friend, Lailli Mirza. During the Judgment Day episode, Farah questioned Laila about Aarush's entry. " Varun, jab Aarush ghar ke andar aaya, the first thing he said... ye word hai use karne ka? [Varun, when Aarush came inside the house, the first thing he said was... This is the word to use?] she asked. To which Laila replied, " Us waqt dimaag nahi chal raha tha. [My mind wasn't working at that moment.]" Huma immediately cut him off, referring to his defence that it was Delhi slang.

All that Abhishek Sharma needs is a start, but there hasn't been any discussion about the talented opener's wretched run in the T20 World Cup so far, bowling coach Morne Morkel said ahead of India's first Super Eights game against South Africa here on Sunday. Abhishek is yet to open his account in the current edition of the tournament and during Friday's training, he was seen spending considerable time with head coach Gautam Gambhir. Gambhir was seen trying to explain to him certain finer points and like a diligent student, the flamboyant southpaw nodded in agreement.
After that he went for a high catch session.
At times, excess training can prove to be counter productive and Abhishek was seen bowling to the other batters for better part of the game.
When asked if there's discussion in general within the team on Abhishek, Morkel denied emphatically.
"Absolutely no discussion. He's a world class player. So far in the tournament, luckily, there's been some guys standing up for Abhishek (others scoring runs)," Morkel told the media.
However, he agreed that Abhishek needs to score runs as they enter the business end of the tourney.
"But we're going through a very important phase of the World Cup now and we expect him to do well.
"And I'm pretty sure, not just for the team, but also for all the viewers watching the game. Because he's (Abhishek) entertaining, and we love to see that.
"So yeah, I'm pretty sure he's hitting the ball well. It's just a matter of getting that start and Abhishek will get going," Morkel said.
