“Doston, jo mujhse puch raha hai main Bigg Boss jaungi ki nahi — main just abhi ek pagalkhane se nikal ke aayi hoon.”
Her remark translates roughly to: “Friends, for those asking whether I will go to Bigg Boss, I have just come out of a madhouse.”
The comment reflected the mental and emotional exhaustion she said she experienced during Lock Upp 2.
Rather than taking part in another competition immediately, Shreya indicated that she would prefer exploring a different role within the reality-TV space.

Shreya’s Lock Upp journey was far from straightforward.
She initially attracted attention for her confrontations with other contestants and was often perceived as one of the more controversial personalities in the house.
Her relationships with fellow participants also became part of the show’s storyline. According to the information surrounding her journey, she formed only a small number of close friendships, with one of those connections ending following an eviction.
Despite the conflicts, Shreya remained a significant presence throughout the competition.
Her performances eventually earned appreciation from the show’s hosts, with her ability to remain central to the game’s narrative becoming one of the defining aspects of her run.
She ultimately emerged as the season’s champion.
Shreya Wins ₹1 Crore Along With the Trophy
Shreya’s victory came with both the Lock Upp 2 trophy and a reported ₹1 crore cash prize.
The win marked a major turning point in her reality-television career, particularly after a season in which she had been involved in several contentious moments.
Her decision to step away from another reality competition immediately after the win may therefore come as little surprise to viewers who followed her demanding journey.
Bigg Boss 20 Rumours Continue
While Shreya has addressed her own participation, speculation surrounding the rest of the Bigg Boss 20 lineup continues.
Several celebrity names have reportedly circulated online, including Nia Sharma, Arjun Bijlani, Karan Patel and Jannat Zubair.
However, unless the makers or the respective celebrities officially confirm these reports, the names should be treated as speculation rather than a confirmed contestant list.
Rumours about Nia Sharma and Arjun Bijlani joining the franchise have surfaced previously as well, making their names familiar to Bigg Boss followers.
Bigg Boss 20 Promos Hint at a New Theme
The promotional campaign for Bigg Boss 20 has also generated considerable interest among viewers.
One teaser features Salman Khan making a dramatic entrance on horseback, followed by a cryptic reference to the popular film Karan Arjun.
The promo includes the line:
“Joh Karan Arjun mein hua tha, woh hoga ab Bigg Boss mein… Thathastu!”
A second promotional video reportedly introduces the idea of contestants receiving a “vardaan”, adding another layer of mystery to the upcoming season.
These promotional hints have encouraged fans to speculate about how the show’s format or storyline could differ from previous editions.
When Will Bigg Boss 20 Premiere?
According to the information currently supplied for this report, Bigg Boss 20 is scheduled to premiere on September 6 on JioHotstar and Colors.
The official contestant lineup and any format-related developments should be confirmed by the show’s makers before being treated as final.
For now, one thing appears clear: Shreya Kalra does not want to immediately trade one reality-show battle for another.
After emerging from Lock Upp 2 with the trophy and prize money, she seems more interested in using her experience from the show in a different capacity rather than becoming another contestant inside the Bigg Boss house.
