Lock Upp: Who is evicted contestant Tehseen Poonawalla? His controversies, reality shows and all he did on Kangana’s show

Pune-based industrialist Tehseen Poonawalla entered as a wild card contestant on Kangana Ranaut’s show, Lock Upp. Like stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui said on the show, Tehseen was desperate to prove he is something with the help of the reality show. However, it did not hold true since he got evicted from another reality show at the beginning.

Who is Tehseen?

Apart from being an industrialist, Tehseen is also a political analyst. Hailing from Pune, he has also been a news anchor, presenter and columnist.

Tehseen is well-connected to the Gandhis and Congress

Tehseen got married to Monicka Vadera. Does the surname ring a bell? Yep, she is Robert Vadera’s sister. The very same Robert who is married to Priyanka Gandhi from Indian National Congress.

What are Tehseen’s controversies?

Tehseen’s biggest controversy involves breaking ties with his brother Shehzad Poonawalla over a comment on Congress. Tehseen publically disagreed with the statement which led to a huge feud among the family. According to Tehseen’s recent comments, the two have sorted out their differences now.

What did Tehseen do in Lock Upp?

Tehseen was mostly looked down upon in Lock Upp. Many contestants made fun of him on his face and behind his back. He was accused of trying to jump into matters without knowing the whole truth (which he has also accepted doing on the show).

Tehseen was also a part of Bigg Boss 13.

The ex-Lock Upp contestant is also an ex-contestant on Bigg Boss 13. It was one of the most-loved seasons of all time. The season hosted Sidharth Shukla (who then became the winner), Shehnaaz Gill, Asim Riaz and Rashami Desai among others. Tehseen’s ‘cockroach’ fight with Sidharth became a huge laughing matter during and after the show. Thus, Tehseen tried to show his better image in public this time around. Unfortunately, he barely succeeded this time either.
