The latest episode of Netflix's Lock Upp 2 turned out to be one of the most emotional and explosive yet. This week, each contestant was assigned the responsibility of protecting another inmate's secret in exchange for money to buy food. The first secret to be revealed belonged to Ram Kapoor. As the keyword "Father" appeared on the screen, Ram made a shocking revelation, saying, "I helped my father in planning his death."


The Bade Achhe Lagte Hain actor revealed that his father was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at the age of 63. Since the cancer was inoperable, he underwent 18 sessions of chemotherapy, after which the "cancer was almost gone." Ram added, "He lived till 73. A good life."



Unfortunately, Ram's father was diagnosed with cancer once again. Although doctors were hopeful because he had responded well to treatment the first time, the actor said the situation was very different. Ram shared that while his father was a wealthy man, he never wanted to live under his shadow. Instead, he chose to move away and build his own identity as an actor.


Recalling the difficult phase, Ram said his father's cancer returned during the COVID-19 pandemic when everything was under lockdown. "He (Ram's father) was in Singapore, it was COVID time...Unhone Gautami ko phone kiya aur use bola mujhe Ram se baat karni hai," he said. According to Ram, his father had decided that he no longer wanted to continue fighting the disease. "Unhone decide kar liya tha ki I want to go."


Sharing one of the most emotional moments of his life, Ram recalled, "Unhone point blank mereko bola 'Can you help me in dying?'" Talking about his initial reaction, he said, "Obviously my reaction was same like anybody else. I'm like 'What the fuck are you talking about?' But, he managed to convince me that main agar nahi krunga to wo akele marenge."
