After watching the episode, people took to Twitter and reacted to the reality show. A person tweeted, "Big problem with this #LockUpp is the Jailor Khali. He’s really too slow that makes watching the show boring. I know he won’t be always there but today during the nomination I literally got bored due to his slowness. Otherwise, it’s absolutely #BiggBoss and fights started on day one."

Sharing a clip of two contestants fighting, a Twitter user wrote, "Tell me @ektarkapoor how it is different than Bigg Boss?" Comparing it to the reality show Bigg Boss, a person said, "#LockUpp looks like just another clone of #BIGBOSS franchise. Starstruck Indian tv audiences will bring the TRPs." "So basically this is Bigg Boss ka sasta (Bigg Boss' cheap) version," wrote another person.

People took to Twitter and reacted to the reality show.

A few of the Twitter users also praised the show. "#LockUpp sd perform in an unbiased manner to fill the gap of #BiggBoss which is now a complete scripted show which does not care of the audience and do Manmaani to choose the winner. Hope #EktaKapoor sd release this in TV & just destroy BB as #KanganaRanaut is better than biased BB anchor," said a fan. "Watching #LockUpp and someone pls find a better sound editor and ban Sunil Pal from talking," wrote another fan.
