The latest episode of Netflix’s Lock Upp 2 witnessed one of its most emotional moments after actor Ram Kapoor opened up about a deeply personal chapter of his life. During a task where contestants had to reveal closely guarded secrets, Ram stunned everyone by sharing that he had helped his terminally ill father plan his final days.
His emotional confession left fellow contestants speechless and sparked a conversation about love, loss, and one of the most difficult decisions a family can face.
Ram Kapoor Makes A Shocking Revelation
As part of the task, the keyword “Father” appeared on the screen before Ram Kapoor began narrating his story.
“I helped my father in planning his death,” he revealed, leaving everyone in silence.
The actor explained that his father was first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at the age of 63. Although the cancer was initially considered inoperable, he underwent 18 rounds of chemotherapy and recovered well enough to enjoy another decade of life.
However, years later, the disease returned.
Father’s Cancer Returned During COVID-19
Ram shared that his father’s cancer came back during the COVID-19 pandemic while he was in Singapore.
According to the actor, his father called his wife, Gautami Kapoor, asking to speak with him.
By then, his father had decided he no longer wanted to continue aggressive treatment.
Recalling the emotional conversation, Ram said his father directly asked him:
“Can you help me in dying?”
The request left him shocked.
“My first reaction was like anybody else’s. I said, ‘What the f*** are you talking about?'”
However, after a long conversation, Ram said his father convinced him that he did not want to spend his final days suffering alone.
Ram Kapoor Stayed Beside His Father Till The End
Ram revealed that his father made him promise he would remain by his side during his final moments.

According to Ram, he did not want anyone crying after his passing and had requested that he be buried on the very day he died.
“My Mother And Sister Still Don’t Talk To Me”
Perhaps the most heartbreaking part of Ram Kapoor’s confession was the impact the decision had on his family.
The actor revealed that his mother and sister have not spoken to him in more than five years.
“My mother and my sister still don’t talk to me. It’s been more than five years.”
Despite the emotional distance, Ram said he has no regrets.
He believes he fulfilled his father’s final wish with dignity and compassion.
“He Died Like A King”
