‘Das Saal Khel Gayi Mere Saath’: Gaurav Khanna Takes A Dig At Akanksha Chamola Amid Divorce Buzz
Mumbai: Television actor Gaurav Khanna recently appeared on ‘Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa’ as a guest to support wife Akanksha Chamola.
During the episode, he clarified that although the two are separated, they are still legally married and have not filed for divorce.
However, it was one light-hearted remark about Akanksha that caught everyone’s attention.
Host Farah Khan gave him and Akanksha some private time to speak, and have an honest conversation about their relationship.
“It is the biggest news right now. We discussed divorce in May. But people think we’ve been divorced for a year. They are saying she was auditioning for Bigg Boss and I was doing it for sympathy. Everybody wants a piece of this pie. I was so surprised by the way people reacted. They got an open ground to party. Legally, you are still my wife,” Gaurav said.
When Akanksha broke down in tears, Gaurav comforted her, urging her to stay strong, and told her to focus on winning the show.
Later, when Akanksha asked Gaurav if she had a chance of winning, Farah stepped in and jokingly said that she did not need any advice about the game.
Gaurav quipped, “You don’t think I know that? Jo 10 saal se mere saath khel gayi, voh koi bhi show jeet sakti hai (The person who played me for 10 years can win any show).”
Gaurav’s remark sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some viewers finding it funny while others criticised the comment.
“Feeling bad for GK, even after giving so much love, this is what he gets in return,” one user commented.
“More power to you man, you deserve all the happiness and success,” wrote another.
Well said GK ye aurat khel gayi tumhare saath 10 saal 🥺

Gaurav and Akanksha tied the knot in 2016 after dating for some time.
Akanksha revealed at the beginning of ‘Lock Upp 2’ that she and Gaurav have been living separately for the past year, having decided to part ways. That surprised many fans.
She also shared that Gaurav has always wanted children, while she does not wish to become a mother, saying she has never felt a maternal instinct.
According to Akanksha, this difference in their life goals may have played a role in their separation.
Last week, fellow-contestant Shreya Kalra revealed that Akanksha is bisexual.
Akanksha later confirmed it herself, saying she had been in relationships with women before tying the knot with Gaurav.
