'It All Reeks Of A Publicity Stunt': Gaurav Khanna, Akanksha Chamola Trolled After Divorce Revelation

Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa’s first episode aired yesterday, and it took the internet by storm after Gaurav Khanna’s wife, Akanksha Chamola, announced that she and her husband have been living separately for a year and have decided to get divorced. While the news came as a shock to their fans, a section of social media users has been slamming Gaurav and Akanksha for allegedly fooling the audience.

Many believe that either they were being fake during Bigg Boss, or Akanksha is lying now to gain attention for herself. During the episode, when asked to reveal one of her secrets, the actress shared, “Since we continued talking to each other, attended events together, supported one another, and shared everything, everyone believed things would work out.

But that feeling of being a married couple was no longer there. I think this will be big news even for our families.”

One user wrote, “If they were already separated for a year, then what was that 9th anniversary romance in BB?? Matlab seriously, itna fake #GauravKhanna, you and your wife have always been fake…” Another commented, “Nowadays everyone is just acting; there is no real connection. The only thing I liked about #GauravKhanna was his wife and his beautiful relationship with her. Her cute, mischievous personality attracted me. But it all turned out to be acting.”

If #GauravKhanna and her wife #AkankshaChamola heading for divorce and have been living separately from past 1 year toh #BiggBoss me vo sab drama tha kya ?

Akanksha ka to interest phele bhi nahi dikha tha but Gaurav ne to BB me full acting ki.

Too Bad

A third user shared, “Well honestly, it all reeks of a publicity stunt for #AkankshaChamola’s #LockUpp journey. Their last post together on IG is also from Holi, where they had very PDA-type poses. This doesn’t corroborate with her claiming that they don’t have anything like a married couple between them anymore. Secondly, if she doesn’t want to identify as ‘#GauravKhanna’s wife’ and has already been separated for one year, then why are her social media accounts still named Akanksha G Khanna? To me it’s simple—she wanted to come to Lock Upp, but the show’s concept is such that you have to have some controversy attached to you, so she tried creating this for eyeballs.”

When Gaurav Khanna openly defended Akanksha in Bigg Boss

During a media interaction inside the house, Gaurav became emotional after being questioned about Akanksha and her choice of not having kids. “It’s a very touchy topic. I love my wife; there are very few husbands who don’t listen to what their heart says and agree to what their wives want,” he had said.
