What did Pavitra say about finding love again?

Confirming the news, Pavitra told Hindustan Times, “Yes, I’ve found love again, and this year, Diwali is all the more special for me as I’ll be celebrating it with his family.” The 39-year-old added, “I will be travelling to abroad as he and his family are there. I am a little sad that I won’t be celebrating Diwali with my family but also excited to be spending time with them.”

Talking about who the guy is, Pavitra Punia said that he is not an actor. “He is a businessman from USA, not at all an actor. A wonderful person, and kind. We’ve been going steady for quite some time now, and it feels right,” she added.

About Pavitra Punia and Eijaz Khan

Pavitra Punia and Eijaz Khan’s love story began under the bright lights of Bigg Boss 14, where their chemistry, fiery arguments, and emotional moments made them one of the most talked-about couples on the show. Fans still remember Eijaz’s heartfelt confession when he said, “I love her. My intention is honest, pure and pavitra, pun intended!… Let us not define or label it.”

After stepping out of the Bigg Boss house, the two continued their romance in the real world. Eijaz even introduced Pavitra to his family, and by 2022, they were inseparable — often calling themselves “as good as married.” Their relationship seemed rock solid, but with time, cracks began to show.

By February 2024, Pavitra confirmed the end of their relationship, saying, “There is a shelf-life for everything, nothing is permanent. In relationships, too, there can be a shelf-life. Eijaz and I parted ways a few months ago and I will always wish him well. I respect him a lot, but the relationship did not last.”

Eijaz, too, had kind words for his former partner. “I hope Pavitra finds the love and success she deserves. She will always be a part of my duas,” he shared.

Later that year, Pavitra spoke more candidly about what went wrong. She admitted that their strong personalities often clashed — “too much masculinity and too much femininity” — and clarified that religion had nothing to do with their split.
