Overview
- Akanksha Chamola told fellow contestants on the Netflix show Lock Upp that she and actor Gaurav Khanna are getting a divorce and have been living separately for about a year.
- She said the relationship broke down because she does not feel a maternal instinct and does not want children while Gaurav wants to become a parent.
- Gaurav Khanna has publicly expressed continued love and support for Akanksha in brief media interactions and social posts but has not issued a formal statement.
- The programme’s format of using personal secrets as game currency has produced further on‑air disclosures — including a fellow contestant’s claim about Akanksha’s sexuality, Akanksha’s remarks on infidelity, and criticism of Ram Kapoor’s behaviour during a task — that have intensified coverage.
- The couple’s split has prompted heavy social‑media and tabloid amplification and leaves open immediate questions about whether Gaurav will formally respond and how the show’s airing of private details will affect the parties involved.
