Akanksha & Gaurav's Divorce: Planned for Lock Upp Fame?

Gaurav Khanna was the first official visitor on Netflix's Lock Upp, entering the house during the show's visiting hours segment. His appearance followed actress Akanksha Chamola's confirmation on the premiere episode that she and Khanna are heading for a divorce. They have been living separately for the past year. Chamola clarified that despite their decision to part ways, no bitterness exists between them. She explained that they realized they are not compatible as partners, each envisioning a different future.

Khanna's entry saw him deliver a short poem before greeting Chamola, who became emotional. The incident, however, has drawn criticism online, with many viewers suspecting the couple is using their divorce narrative for publicity and show advantage. Chamola previously shared that she never had a maternal instinct, and while she was open to discovering it, she eventually realized it wasn't for her, a realization Khanna initially accepted.

Gaurav Khanna and Akanksha Chamola married on November 24, 2016, in Kanpur. Chamola has appeared in various television shows, including "Santoshi Maa" and "Crime Patrol."
