Television star Gaurav Khanna, best known for his role in Anupamaa, made a deeply personal revelation on Bigg Boss 19 that has sparked conversations among fans. During a candid heart-to-heart with fellow contestant Mridul Tiwari, the actor admitted that while he dreams of becoming a father, his wife Akanksha Chamola does not want to have children.
The revelation came in the latest episode of the Salman Khan-hosted reality show, where Khanna opened up about his married life, his desires, and the compromises that love sometimes demands.

Nine Years of Marriage, But No Kids Yet
Gaurav Khanna and Akanksha Chamola tied the knot in 2015, and the couple will soon be celebrating nine years of togetherness. When asked by Mridul if they had children, Khanna replied with honesty, “No, my wife doesn’t want.”
The Bigg Boss 19 housemate admitted that he has always wished to become a father, but emphasized that marriage requires mutual respect and understanding. “I want, but it’s a love marriage. Whatever she says, manna padega. Pyaar kiya hai toh nibhaana toh padega,” he confessed, highlighting that his wife’s decision comes first.
Khanna explained that Akanksha’s reluctance to have children is not rooted in dislike for parenthood but rather in practical considerations. According to him, the couple leads a busy professional life, with both pursuing demanding careers in the entertainment industry.

“There are a lot of responsibilities. And it’s only two of us for each other. If I go for work the entire day and she also gets work, with whom will we keep the kids? We don’t want anyone else to take care of them,” he explained.
Akanksha, who is also an actress, reportedly believes that raising children requires undivided attention, something that might not be possible for the couple at this stage of their lives.
“Never Say Never”
Although the decision currently leans towards not having kids, Gaurav did not rule out the possibility completely. In his conversation with Mridul, the actor hinted that the door to parenthood may still be open in the future.
“Yes, of course we will see then. Never say never,” he said with a smile, leaving fans with a glimmer of hope that the couple may reconsider someday.
His comments reflect the delicate balance many modern couples face between career ambitions, personal choices, and the societal expectations of starting a family.
Clash with Zeeshan Quadri
Interestingly, the emotional revelation was followed by a heated moment inside the house. Shortly after the conversation with Mridul, Gaurav found himself in the middle of a spat with fellow contestant Zeeshan Quadri.
The argument began over something as routine as utensil washing duties but quickly escalated into a war of words at the dining table. Matters got worse when Gaurav intervened in Zeeshan’s conversation with another housemate, Tanya Mittal, which triggered tempers further.
The altercation became the highlight of the day, with housemates taking sides and the atmosphere turning tense. Gaurav, who is usually known for his calm and composed personality, stood his ground firmly during the exchange.
Outside the Bigg Boss house, Gaurav Khanna’s revelation about his marriage has already caught the attention of fans and social media users. Many praised the actor for being open about such a sensitive topic, while others admired the respect he shows toward his wife’s decisions.
On Twitter and Instagram, fans of the couple shared messages of support, with some calling Gaurav’s statement “the true meaning of love and compromise in marriage.” A few also highlighted how the actor’s honesty reflects the struggles faced by many modern couples balancing personal desires with practical realities.
