On June 29, 2026, Akanksha Chamola revealed the real reason behind her divorce from Gaurav Khanna on Netflix’s Lock Upp. The actress stated that she and Gaurav Khanna are getting divorced but maintain a cordial relationship. Akanksha shared that her decision not to have children was a primary reason for their separation. In a conversation with fellow contestants Shreya Kalra and Sufi Motiwala, she explained that she never had a maternal instinct, even when she was married. Gaurav was initially comfortable with her decision, but his perspective changed over time. Akanksha noted that most people marry with the idea of having children, and watching her husband desire something she could never provide caused friction between them. She reaffirmed that she had always made it clear that she did not desire children and had never felt maternal impulses. Akanksha also claimed that she and Gaurav had discussed the matter, and she had given him the option to leave the marriage if becoming a father was essential to him.
