Some comments have a funny way of boomeranging back — and Gaurav Khanna is learning that the hard way. Rubina Dilaik and husband Abhinav Shukla recently opened up about an old remark Khanna allegedly made about their marriage, and given his own headline-making split from wife Akanksha Chamola, the timing couldn’t be more ironic.

What actually happened
On their YouTube channel the4POV, hosted alongside Hina Khan and Rocky Jaiswal, Rubina and Abhinav recalled the time Khanna was gearing up for Bigg Boss 19. When a mutual friend asked why he and Akanksha didn’t enter the show as a couple, Khanna reportedly quipped that he didn’t want to turn his marriage into a public spectacle “like Rubina and Abhinav” — a jab referencing their emotional journey through Bigg Boss 14.
Now, with Akanksha confirming their own divorce on Lock Upp 2 after nearly a decade together, Rubina didn’t hold back.

The comeback that landed

Meanwhile, Akanksha has been candid about the split on Lock Upp 2, revealing the couple had already been living separately for a year before going public.
Why this matters
Television’s reality-show universe runs on interconnected drama, and this exchange is a reminder that old comments rarely stay buried — especially when karma has impeccable comic timing.
