A Shocking Revelation Inside the House

Actor and reality television personality Kushal Tanwar, popularly known as Gullu, made a shocking revelation while inside the Bigg Boss 20 house. The actor revealed that he went through a divorce in 2024 after being married for around four to five months.

Opening Up to a Fellow Contestant

Gullu made the revelation while having a conversation with fellow Bigg Boss 20 contestant Qazi Touqeer. Speaking about his personal life, he said the experience was more than a heartbreak, as he had gone through a divorce. "I had a serious heartbreak. Not something like a breakup, I had a divorce," Gullu said, catching Qazi by surprise.

Details of the Difficult Period

When Qazi expressed surprise over the revelation and asked when the marriage had taken place, Gullu opened up about the difficult phase he went through. "I got divorced in 2024. It was a very depressing phase. I was married for 4-5 months. Everyone thought it was wrong and I kept trying but then I understood it wasn't working. On our side, marriages happen early, and I had to marry because of my family," he said, pointing to family pressure as a factor behind the marriage itself.

Choosing to Move Forward

Gullu said he finally decided to focus on his work and hoped that life would get better after the difficult period. "Nothing can go worse than this, now, life will give me better moving forward from this. And I just decided to focus on my work," he recalled.

The Divorce Coincided With His Roadies Stint

He further revealed that his divorce proceedings took place while he was associated with Roadies, adding a professional dimension to what was already a personally turbulent time.

How His Wedding Pictures Were Leaked

Gullu further added how his wedding pictures were leaked while he was in Goa with the Roadies gang. "I was in Goa with the Roadies gang and someone leaked out images. I thought it was a game over for me. I didn't know what to do," he said, describing the moment as one of genuine panic given the public nature of his work at the time.

A Lack of Family Support

Gullu also spoke about the lack of support he received from his family during the period, and said there was a disagreement over the divorce, with him wanting to end the marriage while his family opposed his decision. "There was a fight in which I wanted divorce and my family was against it. My family members had cut me off completely at that time. All of this took a year to settle these matters. It took a toll on me but I am finally out of all of this," he said, offering a candid account of how the fallout extended well beyond the marriage itself into his broader family relationships.

A Lighter Moment to Close the Conversation

Qazi later lightened the conversation by making a song for Gullu, saying the lyrics suited his personality. The two ended their conversation on a lighter note, offering a moment of levity after what had been a fairly heavy personal disclosure.

Revisiting an Earlier Controversy

Meanwhile, the revelation also revisited an earlier controversy surrounding Gullu's wedding pictures. For the uninitiated, when the images had surfaced online long ago, he had reportedly dismissed them as fake, making this latest on-show admission a notable reversal from his earlier public stance on the matter.
