The apology came after Vanshaj Singh, who entered the show as a wildcard revealed to Zaid that Kushal's remarks were the reason Gauahar faced massive backlash online.

Responding to his apology, Gauahar reassured him in the comments, saying he should not be swayed by "dirty play" and that not every silly joke deserves to be taken offensively.

Gauahar wrote in the comment: “Vanshaj is playing. Masti is ok, coz u know every silly thing doesn’t mean one gets offended. U are right, don’t get swayed by dirty play. Keep rocking Jaanu.”

It was earlier in July when Kushal made a distasteful joke. It was when Zaid asked Kushal for a cigarette, since the ones he had were not good enough.

Poking fun at Gauahar, Kushal had reportedly said: “Tujhe saare meri cheezein pasand aati hai. (You like everything I have).”

At that time, Gauahar came out in support of her husband and shared a post, where she mentioned: "Killer performance with zero insecurities," and "The more secure you are, the less offense you take. Not every thing needs a knee jerk reaction. Only the wise know to do better. Proud of you zaid darbar."

Gauahar married Zaid in 2020. The couple has two sons Zehaan, born in 2023, and a second son named Farwaan, born in 2025.

The actress started dating Kushal after meeting as contestants on Bigg Boss 7 in 2013. They broke up in 2014.
