Pyaar kiya toh piche kyu hatu? (The love is still just as strong, and so is my support. I'll always stand by Akanksha...she's my wife, after all. If I chose to love her, why would I ever back away)"
"All the very best to Akanksha. Puri life uske saath khada hun," he added.

Calling the situation "not bad" between the two, Akanksha shared that they continue to stay in touch but have realised they are not compatible as life partners."Things are not bad between me and Gaurav. We still talk to each other. We don't think we are compatible as partners because we both see very different futures. And, unfortunately, it's not with each other," she claimed.
