During a candid chat in the garden area, Gaurav opened up about his married life and the choices he and his wife, actress Akanksha Chamola, have made together over the years.
Mridul asked Gaurav about fatherhood, to which he revealed,"We will complete 9 years in November." Mridul asked if he had kids. Gaurav replied, "No, my wife doesn`t want." He continued, "I want, but it`s a love marriage. Whatever she says, manna padega. Pyaar kiya hai toh nibhaana toh padega."
Backing his wife`s decision, Gaurav Khanna said that Akanksha`s concerns are valid. "Her thinking is also valid. There are a lot of responsibilities. And it`s only two of us for each other. If I go for work the entire day and she also gets work, with whom will we keep the kids? We don`t want anyone else to take care of them," he said. "I had told her that I want, but I understood when she explained, " he added.
