Akanksha Chamola has made another noticeable change to her Instagram account amid her separation from actor Gaurav Khanna. The actor has unfollowed Khanna and removed photos and reels featuring him from her Instagram profile, adding a new public development to the couple’s ongoing separation.
Khanna, meanwhile, continues to follow Chamola on the social-media platform and has retained photographs featuring the couple on his profile, according to the latest reports about their Instagram activity.
The social-media changes come after both actors have spoken publicly about their decision to separate and amid continued interest in their personal lives.
Akanksha Chamola Removes Gaurav Khanna Photos From Instagram
Chamola’s latest Instagram activity has drawn attention because her profile previously included pictures and reels featuring Khanna.
She has now removed content featuring her estranged husband and unfollowed his account. The change follows several developments since she publicly addressed their separation on Lock Upp 2.
The Instagram update should not, by itself, be interpreted as confirmation of any new legal development in their relationship. Neither an unfollow nor the removal of photographs establishes the status of divorce proceedings.
Khanna’s Instagram profile, however, continues to show his connection with Chamola through the content he has retained, while he continues to follow her account.
Chamola Previously Asked Instagram About Her Username
This is not the first time Chamola’s Instagram account has become part of the public discussion surrounding the separation.
Earlier, she had sought assistance from Meta India and Instagram over changing her username. Her account continued to use the handle “akankshagkhanna,” which contains Khanna’s surname.
The issue attracted attention because it came after Chamola had publicly confirmed that she and Khanna were living separately.
Akanksha Responds to Rs 10 Crore Alimony Reports
Chamola’s latest social-media changes also come shortly after she responded to reports claiming that she had demanded Rs 10 crore as alimony.
In an interview with Mashable India, Chamola rejected the reported figure and questioned why she would continue with her current circumstances if she had already received such a large amount.
She said:
“Agar manga hota aur agar mil gaya hota to main yaha baithti. Agar sach me mere pas itne paise hote na to main kab ka ye desh chor kar chali gayi hoti.”
She also said that if she had that level of financial resources, she would rather use the money to travel and see different parts of the world.
Her remarks were a direct response to reports concerning the alleged alimony amount. The reported claim should therefore be understood as an allegation that Chamola has publicly disputed, rather than as an established settlement figure.
When Did Akanksha Chamola and Gaurav Khanna Separate?
Akanksha Chamola and Gaurav Khanna married in November 2016.
Chamola publicly discussed their separation during the premiere of Lock Upp 2. She said the couple had been living separately for about a year before their separation became public.
At the time, she explained that their decision was not necessarily the result of hostility between them. Instead, she described a fundamental difference in how they viewed their futures.
According to Chamola, the two continued to communicate but no longer believed they were compatible as life partners.
Her comments offered a different picture from the kind of public conflict often associated with celebrity separations.
Gaurav Khanna Later Addressed the Separation on Lock Upp 2
Khanna subsequently appeared on Lock Upp 2 as a guest.
During his appearance, he spoke about the impact Chamola’s public announcement had on their families. He said the news had come as a shock to both sides of the family and that he subsequently found himself dealing with the reactions of relatives on both sides.
His appearance gave viewers another perspective on the separation, following Chamola’s earlier decision to speak about their relationship on the show.
Different Views About Starting a Family
The couple’s differing expectations about their future have also featured in discussions surrounding their separation.
Chamola had previously spoken about not experiencing a maternal instinct, while Khanna reportedly had different expectations concerning having children.
Chamola has also publicly discussed her bisexuality and said that Khanna was aware of it during their relationship.
These are personal matters that the actors have themselves discussed publicly, but they do not by themselves establish the legal reasons or outcome of any divorce proceedings.
What Akanksha Chamola’s Instagram Move Means
For now, Chamola’s decision to unfollow Khanna and remove their shared content represents a visible change in how she presents the relationship on social media.
However, social-media activity should not be confused with a legal update. The latest Instagram changes do not independently confirm whether divorce proceedings have been completed or whether there has been a change in the couple’s legal status.
Their separation has already been publicly acknowledged by Chamola, while both actors have offered their perspectives on the relationship.
As attention continues around the former couple, their Instagram profiles are likely to remain a point of interest for fans. The latest changes, however, primarily indicate a shift in Chamola’s social-media presence rather than providing confirmation of a new legal development.
