Bollywood playback singer Neha Kakkar is once again in the spotlight after she briefly shared — and then deleted — a cryptic Instagram note about taking a break from relationships, work, and responsibilities. While fans expressed concern over her emotional state, an old Instagram breakup post from 2018 has resurfaced online, drawing renewed attention to her past personal struggles.
Neha Kakkar, one of India’s most successful and talked-about singers, has often been open about her emotions on social media. However, her candid expressions have also frequently landed her in controversy.
Neha Kakkar’s Public Breakup With Himansh Kohli In 2018
Back in 2018, Neha Kakkar was in a highly publicised relationship with actor Himansh Kohli. The duo appeared together in her hit song Oh Humsafar, and their romance was widely celebrated by fans. However, within months, the relationship ended, and what followed was a very public and emotionally charged breakup.
Neha unfollowed Himansh on Instagram and deleted all their pictures together, signalling that the separation was far from amicable. On December 12, 2018, Neha shared a deeply emotional post expressing heartbreak and disillusionment.

“Mujhe nahin pata tha iss duniya mein itne bure log bhi hain… I know I’m a celeb, I’m not supposed to write all this… but I’m a human being too… aaj kuch zyada hi toot gayi.”
In the same note, Neha acknowledged the scrutiny celebrities face, adding that despite personal pain, public figures are expected to smile and perform professionally.
She wrote:
“Hum celebrities ke do chehre hote hain — ek personal, ek professional. Personal life jitni bhi kharab chal rahi ho, professional life mein you’ll always see us smiling.”
The post went viral at the time and became one of the most discussed celebrity breakup announcements on Indian social media.
Another Emotional Note That Was Later Deleted
Earlier in June 2018, Neha had shared yet another note hinting at emotional betrayal, stating that she had given her partner everything — including her people, contacts, and fan base — only to be forgotten. That post, too, was deleted shortly after being uploaded.
