Gaurav expresses desire to have kids

In the latest episode, Gaurav was seen having a heartfelt conversation with YouTuber Mridul Tiwari. During a candid chat in the garden area, Gaurav spoke about his married life with Akanksha, sharing insights into the choices they have made together as a couple over the years.

When Mridul asked Gaurav about fatherhood, he revealed, "We will complete 9 years in November."

Following that, Mridul asked if he had kids. Gaurav replied, "No, my wife doesn't want. I want, but it's a love marriage. Whatever she says, manna padega. Pyaar kiya hai toh nibhaana toh padega (Will have to agree. If you've loved, you'll have to see it through).”

Backing his wife's decision, Gaurav shared that he feels Akanksha's concerns are valid. He shared, "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. I had told her that I want, but I understood when she explained.”

At that time, Mridul mentioned that the situation may change over time, to which Gaurav said, “Yes, of course, we will see then. Never say never."
