Bigg Boss 19 Winner Gaurav Khanna Defends Wife Akanksha Chamola Amid Viral Dance Trolling

December 25, 2025 – Fresh off his historic victory in Bigg Boss 19, television star Gaurav Khanna has stepped up to protect his wife, Akanksha Chamola, from a wave of online negativity. The actor, who lifted the trophy on December 7, finally broke his silence regarding the viral video that saw his wife being targeted by social media trolls.

The Incident: A Celebration Turned Into Trolling

The controversy began following a high-energy success bash hosted by Gaurav’s publicist to celebrate his win. In a video that quickly went viral, Akanksha was seen dancing enthusiastically with a group of women. While many fans praised her spirit, a section of the internet—allegedly fueled by rival fan bases—began attacking her dance moves and personality. Some comments even went as far as questioning Gaurav’s choice of a life partner.

Gaurav Khanna’s Befitting Reply

In a recent candid interview with Hungama Studio, the actor shut down the critics with poise and logic. Gaurav clarified that the women Akanksha was dancing with were not strangers, but the very team members who worked tirelessly on his PR campaign while he was locked inside the Bigg Boss house.

“It was their success party, and we were there to celebrate their victory,” Gaurav explained. “Since I don’t enjoy dancing much, Akanksha joined them to make the moment bigger. She was celebrating the people who stood by me.”

“I Love Her No-Filter Attitude”

Addressing the trolls directly, the Anupamaa fame actor stated that he is completely unaffected by the negativity. He emphasized that much of the hate stems from “agendas” held by fans of other celebrities who wish to bring them down.

Gaurav went on to shower praise on his wife’s personality:

• The Extrovert Edge: He stated he loves that Akanksha is an extrovert.
• No Filter: He highlighted her “no-filter” attitude as one of her best qualities.
• Authenticity: He noted that these are the exact traits that their genuine fans love about them as a couple.

A Power Couple of 9 Years

Gaurav and Akanksha, who tied the knot in 2016, have been one of the most stable and loved couples in the industry for nine years. Gaurav’s defense of his wife has resonated deeply with his “GKians” (as his fans call themselves), who have since flooded social media with the hashtag #StandWithAkanksha.

Life After Bigg Boss 19

While the trolling has been a minor hiccup, Gaurav is currently riding a wave of massive success. After beating runner-up Farrhana Bhatt in a nail-biting finale, the actor has been busy with his newly launched YouTube channel and several upcoming projects. He concluded the interview with a message for his haters: “For those who don’t like me now, maybe you’ll like me in my next project. I will try my best to win you over too.”
