Gaurav wants kids but I can't...: Akanksha Chamola on divorce 

Television actors Akanksha Chamola and Gaurav Khanna are headed for divorce, as per the former.

The couple's differing opinions on parenthood reportedly led to their separation.

On the OTT show Lock Upp Season 2, Chamola revealed that she never felt a strong desire to become a mother, which eventually created an emotional distance between her and Khanna.

'Gradually, I realized that I am not meant for it'

In a clip that is going viral online, Chamola can be seen telling co-contestants Shreya Kalra and Sufi Motiwala, "When we were married, I never had a maternal instinct. But I was open to discovering it."

"Gradually, however, I realized that I am not meant for it, and he was okay with that. But I guess in time that shifted."

She added Khanna had initially accepted it but later developed a strong desire to have children, which she couldn't accept.

'I told him if he wants to leave me'

Chamola said she had communicated her feelings about not wanting children long before their separation.

"Now he wants to have kids and I can't give him that. Nahi hai mere mein instinct, woh maine bohot pehle bol diya tha (I don't have the instinct; I had told him long ago). So we had a discussion where I told him if he wants to leave me, then leave me, fair enough."
