Gauahar Khan shares romantic post for husband Zaid Darbar after defending him over Kushal Tandon's joke
Mumbai, July 7
After defending Zaid Darbar, who faced backlash for his banter with her former beau Kushal Tandon, actress Gauhar Khan has posted a romantic post for her husband on social media.
The romantic post comes right after Gauahar supported Zaid after he laughed at a joke about her with actor Kushal Tandon in the controversial reality show 'Alliance'.
A video from the show started doing the rounds when Zaid was narrating how he asked for a cigarette from Kushal as the ones he had got were not good enough.
Poking fun at Gauahar, Kushal had reportedly said: "Tujhe, saare meri cheezein pasand aati hai. (You like everything I have)."
Gauahar shared a post, where she mentioned: "Killer performance with zero insecurities," and "The more secure you are, the less offense you take."
She added: "Not every thing needs a knee jerk reaction. Only the wise know to do better. Proud of you zaid darbar."
The actress then shared a picture of Zaid and wrote a romantic message for her husband.
She wrote: "Hey good looking".
Gauahar married Zaid in 2020. The couple has two sons Zehaan, born in 2023, and a second son named Farwaan, born in 2025.
The actress started dating Kushal after meeting as contestants on Bigg Boss 7 in 2013. They broke up in 2014.
Zaid and Kushal are seen as contestants in "Alliance," which started streaming from June 26. It is hosted by Kunal Kemmu.
Alliance is the first international adaptation of Talpa Studios' globally acclaimed Dutch format, created by John de Mol. The Hindi-language show is produced by Banijay Asia.
The reality format will see 16 contestants enter as allies, but shifting loyalties, deception, and strategic gameplay will test every alliance in the race for the ultimate prize.

I love how Gauahar isn't fazed by all this nonsense. She's built a beautiful family with Zaid - two kids already! - and she's not letting some reality show banter ruin that. The "killer performance with zero insecurities" line was spot on. Some people really need to learn from her.
Wait, so Zaid just laughed when Kushal made that joke? That's actually cool - shows he doesn't feel threatened. And Gauahar standing up for him is sweet. But honestly, why do people even care about this? Let them live their lives! 😂
I get that Gauahar wants to defend her husband, but she could have just ignored the whole thing. Making a big post about it kind of gives it more attention, no? Still, she seems happy and that's what matters. Best wishes to the family!
Can we just appreciate that Gauahar and Zaid have TWO sons already? She became a mom in 2023 and again in 2025 - that's amazing! This whole reality show drama is just noise. Focus on the beautiful family she's built. Also, "Hey good looking" - that's so cute! 💕
As someone who watched Bigg Boss 7, I remember Gauahar and Kushal's relationship. It's actually refreshing to see them both be mature about it now. Kushal made a harmless joke, Zaid laughed, and Gauahar is secure. This is how adults should handle exes! No bitterness, just growth.
