Gauahar shares photo with ex Kushal Tandon

Gauahar Khan shared photos from The Alliance wrap-up party. While she congratulated Mini Mathur for winning the show, one particular photo won hearts online. Gauahar shared pictures with Mini and Zaid, but the last photo she posted featured Zaid, Mini, herself, and her ex-boyfriend Kushal Tandon together in the same frame.
Fans were quick to react to the photo, delighted to see Gauahar and Kushal together in one frame after years. One comment read, "Such a wonderful frame! Friendship takes over everything else❤️🔥." Another comment read, "Please Gauahar… Never come in between this bromance 😂❤️ they are the cutest ." One more comment read, "One of the best things about the show was the unbelievable bond between Zaid and Kushal🫂❤️ May God always keep them away from negativity and protect their beautiful bond from all the negativity around them ."
When Kushal's comment led Zaid to apologise to Gauahar
Kushal had made a sarcastic comment on the show that referenced Gauahar. While working out at the gym with Zaid, Zaid recalled how he once asked Kushal for a cigarette because the ones he had were "bekar" (bad). Kushal jokingly responded, “Tujhe saare meri cheezin pasand aati hai” (You always like my things).”

And I hope you understand what I am. You know me. You know what kind of a person I am. I can't hurt anyone. I can hurt myself, but I can't hurt anyone around me. That's the truth.”
