Mumbai, June 15 (NationPress) Another well-known couple from the television industry, Kushal Tandon and Shivangi Joshi, have ended their relationship. Kushal confirmed their breakup with the 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai' star by sharing a message on his Instagram stories, stating, "To all the people I love, just wanted to say, me and Shivangi (Joshi) are not together anymore. It’s been 5 months so yes.” (sic)
Interestingly, the 'Bigg Boss 7' participant later removed the post.
While some netizens criticized Kushal for his timing, with comments like "JUST A DAY BEFORE THE PREMIERE OF HER NEW SHOW… YOU DECIDED TO DECLARE YOUR BREAKUP… SHAME ON YOU, MAN. HOW INSENSITIVE OF YOU… ALL FOR LIMELIGHT?" and “Was he drunk yesterday night? #KushalTandon #ShivangiJoshi #Kushiv,” others supported him. They remarked, "The hate he's receiving just for speaking up before her show is unjust. We don’t know what truly transpired or what motivated him to take such a significant step. He didn’t disrespect her, yet people keep making assumptions. Just stop."
Furthermore, Kushal and Shivangi have also unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Reports indicate that the two stars developed feelings for one another while filming their show 'Barsatein — Mausam Pyaar Ka'. Their relationship blossomed since then, and they even enjoyed a trip to Thailand together.
In October 2024, Kushal publicly confirmed his relationship with Shivangi, revealing his parents' desire for him to marry. He was quoted saying, "Vaise dekha jaye toh kuch bhi ho sakta hai, kabhi bhi. But the best part is that the search for a suitable girl for me by my parents has stopped now."
Moreover, in March, Shivangi expressed her feelings with a touching birthday message for Kushal, wishing him, "May this year bring you happiness, success, and everything your heart desires. Hope it’s filled with exciting opportunities, growth, and beautiful moments that make you truly smile...Wishing you everything good in life...Lots of love (sic)."
