IRL- In Real Love follows four youngsters – Rohan Arora, Sakshi Gupta, Chiragg Khatri and Ananya S Rao who have signed up to find true love on the Netflix series. They each have to go on dates with other singles to find out their compatibility and see if they are right for one another. The show premiered on Netflix on April 6. Gauahar and her husband Zaid Darbar announced that they are expecting their first child in December 2022. They have been married since December 2020.
Speaking to Mid-day, Gauahar shared her path to find love with Zaid. She said, “I was always a ‘pyaar ki pujaran, mujhe pyaar chahiye (I have been looking for love everywhere).’ So I was always in search for true love. I had many mistakes and many lessons but no regrets. It was a pure search for my forever. Then I found my love online because nothing seemed to work offline. Zaid (Darbar) happened to slide into my DM’s on Instagram and it was my forever. We were DMing for 20 days and then he proposed marriage.”
