Mumbai, Oct 18 (IANS): TV actor Kushal Tandon, who has always been vocal about his relationship with model-turned-actress Gauahar Khan, has announced a parting of ways.

“There is nothing called gaushal guys m sorry to break the news...Gauahar n I r no more together...love and peace (sic),” Kushal tweeted Friday.

The duo's fans named them Gaushal - a combination of their names. The news of the couple's split surprised their fans, who sought the reason for the split.

"Really don't know what to say bt sometimes things happen for a reason. #Gaushal may not be together bt love them as individuals. #SpreadLove," Kushal further tweeted to explain the reason of the break-up.

Kushal and Gauahar grew close to each other during their stay on reality show “Bigg Boss” last year. Post the reality show, they also participated in an action-adventure show "Khatron Ke Khiladi 5", apart from making a lot of public appearances together.

They also went for a holiday together in Goa.

And more recently, the estranged couple featured in Pakistani singer Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan’s video of track "Zaroori tha". Incidentally, the song was about break up.
