Kushal Tandon confirms dating Shivangi Joshi, talks about marriage plans
After months of speculation, actor Kushal Tandon has finally confirmed his relationship with fellow actor Shivangi Joshi. The couple, who recently shared screen space in the TV show Barsatein-Mausam Pyaar Ka, had been rumored to be dating for some time but never officially acknowledged their relationship until now. In a recent interview with ETimes TV, Tandon (39) openly discussed his love for Joshi (26) and their decision to take things slow.
'My mother wants to see me married'
When asked about his marriage plans, Tandon said, "I am not getting married right now, but I am definitely in love. We are taking it very slow." He also jokingly added that his mother is keen on him settling down and would have him married immediately if it were up to her. Not rushing into marriage, Tandon is relieved his parents' search for a suitable match for him has ended with Joshi.
Earlier, Tandon was in a relationship with Gauahar Khan
Joshi was once linked romantically to Randeep Rai after they collaborated in Balika Vadhu 2, but the actor shut down rumors in 2022, clarifying that they are simply good friends. Meanwhile, Tandon's past relationship with Gauahar Khan remains public knowledge. The couple became a notable pair after entering Bigg Boss 7, where Gauahar went on to win the show. After dating for about a year, they announced their breakup in 2014. Khan is now married to Zaid Darbar.
Meanwhile, Tandon plans to buy a bigger house
In the same interview, Tandon also revealed that his parents have moved from Lucknow to Mumbai. However, he stressed that their roots will always be in Lucknow. Recalling his past, Tandon shared how he spent most of his childhood away from home due to boarding school and higher studies in America. Now, he looks forward to spending more time with his parents and plans on buying a bigger house in Mumbai for them all to live together comfortably.
