Mujhe gussa bohot aata hai I am an angry young Punjabi man!“ says Kushal by way of explanation for his break-up announcement, “But mera gussa khatam bhi ho jata hai jaldi. Main dil ka saaf hoon and I am a straightforward guy . And to be frank, people love me for this attitude as they know that I am still a child,“ says Kushal adding, “Gauahar is a very nice girl. I always loved her and I still love her, and she loves me too. All is well between us now. Ek relationship mein ladai hoti hai, gussa aata hai, break-up hota hai and then patch up bhi ho jata hai. Yeh mere aur Gauahar ke beech mein ladai thi.“
But what of his allegations that Gauahar was trying to impose her religious beliefs on him? “That was like what happens between couples in which the girl and boy are from two different religions, waisi humari bhi baat hui. Mujhse galti hui and uss galti ko maine sudhar bhi liya by giving a detailed explanation on Twitter,“ says Kushal.

I have done four reality shows, plus one fiction, and now I am looking forward to my Bollywood dream. My aim is to get the best body and then pursue my Bollywood dream in full force.

So, has Kushal bid goodbye to the small screen? “I am not saying a complete no to fiction on TV . If something is really nice and out of the box, I will definitely think about it. But I now want to produce a TV serial and am working towards that too,“ he says.
