Hunar Hale drops husband Mayank's surname 'Gandhi' amid reports of divorce

For years, Hunar Hale and Mayank Gandhi were seen as a couple that valued privacy over publicity. Both actors carved their own space in the television industry, with Hunar being known for her roles in shows like Patiala Babes, Ek Boond Ishq, and Chhal Sheh Aur Maat, while Mayank gained recognition through reality television and drama series. Unlike many celebrity couples, they chose to keep their personal life away from the spotlight, rarely sharing details online or engaging in social media performances of their relationship.

For years, Hunar Hale and Mayank Gandhi were seen as a couple that valued privacy over publicity. Both actors carved their own space in the television industry, with Hunar being known for her roles in shows like Patiala Babes, Ek Boond Ishq, and Chhal Sheh Aur Maat, while Mayank gained recognition through reality television and drama series. Unlike many celebrity couples, they chose to keep their personal life away from the spotlight, rarely sharing details online or engaging in social media performances of their relationship.

Their marriage, which reportedly lasted close to nine years, was marked by what Hunar once described as a “living apart together” model. She lived in Mumbai. Hunar had spoken about how this arrangement worked for them, allowing both to grow individually without becoming complacent in their relationship. At one point, she had expressed a desire for her marriage to remain rooted in respect rather than routine.

However, recent developments suggest that things may have changed. India Forums had earlier exclusively reported about the couple now headingfor divorce. While no official statement has been released by either Hunar or Mayank, sources claim that the process of separation has already begun and they have been living apart for some time.

Adding to the speculation, we have also noticed that Hunar has recently dropped the surname “Gandhi” from her social media handles. Though she has not addressed this publicly, the change has fueled conversations around the possible end of their marriage. A cryptic post from her Instagram story, where she wrote “Strong looks better on me,” has only added to the speculation, with many interpreting it as a sign of emotional transition.

Despite the silence from both sides, the subtle signs are pointing to a quiet but clear conclusion to a nearly decade-long relationship. If true, it appears the two have chosen dignity and privacy as the foundation of their parting—just as they did during their time together.
