Taking to Twitter, Gauhar shared the report and wrote, “Oh my god!

“…on Farhan, our star host, and how happy I am about them getting married and being together. Talking shit even in a good and joyful moment, disgusting, appalling, and plain wrong. Sick. Please let them have their joy. Won’t explain more on how this sick minds work. Sick,” she added in another tweet.

She also wrote in a separate tweet, “Be ashamed!!! Absolutely ashamed that In a time when the world is at war, ppl are dying, people have no livelihood, there’s bloodshed and hatred being spread, some parts of the media just can’t stop lying through what they call news. Get a damn life.”

Recently, in an interview with Hindustan Times, Gauahar had said, “I don’t know if their love story started then because I wouldn’t have any idea. But we were all crushing on Farhan at that time. We were all smitten by him, including Shibani and I. I remember we used to talk about how good-looking he was or how amazing a person he was.”

Shibani and Farhan tied the knot in Mumbai. Speaking about the newlyweds, Gauahar had said, “When I got to know about them being together, a couple of years later, I was very happy. They look good together. I think if you are meant to be together, you vibe, and I guess they vibed to a level where today, they are married! They look amazing and happy together.”
