Toh woh mein cheez dekhta nahi hoon jisse mujhe takleef ho. Agar dekhunga toh mujhse bardasht nahi hoga toh main un logo se baat karunga… lekin main uss tarah ki family se hoon (I am from a family which has an old-school thinking in this matter. Gauahar holds a name for our family now but I can’t say that you leave everything. That right Zaid has. So I avoid watching her films because I cannot stand them and if I watch I will confront. I belong from that kind of family).”

Gauahar and Zaid have been married since December 2020. They had their first child, Zehaan, in May 2023. The couple welcomed their second son, Farwaan, on September 1, 2025.
