Allegations of infidelity have heightened the turmoil surrounding Bigg Boss 19 contestant Abhishek Bajaj. He cheated on Akanksha Jindal, his ex-wife, with actress Donal Bisht. Donal, who gained notoriety for her brief appearance on Bigg Boss 15, has remained silent, according to Filmibeat.

Although neither Abhishek nor Donal has publicly acknowledged the alleged affair, it has become a hot issue on the controversial charts.

Recently, Akanksha accused Abhishek of being disloyal to her during their marriage. She called him a "liar" and said he was hiding the truth. She posted a video of Abhishek talking about his relationship with Gaurav Khanna on her Instagram story on November 2. Her complaints regarding his actions were emphasised in her post.

"He only pretends to be nice and says exactly what people want to hear," Akanksha stated in an Instagram post. “Our divorce was actually caused by his lifelong concealment of facts. He has harmed other women as well as me. She also charged him with lying on national television about his age and marital status,” she added.

News 18 was informed by an informant that Abhishek dated Donal when he was still wed to Akanksha. "Abhishek and Donal were together for a short period of time," the insider stated. But according to another source, their romance started after Abhishek and Akanksha split up.

Akanksha added that in fifteen years, Abhishek's conduct hasn't altered. She claimed that in the Bigg Boss house, she is reliving Ashnoor Kaur's past. She said, "Clearly, shame isn't in his vocabulary," in her post.

Akanksha clarified that their split took place on August 18, 2023, despite internet users wondering why she brought up these issues now. This ran counter to rumours that they broke up in 2020.

When she chose to respond to trolls who attacked her for exposing him "after six years”. The accusations put Abhishek under close observation both inside and outside the house, even though he is now ousted.
