When asked if she is currently in a relationship, Barkha denied it. Further, when questioned about dating Ashish Sharma, she said, “Log keh rahe hain, I know. But like I said, bohot special log hain meri life mein. Jaise Karan Veer Mehra. Beech mein logon ne ye bhi kaha ki mera aur Karan Veer ka kuchh chakkar chal raha hai. A lot of people trolled me over it. Especially jab main usko Bigg Boss mein support karne gayi, sabne bola ki issi wajah se iski shaadi tooti hai. Kyunki itna Karan-Karan karti rehti hai.”

(People are saying it, I know. But like I said, there are very special people in my life, like Karan Veer Mehra. At one point, people even claimed that something was going on between Karan Veer and me. A lot of people trolled me for it, especially when I went to support him in Bigg Boss. Everyone said that this was the reason my marriage ended because I kept talking about Karan-Karan.)

She added, "Earlier also, I posted many photos with Karan. Someone wrote, ‘How does her husband allow all this?’ And Ashish is a very dear friend of mine, whom I’ve known for a long time. But we connected at a time when I needed it the most. Log bol rahe hain date kar rahe hain. Maine toh apne relationships kabhi chhupaaye nahi hain. Jab main kisiko seriously date kar rahi hoon, toh I have never hidden it as such.” (People are saying we are dating. I have never hidden my relationships. When I’m seriously dating someone, I have never kept it a secret.)
