Hina Khan, the popular television actress known for her role as Akshara in "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai," recently tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend, Rocky Jaiswal, in June 2025. The couple is now appearing together on the reality show 'Pati Patni Aur Panga', where they are sharing glimpses into their married life. The show, hosted by Sonali Bendre and Munawar Faruqui, features several celebrity couples facing challenges that test their compatibility and communication.
In a recent episode, Hina and Rocky invited their mothers-in-law to share some behind-the-scenes stories. Hina's mother-in-law, Lata Jaiswal, made some candid revelations about Hina's habits, sparking laughter and teasing on the set. The promo of the episode has gone viral on social media, with fans reacting hilariously to the family banter.
Rocky jokingly mentioned that his mother is more scared of Hina than he is. Lata Jaiswal playfully agreed, stating that while she loves Hina dearly, living with her isn't always easy. She pointed out that Hina often critiques her cooking, despite not having much knowledge about spices or spending time in the kitchen. "I cook different types of food throughout the day, and she does not have much knowledge of spices, even the word kitchen is not in her dictionary. Still, she finds mistakes in the food," she said. She added, "She has a lot of tantrums".
Adding to the humor, host Munawar Faruqui quipped, "Matlab aata kuch nahi hai aur nakhre bahut hai" which translates to "Doesn't know anything but has a lot of tantrums". Hina's mother-in-law agreed, saying, "Nakhre? Bahut hai!". Actress Avika Gor playfully teased her by saying, "Saas ho aap saas," to which she responded with a smile, "Haan but isse kaun panga le," meaning "Yes, but who would want to mess with her?".
Hina's mother-in-law also compared her to her character Akshara from "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai". She fondly recalled watching Hina play the ideal daughter-in-law on television and praying to get a similar daughter-in-law. "I did get a daughter-in-law like her, but she isn't as traditionally 'sanskari' as the one she played on TV," she said, clarifying that Hina is not as cultured in real life as she was in her reel life. However, she emphasized that Hina is the soul of their family and they cannot imagine their lives without her.
Despite the teasing, it's clear that Hina shares a comfortable and loving relationship with her in-laws. Hina's reaction to the comments was priceless, as she took it all in good spirits. This glimpse into Hina's personal life showcases a different side of the actress, revealing that she is not afraid to be herself, even if it means being a little "less cultured" than her on-screen persona.
Hina and Rocky's relationship began on the sets of "Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai," where Rocky was a part of the production team. After dating for several years, they made their relationship public in 2017 and finally tied the knot in June 2025. Hina has been open about Rocky's support during her cancer diagnosis and treatment. The couple's journey from reel to real has been an inspiration to many, and their appearance on 'Pati Patni Aur Panga' is giving fans an even closer look at their bond.
