When Gauahar opened up about the age gap between her and Zaid

From the time Gauahar Khan and Zaid Darbar officialised their relationship, speculations were rife about the huge age gap between them. While speaking to ET Times, the actor had opened up about the same and shared that while Zaid is younger to her, it's only a few years. She also added that Zaid was way more mature to her and has brought a sense of balance to her life.

"Let me clear this, the age difference that has come out is wrong. 12 years is wrong and it is very easy for people to make it news. But it is wrong. Yes, he is a few years younger than me but 12 is not the number. He is way more mature than I am and he has brought a sense of balance to my life. Judging and passing comments that the age gap can act as a barrier in a relationship is very easy, but Zaid and I have a similar kind of understanding and maturity. So, age never matters or hinders our relationship," she was quoted by the website.
