Abhishek Kumar & Samarth Jurel unfollow each other on Instagram. Is Isha Malviya’s reunion with Abhishek the reason behind their fallout?
Abhishek Kumar and Samarth Jurel, once friends after their fiery Bigg Boss 17 rivalry, have now unfollowed each other on Instagram. The move has sparked speculation among fans, with many linking it to Abhishek’s recent reunion with ex-girlfriend Isha Malviya for their new music video Ni Tu Baar Baar.
Former flames Abhishek Kumar and Isha Malviya recently reunited for the music video Ni Tu Baar Baar, but their collaboration seems to have stirred up fresh drama elsewhere. Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Samarth Jurel, also linked to Isha in the past, has unfollowed Abhishek on Instagram — and Abhishek has quietly returned the gesture.
The unfollow move has reignited speculation about lingering tensions between the trio, who previously found themselves in one of Bigg Boss 17’s most talked-about love triangles. While Abhishek and Samarth had seemingly buried the hatchet post-show — even sharing screen space on the reality cooking series Laughter Chefs 2 — their friendship now appears to be on shaky ground.
The Bigg Boss Connection
Abhishek and Isha’s relationship began on the sets of Udaariyaan, but ended in a bitter breakup with Isha later alleging physical abuse. She then reportedly began dating Samarth Jurel in 2022, though they kept it under wraps. Their secret romance was exposed when Samarth entered Bigg Boss 17 as a wildcard, leaving Abhishek visibly shaken. The love triangle played out dramatically on national TV, with Samarth and Isha often provoking Abhishek.
One of the show’s most controversial moments came when Samarth taunted Abhishek by placing a tissue in his mouth, leading to Abhishek slapping him in retaliation. The incident got Abhishek briefly evicted before he was brought back by the makers.
Reunion Sparks Rift?
Now, Abhishek’s on-screen reunion with Isha in Ni Tu Baar Baar has fans wondering if it may have rekindled underlying tensions with Samarth. While none of the three have commented publicly, the unfollow move on Instagram has been enough to set off speculation.
Whether it’s just a temporary fallout or a sign of deeper issues, one thing is clear — the Abhishek–Isha–Samarth saga continues to hold the internet’s attention long after Bigg Boss 17.
