He told Pinkvilla, There will be differences of opinion. I always say it to Rubi (Rubina Dilaik) ki yaar set of belief system jo hai logon ka wo kaha se aata hai? Ek society se aur ek maa-baap se. Religion se bhi aata hai. Ek mera khud ka belief system hai, Maine likh ke rakha hai. And I'm very steadfast with that, usme bada pakka hun. Wahan pe clash ho jata hai mere aur Rubina mein. Main bolta hu aise hona chahiye wo bolti hai aise hona chahiye. Earlier we used to argue and do din baat nahi ki, teen din baat nhi ki. Now I have realized there is always a way around it, yaar!

Bigg Boss and Marriage Troubles

When asked about his participation in Bigg Boss during a difficult time in his marriage, Abhinav provided his perspective. When we said ‘Yes’ to Bigg Boss, we had no clue ki kis disha mein jaa sakta hai. Matlab friction hamare beech hai badh jaygi ya kam hogi, we had no clue. But ek cheez thi that she will have my back, I'll have her back. Jo hua wo swabhavik tha. So maybe we thought it was a test. We survived that.

Abhinav confessed he didn't enjoy Bigg Boss as much, contrasting it with the "super fun" experience of Khatron Ke Khiladi.
