Many users began speculating about the possible reasons for the termination of the Bigg Boss 19 winner's account by sharing their views in the comments.

Youtube terminated his account (sic)." Another user noted, "It happens when there is an instant increase in the number of subscribers. Its quite common, happens to most of the celebrities. His team can get it back (sic)."
In his first YouTube video, Gaurav opened up about his journey and the months he spent inside the Bigg Boss 19 house.

The actor gave a special shoutout to his Bigg Boss 19 friends and co-contestants, stand-up comedian Pranit More and influencer Mridul Tiwari. "The people who didn't like or love me on the show, I will try to do better in the next show. My two younger brothers - Pranit and Mridul, sat me down and said that I should come on social media, it is very important. I have no idea about this world. This is for the both of you, I made a promise. You both are my seniors in this area, I apologise if I make any mistakes. I don't even know how to go live. This is me trying something new," he said in the video.
