To be in love is the most beautiful feeling, but when love fades away then it leaves a huge scar. There are times when the broken heart cannot be mended and the scar remains. And something similar happened with Nach Baliye 9 contestants, Faisal Khan and Muskaan Kataria.

Faisal and Muskaan had participated on the dancing reality show, Nach Baliye 9 as baliyes, but after leaving the show, the rumour of a tiff between the two started making the rounds. Later, the actress had confirmed the split. Their love story was short-lived and it came as a huge shock to their fans. While Faisal called, Muskaan 'a huge mistake', Muskaan labelled Faisal as a 'cheater'.
Recently, in an interview with the Bombay Times, Muskaan shared the details of her breakup and said, "Faisal first cheated on me nine months ago, a year after we started dating. She was a friend of his, and I caught him after I saw his chat conversations. He apologised to me profusely and I decided to give our relationship a second chance, as I truly loved him. If I was with him for money or the limelight, there were several opportunities for me to cash in on my relationship with a celebrity, but I didn’t. The decision to make our relationship public was his, and not mine. Probably, he wanted to break away from his image of a child artiste."

The 22-year-old actress revealed how they were cosy on the show but hardly used to spend anytime together. Muskaan stated, "We were cosy on the show, but Faisal hardly spent time with me. He would turn up late for rehearsals, though he packed up by 9 or 10 pm from 'Chandragupta Maurya'. I learnt that he was spending time with his co-actor from the show, after pack-up."
Muskaan also shared how she was asked not to visit Faisal when he was hospitalised. She said, "On day one, I rushed to the hospital along with my mother to see him, but was shocked to see his co-actor accompanying him everywhere. The next day, I was told not to visit, as his father was not comfortable having me around. I was in utter shock as they used to treat me like family. Even the messages sent to him by my parents, enquiring about his health, did not elicit a response. I think he distanced himself from me when he realised that he won’t be able to continue on NB, and I was of no use to him."

Muskaan further shared that Faisal was cheating on her even while they were together on Nach Baliye and shared, "I don’t want to take anyone’s name, but I am sure that he was cheating on me with her even during 'NB'. She was with him throughout at the hospital when I should have been the one by his side. I found it awkward, but decided not to create a scene because of his condition."
While Muskaan didn't take any name, there were speculations that it is Faisal's co-star, Sneha Wagh. When the Bombay Times contacted actress, Sneha, she clearly stated, "There is nothing to say. Can’t I have friends in my life? Faisal is not just a friend, but a family friend today. I don’t know this lady at all. I have been in the industry since years to understand that publicity stunts won’t take us anywhere, but hard work and passion will. I have never shied away from talking about my personal life. I have stood by my friends through thick and thin and that’s how it is with Faisal. What’s the big deal about it? I don’t understand why someone is seeking publicity using my name. Yeh toh begaani shaadi mein Abdullah deewaana wala case ho gaya hai. I have no role in their relationship or split."
