For the uninitiated, Rakhi was earlier married to a guy named Ashraf. Various reports in 2007 suggested that she secretly got hitched to Ashraf in 2004. Their marriage lasted only for 2-3 months as Ashraf was accused of fraud and was later jailed. It was even said Rakhi found out that Ashraf was already married and had a kid.

Rakhi previously dated TV actor Abhishek Awasthi and they even participated together in 'Nach Baliye 3'. After being a relationship for several years, the ex-couple called it quits after an ugly break-up.

She later got engaged to NRI Elesh Parujanwala  on her show 'Rakhi Ka Swayamvar'. They even participated in the reality show 'Pati Patni Aur Woh'. However, their relationship didn't last long and they ended it soon after the show.
