Karisma Kapoor was born on June 25, 1974, in Mumbai, to actors Randhir Kapoor and Babita Kapoor. She made her acting debut in 1991 at the age of 16 with the romantic drama Prem Qaidi. Upon its release, the film achieved moderate box office success and garnered mixed reviews from critics.
The 1996 blockbuster romance Raja Hindustani represented a pivotal moment in Karishma’s career, earning her acclaim and a Filmfare Award for Best Actress. Karisma Kapoor has been associated with several actors throughout her career in Bollywood, although most of these rumors have turned out to be unfounded.
One of her most discussed relationships was with Ajay Devgn. The conflict between her and Raveena heightened the speculation surrounding them. Subsequently, when Ajay married Kajol, it was reported that Karisma’s relationship with Kajol also became strained.
Look at Karisma Kapoor’s love life, from early Bollywood romances to later relationships and personal reflections:
Ajay Devgn (1992–1995): In the early 1990s, Karisma was romantically associated with her co-star Ajay Devgn from Jigar and Suhaag. She made it clear in a 1993 interview that they were merely “just friends,” requesting the media to refrain from speculating about a romantic involvement.
Abhishek Bachchan (1999–2003): Their acquaintance began in 1997 at Shweta Bachchan’s wedding. They commenced dating around 1999 and became engaged on 11 October 2002; however, the engagement was terminated by February 2003. Reports indicate that familial disapproval—particularly from both mothers—contributed to the dissolution of their relationship.
Marriage to Sunjay Kapur (2003–2016): On 29 September 2003, she married Delhi-based businessman Sunjay Kapur; they had a daughter, Samaira (2005), and a son, Kiaan (2011). The divorce was initiated in 2014 and concluded in 2016, amidst accusations of domestic violence, abuse, and infidelity.
Sunjay Kapur later referred to himself as a “rebound” following the split from Abhishek Bachchan and asserted that Karisma restricted his visitation rights to their children after the divorce.
Karisma is committed to her role as a single mother, nurturing her two children while selectively participating in film and web series projects. Reports indicate that she is satisfied with remaining unmarried currently, concentrating on her children and her career.
