From Childhood Bond to Private Vows: Karisma Kapoor on Wedding with Sunjay Kapur
A recently resurfaced interview with Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor offers a rare peek into the personal origins of her relationship with businessman Sunjay Kapur. Long before their romance blossomed, their lives were intertwined through longstanding family ties.
Karisma recounts that the connection between their families dates back decades. Her mother, Babita, was friends with Sunjay’s mother from their youth, and this bond brought the two children together. She explains, “All of us kids from both homes grew up together,” emphasizing how their early friendship laid the foundation for what was to come. Over time, childhood affection gently morphed into something deeper.
When their love led to marriage, the couple chose to keep the news private. Karisma shares that both she and Sunjay believed in destiny and wanted to be sure about their decision before making it public. She reflects thoughtfully, “Whatever is destined to happen will happen,” illustrating a quiet confidence in their relationship’s course.
Their wedding, held away from the public eye, symbolized this preference for privacy. Karisma admits she “had to keep it under wraps until all of us were sure of what we wanted to do.” Only when both families—and they themselves—felt certain did they share their joyous news.
This candid insight now carries special poignancy, coming after Sunjay Kapur’s sudden passing in June 2025. His unexpected death has triggered a high-profile inheritance dispute—and the intimate memories Karisma shared provide a touching contrast to the unfolding legal drama.
Her reflections stand as a heartfelt reminder of how love can grow slowly out of familiarity—and how significant moments need not be broadcast widely to be deeply meaningful.
