Why Did Karisma Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan Break Up? Amitabh Bachchan Revealed What Went Wrong

Amitabh Bachchan addressed why Karisma Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan call off their wedding, blaming unfavorable circumstances. Before Karisma Kapoor tied the knot with Sunjay Kapur, she was engaged to Abhishek Bachchan. Jaya Bachchan had proudly announced that Karisma was going to be the Bachchan bahu. However, the former couple broke off their engagement a few months after the announcement. In 2005, Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan appeared on the first season of Karan Johar-hosted reality show Koffee With Karan and the veteran actor addressed what went wrong. Amitabh Bachchan said, 'It was a sensitive moment. Relationships are being formed, relationships are being destroyed. It can be distressing for any young man, and obviously distressing for the family. We don't wish that to happen to anyone, but if the circumstances are not conducive for a union, then it's better that you go different ways. That's what happened." He added, 'I think all these episodes in one's life are the episodes that will improve him as a human being, make him a better man, teach him to face the world in a much stronger way. If I may be absolutely, brutally honest, it gives you an opportunity of learning in the profession we are in." 'And the family has always worshipped what my father taught me, many many years ago, 'Mann ka ho toh acha, Mann ka naa ho toh aur zyaada acha, woh fir bhagwaan ke mann ka hota hai aur bhagwaan aapke liye, kabhi bura nahi chahega (If it happens as per yor will, then it's good, if it doesn't happen as per you will, then it's better, because then it's God's will and God will never wish bad for you)", Amitabh concluded. Karisma and Abhishek had reportedly been together for five years, and their engagement was met with celebration across the industry. Karisma herself had spoken warmly about joining the Bachchan family, saying, 'It feels wonderful to be a part of this family." However, the engagement didn't last. Just a few months later, the wedding was called off. While no official statements were released from either side, speculation has long pointed to disagreements behind the scenes. Reports suggest that Karisma's mother, Babita, played a role in ending the engagement. Allegedly, she was not in favour of Karisma marrying an actor whose career hadn't taken off as expected. She reportedly demanded a prenuptial agreement in which a portion of Amitabh Bachchan's wealth would be transferred to Abhishek—a term the Bachchans were not willing to accept. However, all these were just conjectures. In 2003, Karisma married Delhi-based industrialist Sunjay Kapur. But their union quickly unraveled, eventually leading to a highly public and bitter divorce battle in 2014. While the couple initially filed for divorce through mutual consent, the case escalated into an ugly legal fight filled with serious allegations. First Published:

Tired of too many ads? go ad free now , who plays the character of Karpura Devi, exclusively shared with Times Of India TV what went behind preparing for the role. The actress also shared her excitement about working with the same team again after . Anuja on working with the team again Very, very exciting because the last show that I did on TV was with the same production house, and now I'm again coming back on TV with the same production itself. So, it's very exciting. It's a great feeling because I know everybody, I've worked with them, and I know how they mount their historical shows. They are specialised, we can say, in making historicals and everything. So, it's great. It's great to be back. And back with the people that I already worked with. What went behind carving a role like Kapura Devi? So, basically, this part of the culture I was completely unaware of. Culture, history and reading up about it and knowing who was involved in this particular region and how the kings ruled and what the history was that went behind it and all of that. That was very new to me. Also, the language part where we have kept the nuances of a little bit of Marwadi and a combination of Hindi. Of course, it's more of Hindi and very little Marwadi is used. But I think that accent and those nuances matter a lot. So, I had to have an understanding of how those words are spoken, what the accent is and how these things are said. Because in the meantime, I had done lots of different work, where it was modern Hindi, English mix, English as we call it. And now going back to the roots, the pure Hindi-based with little Marwadi was a little tough part for me in the beginning. So, I sat with the creatives, and I read the script. We had episodes in our hands already. So, I sat with them so that they could correct me at that given point in time and tell me how it's pronounced. These kinds of preparations went on into putting something into this character. Keep reading this space for more updates.
