'Everyone left me alone...' Karisma Kapoor was heartbroken after her breakup with Abhishek Bachchan, the person who helped her heal was related to Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bachchan, name was...
Before Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan was engaged to actress Karisma Kapoor. Their engagement was announced in 2002 at Amitabh Bachchan's 60th birthday celebration. The two dated for 5 years, and were all set to tie the knot. Unfortunately things didn't work out, and the two families had to part ways.
Abhishek and Karisma's breakup left fans and film fraternity in shock. The real reason behind their separation has never been known. However, Karisma once spoke about the 'trauma' she underwent following her break up with Junior Bachchan. When Karisma Kapoor opened up about her 'traumatic' breakup with Abhishek Bachchan
She told Subhash K Jha in an old interview that she was heartbroken, and revealed who all supported her during this traumatic phase. 'I want to thank the media for being so understanding and supportive. Everyone left me alone. I don't want to say anything more on this except that I couldn't have come out my trauma if it wasn't for my parents [Babita and Randhir Kapoor], sister [Kareena], my Dadiji [Krishna Raj Kapoor], my two Buas [Rima Jain and Ritu Nanda] and my close friends.' Karisma said.
For the unversed, Ritu Nanda shared a family relation with the Bachchans. His son, Nikhil Nanda, is married to Shweta Bachchan, who is Abhishek Bachchan's sister. Her children, Navya Nanda and Agastya Nanda are often spotted at Kapoor family functions and get-togethers. Shweta Bachchan invited Karisma Kapoor to her party after she broke up with her brother
According to reports, Shweta and Karisma shared a cordial relation despite having Abhishek Bachchan in common. In 2018, when Shweta organised a star-studded party to celebrate the launch of her clothing brand, she also invited Karisma. Reports claim that the two seemed to have shared a comfortable equation.
'There was a sincere affection between them. For years, no member of the Bachchan family spoke to Karisma. Now, Shweta has broken the ice, and rightly so. You can't hold grudges forever.' A source told Deccan Chronicle.
Meanwhile, following her painful breakup with Abhishek, Karisma married Delhi-based industrialist Sunjay Kapur. They have two kids together. Unfortunately, the couple got separated after few years, leading to a ugly divorce battle in 2014.
Abhishek, on the other hand, tied the knot with Aishwarya Rai. They welcomed their daughter Aaradhya Bachchan, in 2011.

A look inside Rs 400 crore luxury apartment in Mumbai's Worli by Swades actor Gayatri Joshi and husband Vikas Oberoi

Many billionaires, businessmen, top executives, and celebrities have invested in Oberoi Realty's premium 360 West project in Mumbai's Worli. The development features ultra-luxurious 4 BHK and 5 BHK apartments, with Shahid Kapoor, Abhishek Bachchan and Akshay Kumar (who recently sold the apartment) investing here. Not many know, however, that Swades actor Gayatri Joshialso calls it home. Her husband, billionaire Vikas Oberoi, is the chairman and managing director of Oberoi Realty. Recently, YouTuber and real estate enthusiast Enes Yilmazer offered an exclusive peek into both towers of the high-end complex. Three Sixty West gets its name from its soaring 360-metre height and west-facing sea views. In his video tour, Enes steps inside the ultra-spacious apartments and showcases several top-tier amenities, including a private theatre, bowling alley, rock-climbing wall, squash, basketball, and cricket courts, a state-of-the-art gym, multiple swimming pools, and other luxurious in-house facilities. Enes Yilmazer called it 'one of the most prestigious buildings in India.' Tower A comprises 27 residential floors, with one apartment per floor, each sprawling over 16,000 sq ft. The base of Tower A houses the Ritz-Carlton hotel. Tower B, on the other hand, is purely residential and features 66 floors. According to the YouTuber, the listing price is a staggering $50 million (approximately Rs 428.96 crore). As per listings on Square Yard, a 4 BHK apartment (5,235 sq ft) is priced at around Rs 45 crore, while a 5 BHK apartment (6,651 sq ft) is listed for Rs 57.17 crore in Tower B. In 2024, actor Shahid Kapoor reportedly bought two sea-facing apartments in the project for around Rs 60 crore. Actor Abhishek Bachchan also owns flats in the same towers. In February 2023, Radhakishan Damani, founder of DMart, and his associates acquired a massive stake worth Rs 1,238 crore in the same development. Last year, Karan Bhagat, founder and CEO of 360 One (formerly IIFL Wealth & Asset Management), purchased two units for over Rs 170 crore. The promoters of Kiran Gems also acquired a 16,000 sq ft sea-facing apartment in the building for approximately Rs 97.4 crore.

Indian game studios level up with local IPs and cultural narratives

As players warm to culturally resonant content, Indian game studios shift focus from outsourcing to homegrown IPs rooted in local themes and traditions Ajinkya Kawale Mumbai Listen to This Article Game studios in India, long relegated to outsourcing and support roles, are now packing a punch with original intellectual properties (IPs) rooted in local themes, as the ecosystem matures. A growing willingness among players to pay for culturally resonant games—coupled with studios' ability to deliver locally relevant content—is pushing companies to place bigger bets on homegrown titles. Take the case of Pune-based SuperGaming's Indus Battle Royale. Since its launch last year, the game has clocked eight million installs with three million monthly active users. The IP is set to go global, with about 15 million pre-listed users outside India alone.
