Randhir Kapoor's opposition to Karisma's marriage
With industrialist Sunjay Kapur's recent passing, people are revisiting his high-profile marriage to Bollywood star Karisma Kapoor.
The two got married in 2003 after Karisma's brief engagement to Abhishek Bachchan, but her father Randhir Kapoor wasn't on board—he had doubts about Sunjay's character and whether he was the right fit for his daughter.
Marriage and divorce—Karisma and Sunjay's relationship timeline
By 2014, things turned rocky as Karisma and Sunjay filed for divorce, leading to a tough legal battle over their kids and assets.
Eventually, Karisma got custody of their two children while Sunjay received visitation rights.
Their settlement included Sunjay buying ₹14 crore in bonds for the kids (bringing in ₹10 lakh monthly) and transferring a Khar property to Karisma.
Despite all the ups and downs, they managed to stay cordial post-divorce—co-parenting smoothly and even showing up together for family events.
