What Did Priya Sachdev Say About His Marriage With Karisma Kapoor?
Referring to Karisma Kapoor without naming her, Priya Sachdev explained that Sunjay Kapur’s past relationship didn’t work on the conventional lines of a traditional marriage. She accepted the two children from the relationship and stated that they are loved dearly as members of their now combined family.
Priya answered openly regarding how their family unit was formed, even with previous complexities. She remembered how merging families from past marriages was not always smooth, yet it formed a solid foundation of care and understanding.
Sunjay Kapur and Karisma Kapoor married in 2002. Their split, which was completed in 2016, was far from low-key. Their divorce was in the news because of serious allegations from both parties. Karisma accused domestic violence, and Sunjay accused her of marrying him for security.
Karisma’s father, veteran actor Randhir Kapoor, had already criticised the marriage openly. In an interview with a magazine in 2016, he had said that he regretted his daughter’s marriage to Sunjay, referring to him as a third-class man and maintaining that the Kapoor family never had to marry for money, citing their own legacy and self-sustenance.
