Once again, Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor’s personal life has come under the spotlight following startling statements made by film director Sunil Darshan after the sudden death of her former husband, Sanjay Kapoor.
In an interview, Sunil—who has worked with Karisma on several films—claimed that the actress struggled with her identity after marriage. He stated that Karisma wanted a simple, loving home life but ended up living the role of a “trophy wife,” which never suited her.
According to Darshan, the marriage was unexpected and based more on family ties than compatibility. Sanjay Kapoor’s sister was Karisma’s childhood friend, but after the marriage, Karisma found it difficult to adjust to Delhi’s elite and traditional lifestyle.
The couple, who married in 2003 and officially divorced in 2016, have a son and a daughter. At the time of separation, serious allegations surfaced against Sanjay, including forcing Karisma into uncomfortable situations with his friends and subjecting her to physical abuse.
Despite their troubled past, Sunil revealed that the two managed to maintain a respectful co-parenting relationship post-divorce. Sanjay remarried, while Karisma continues to live as a devoted single mother.
Following Sanjay Kapoor’s unexpected death, Karisma attended the funeral and prayer ceremony with their children, reflecting the emotional maturity and mutual respect they eventually developed for the sake of their family.Ask ChatGPT
