Anshula Kapoor, daughter of producer Boney Kapoor, recently got engaged to Rohan Thakkar in a dreamy proposal at New York's Central Park.

In his heartfelt post, the producer wrote, 'From the very first moment I held you in my arms, I knew my genius bachcha you were destined to grow into the kind, compassionate, and incredible woman you are today â€' your mother Mona's strength, grace, love, live on in you every single day. And of my mother- your grandmother's generosity, warmth, and unwavering spirit are mirrored in the way you love and live (sic).'

'I know both your mother, my mother including your mother's parents, and of course your massi, are showering their blessings wrapped around you like a warm embrace. Seeing you so deeply happy and in love is one of the greatest joys of my life. Your journey is only beginning, and I'll be cheering you on with pride, love, and all my heart â€' every step of the way. Loads of love, blessings & best wishes for a very happy future (sic),' he added.
The couple made a joint announcement, sharing dreamy pictures from their engagement celebrations. Anshula gave fans a glimpse into their love story, revealing that they first connected through an app. What started as a late-night conversation at 1:15 a.m. went on until 6 in the morning, and the rest, as they say, is history. From 2022 to 2025, their journey has been filled with warmth and growth. When Rohan finally popped the question, Anshula said a resounding yes.
The engagement comes just as Anshula wraps up her appearance on Karan Johar's OTT reality show, 'The Traitors'. Ahead of the grand finale on July 3, she was eliminated along with fellow contestants Janvee Gaur, Elnaaz Nourouzi, Sufi Motiwala, and Jannat Zubair.

Upasana Konidela urges women to find a partner who sees them as equal

Entrepreneur Upasana Konidela shared a note on the need for women to seek respect and equality in marriages rather than financial necessity. While acknowledging her privilege, she mentioned that when finding a partner one must look beyond money or wrote about exploring the topic 'Find Your Ram The New India Begins at Home' in a class with a Harvard Professor, Debora Spar on her Instagram post. Her long note highlighted the need for a mindset shift. It read, "Many are financially independent–some even more successful than the men around them. They're raising children on their own terms."advertisementThe post further read, "It's no longer about needing a man–it's about choosing a partner who respects you and sees you as equal. And that's the mindset shift we need more women to embrace–though I know, it's easier said than done." Upasana also stated that, according to the National Crime Records Bureau, marital conflict was the third leading cause of murders in India. She wrote on how women can be the 'fulcrum of change'."Let's encourage women to marry from strength, not fear. No more marrying for money or status – those can be built together with the right partner, if needed. Let's teach our boys early to manage emotions, set boundaries and respect differences. Let's stop forcing women into timelines – and instead give them the tools and freedom to thrive, whatever their choice may be," she went on. Upasana Konidela recently shared her views on healthy marriages. (Credit: Instagram/upasanakaminenikonidela) "Someone who treats you with respect, walks beside you, and celebrates your strength – not someone who expects you to shrink to fit his comfort zone. Wait for your Ram. Or walk your path solo. Both are valid. Both are powerful," Upasana Charan got married to Upasana in a grand ceremony in Hyderabad in 2012 after their engagement in 2011. Their daughter, Klin Kaara, was born in is the daughter of Shobana Kamineni and the granddaughter of Prathap C Reddy, founder and executive chairman of Apollo Charan last featured in Shankar's 'Game Changer' (2025).
