Meet Nandita Mahtani: Sunjay Kapur's first wife, Ranbir Kapoor's crush, and Virat Kohli's stylist
Known for his high-profile marriages. While his relationships with actress
Karisma Kapoor
and model Priya Sachdev are well-known, many may not remember that his first wife was fashion designer and socialite Nandita Mahtani.
Nandita Mahtani: Sunjay Kapur's frst wife
In 1996, Sunjay Kapur married Nandita Mahtani, a well-known socialite from Delhi. Nandita comes from a business family. Her brother Bharat Mahtani is a businessman, and his wedding back in 2010 was attended by Bollywood stars like
Abhishek Bachchan
, Aishwarya Rai and
Karan Johar
.
Her sister Anu is married to billionaire Sanjay Hinduja.
Nandita and Sunjay's marriage lasted four years. The couple split in 2000 when their divorce was finalised. This was before Sunjay's much-publicised second marriage to actress Karisma Kapoor.
A known name in fashion
Nandita is more than just a socialite. She is a popular fashion designer in Mumbai and has worked with several celebrities. Since 2012, she has styled many Bollywood stars, but one of her most famous clients is cricketer
Virat Kohli
.
Speaking about him in a 2019 interview with ET Panache, Nandita said, 'Virat has an impeccable style, which stems from his inherent strong personality. He prefers a sporty casual look, but he does enjoy an occasional dress up. His style is mostly refined and minimalistic.' Her stylish and elegant choices have made her a favourite in the fashion world, both in films and sports.
A glimpse into her love life
Apart from her work, Nandita's love life has often been in the spotlight. As per Hindustan Times, in the early 2000s, she was in a relationship with actor
Dino Morea
.
The two also co-founded a fashion brand called Playground together.
Later, Nandita was briefly linked to actor
Ranbir Kapoor
, who is Karisma Kapoor's cousin. In a 2017 interview with The Quint, Ranbir had shared, 'All I can say is that while growing up, I was infatuated with her. I found her beautiful, simple and warm, so unlike the socialite she is made out to be. We went out for dinners, it was nothing serious. Mum knew I had a crush on her.'
In 2017, Nandita got engaged to actor Vidyut Jammwal. The couple made their relationship public on Instagram with dreamy photos from a proposal at the Taj Mahal. But things didn't last, and the two later went their separate ways.
Sunjay Kapur's life after Nandita
After his divorce from Nandita, Sunjay married Karisma Kapoor in 2003. The couple had two children together — a daughter, Samaira, born on 11 March 2005, and a son, Kiaan, born on 12 March 2011. In 2014, they filed for divorce, which was finalised in 2016. Sunjay later married Priya Sachdev in 2017. The couple has a son named Azarias.

Sid at Siddhivinayak to Rajkummar at Golden Temple: Bollywood's new batch of dads go spiritual for their little ones
It was only 2 weeks back that Rajkummar Rao and Patralekhaa announced that they were expecting their first baby. Sidharth Malhotra and his mother at Siddhivinayak Temple; Rajkummar Rao at Golden Temple(Photos: Instagram) Round about the same time, Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani also announced the birth of their first child, a baby girl, on July 16. Settling into their new roles as parents, both Sidharth and Kiara have kept quite a low profile, following from their equally hush-hush pregnancy months, save for a few grand occasions such as the latter's Met Gala debut. Earlier today however, Sidharth stepped out for his first public appearance since the birth of his little girl. With his mother Rimma Malhotra in tow, the actor paid a humble visit to the hallowed Siddhivinayak Temple in Mumbai, presumably bowing his head to pray for the newest mum on the block, wife Kiara, and their little one, whose name is yet to be disclosed. Another heartening public outing reflecting the same sentiment was Rajkummar Rao's quick visit to the Golden Temple in Amritsar. Sharing a series of pictures of him bowing in front of the holy waters, the actor caption his post, "सतनाम वाहेगुरु। वाहे गुरु जी दा खालसा वाहे गुरु जी दी फतेह। ❤️". Rajkummar's presence there, was presumably to seek blessings for his expecting wife and their little who'll soon join them earth side. The actor made his quick trip to Amritsar, shortly after marking his presence for designers Shantnu & Nikhil, who showcased their Fall-Winter 2025 line at the currently ongoing Hyundai India Couture Week, in association with FDCI. As a matter of fact, the show concluded with Rajkummar, and several other front row attendees like Arjun Rampal, Jim Sarbh, Randeep Hooda, Rahul Khanna, Vihaan Samat and Zahaan Kapoor joining the designer duo on stage as the curtains fell on the show. Coming back to their spiritual trysts, we wish the both of them all the very best as they embrace fatherhood.

Jessica Alba seals her relationship with Danny Ramirez with a kiss! See pics
Holllywood actor Jessica Alba appears to have made her new romance with actor Danny Ramirez official, locking lips with the Captain America: Brave New World actor in public. The smooch-filled sighting, on Friday, was captured in photos and video published by TMZ . Jessica Alba and Danny Ramirez have been spotted several times together According to the report, the pair can be seen sharing a passionate kiss outside Danny's Los Angeles home. Dressed in coordinating casualwear — black tops, baggy gray sweatpants, and dark-colored baseball caps — the two looked totally in sync. The moment marks the most public sign yet that Jessica and Danny are more than just friends. Jessica, 44, and Danny, 32, had already fueled dating rumors earlier this month when they were seen returning to Los Angeles from a Cancún getaway, earlier this month. Days later, they were spotted on a cozy dinner date at an Italian restaurant in West Hollywood. In the video, Jessica can also be seen helping Danny with what looks like some home decor — the two walk across the street to his home carrying a giant potted orchid. This new romance comes amid a transitional time for the Sin City star, who earlier this year filed for divorce from Cash Warren after 16 years of marriage. In a heartfelt Instagram post at the time, Jessica shared: 'I've been on a journey of self realization and transformation for years – both as an individual and in partnership with Cash. I'm proud of how we've grown in our marriage over the last 20 years and it's now time for us to embark on a new chapter of growth and evolution as individuals.' She added, 'We are moving forward with love, kindness and respect for each other and will forever be family. Our children remain our highest priority.' The exes share three children: Honor, 17, Haven, 13, and Hayes, 7. From date nights to home visits, Jessica Alba seems ready to embrace her next chapter — and if this kiss is anything to go by, she's doing it with Danny Ramirez by her side.
