The Bollywood diva worked with several A-listers and delivered numerous hits like Raja Babu, Coolie No.1, Raja Hindustani, Hum Saath Saath Hai, and many others. While not just her professional life, but also her love life remained a topic of intrigue among fans. From Her much talked-about affair with Abhishek Bachchan to her turbulent marriage with Sunjay Kapur, all drew massive public attention. Karisma married Delhi-based businessman Sunjay Kapur in 2003, and parted ways in 2010. They are parents to two kids Samaira and Kiaan. Their separation was a prolonged legal battle, with full of accusations and counter-accusations. After months of messy affair, the two were finally granted divorce in 2016. Who was Karisma Kapoor dating after her separation from Sunjay Kapur? In the middle of the ugly legal war, there were rumours that Karisma Kapoor found comfort in the arms of Mumbai-based businessman Sandeep Toshniwal. Besides that, what caught everyone's eye were pictures of Karisma, sporting a huge diamond ring, sparking rumours that she is secretly engaged. Reports claimed that Karisma and Sandeep grew closer after she filed for divorce in 2014. In fact, at one point, it even came out that the reason behind her split with Sunjay was her growing proximity to Sandeep, becoming the reason why her marriage fell apart. Did Karisma Kapoor move in with Sandeep Toshniwal? According to reports, the two even celebrated Sandeep's 37th birthday together in Bangkok, along with Kareena, and her husband Saif Ali Khan. Moreover, there were rumours doing rounds that Karisma was planning to take a step ahead in their relationship, and might move in his new appartement with her two children. Their appearances together at many Bollywood parties and dinners, led to speculations that things were getting pretty serious. Why Karisma Kapoor chose not to remarry? However, rumours died down when it came out that Karisma wasn't interested in marriage and wanted to focus on raising her children. As per IB Times, her past turbulent marriage with Sunjay Kapur was one of the reasons that why she wasn't ready for long-term commitment. Also, things came out in perspective when Randhir Kapoor openly told that Karisma is in no 'mood to start a family' again. Addressing the rumours, he told a leading daily, 'There's no truth to this. I would want Karisma married again, but she isn't interested. We have spoken about it and she has clearly told me she doesn't want to start a family again. She wants to raise her kids (Samiera and Kiaan) well and that's her only plan right now.'

Sooraj Barjatya cast Sonali Bendre with Salman Khan in Hum Saath Saath Hai on ONE condition: 'If you wear Indian clothes...'
Sonali Bendre recently revealed director cast her with in Hum Saath Saath Hai under one important condition. A Stark Contrast to Dr Preeti In conversation with Bollywood Bubble, Sonali recalled her casting in Sooraj Barjatya's Hum Saath Saath Hain opposite Salman Khan, reflecting on how different she was from the character of Dr. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now Preeti. She shared that off-camera, she had a very distinct personal style — straight hair, flared jeans with thick anklets, crop tops, and a prominent nose ring instead of a stud. This vibrant, edgy version of herself was far from the soft-spoken, traditional character she portrayed on screen. First Meeting with Sooraj Barjatya The actress also shared more about her personal style during the time she was cast in Hum Saath Saath Hain. She often paired Indian jewellery with jeans and was equally comfortable in traditional attire like sarees and salwar kurtas. Recalling her first meeting with director Sooraj Barjatya, she said she wore a white salwar kurta with silver jhumkas and her signature nose ring, even though she knew the role required a modern, college-going look. Despite this, she went ahead dressed in what felt natural to her. She remembered being completely captivated by the storytelling, as Sooraj Barjatya narrated the entire script along with the music, acting out every character with great enthusiasm. She further reflected on how deeply connected she felt to Indian attire, especially while preparing for her role in Hum Saath Saath Hain. As she listened to the narration, she felt that her character, Dr. Preeti, didn't quite fit the western look that was initially envisioned. Coming from a middle-class Maharashtrian background where salwar kurtas and Indian meals were a part of daily life, Sonali questioned why her character—who was still studying and mostly seen at home—would be dressed in western clothes. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now To her, it made more sense for the character to reflect a traditional Indian upbringing, and she believed that portraying Preeti in Indian attire would feel more natural and authentic. The One Condition for the Role Sonali also shared that before finalising her for the role of Dr Preeti in Hum Saath Saath Hain, Sooraj Barjatya had one specific condition. While he had initially envisioned the character in western attire, he eventually agreed to Indian clothing on one condition—that Sonali would keep wearing the nose ring she had on during their meeting. She readily agreed, mentioning that although she usually removed it before shoots, she had kept it on that day and was more than happy to include it as part of the character's look.
