"Tough times don't last": Kareena Kapoor pens uplifting birthday note for sister Karisma Kapoor

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], June 25 (ANI): Actor Karisma Kapoor is currently reeling from the sudden death of her ex-husband and industrialist Sunjay Kapur. The businessman died after he suffered a heart attack while playing polo in London, United Kingdom on June 12, and since then Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan have been making sure to be with Karisma and her children Samaira and Kiaan. As it's Karisma's birthday on Wednesday, Kareena penned an uplifting note for 'Lolo', giving her strength. 'This is my most favourite picture of you both. To the strongest and the bestest girl in the universe... It's been a tough year for us ...but you know what ...as they say tough times don't last ...the toughest sisters my Sister ,my mother ,my best friend ...Happy birthday My Lolo @therealkarismakapoor,' she captioned the post. Along with the heartfelt note, Kareena shared a candid picture of her husband, Saif Ali Khan and Karisma. Kapur's final rites were performed at the Lodhi Road Cremation Ground in the south Delhi on June 19, with family and close associates present. A few days ago, sister of Sunjay Kapur, Mandhira Kapur penned an emotional tribute. Mandhira, in an Instagram post, shared a series of childhood pictures along with a note in which she opened up about how she and her brother had not spoken for the past four years and that a 'silly sibling squabble' kept them apart emotionally. 'My brother and I may not have spoken for the last 4 years; a silly sibling squabble escalated to crazy levels due to egos and natural bullishness. However, that will never take away what we were and what we had,' read a part of her post. 'He always looked after me and my sister, a true big brother and a friend. What happened towards the end has been both horrible and pointless. I will never have my moments with him again. We will never be 'us,' and it is devastating that we didn't fix what had become broken. And so now, my heart is the same. I am sure he knew, despite our recent estrangement, that I loved him. In my soul, I am sure he shared the same hope as I--that one day we would be as amazing as we were for the first 47 years. Of this, I am sure, and take some small comfort,' she said. Sunjay Kapur was the chairman of Sona Comstar. He married Karisma Kapoor in 2003. The couple became parents to daughter Samaira in 2005 and son Kiaan in 2011. In 2014, Karisma and Sunjay filed for divorce through mutual consent. Their divorce was finalised in 2016. After the separation, Sunjay married Priya Sachdev. The couple welcomed a son, Azarias, after their marriage. (ANI)

Shweta Bachchan's Mother-In-Law Helped Karisma Kapoor Get Over Abhishek Bachchan Breakup

Shweta Bachchan is married to Karisma Kapoor's cousin, and is thus related to the Kapoors. Karisma Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan were all set to tie the knot after dating for 5 years. However, their engagement ended soon after Jaya Bachchan publicly announced it. While the real reason behind the breakup is best known to the Kapoors and the Bachchans, Karisma once opened up about the 'trauma" she experienced from the split. Karisma Kapoor told Subhash K Jha in an old interview that the breakup was a traumatic event in her life. She added, 'I want to thank the media for being so understanding and supportive. Everyone left me alone. I don't want to say anything more on this except that I couldn't have come out my trauma if it wasn't for my parents [Babita and Randhir Kapoor], sister [Kareena], my Dadiji [Krishna Raj Kapoor], my two Buas [Rima Jain and Ritu Nanda] and my close friends." Interestingly, Karisma's aunt, Ritu Nanda, has a familial relationship with the Bachchans. Ritu's son, Nikhil Nanda, is married to Shweta Bachchan. Shweta is Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan's daughter. As such, the Kapoors and the Bachchans are related. Shweta and her kids, Navya Naveli Nanda and Agastya Nanda, are often spotted at the Kapoors' family events. But, how are relations between Shweta and Karisma, given the history with Abhishek? As per reports, Shweta Bachchan is fond of Karisma Kapoor and helped break the ice between her and the Bachchans years after their breakup. In 2018, Shweta Bachchan launched her clothing line with a star-studded party. Karisma Kapoor also made an appearance at the event. Reports claim that Shweta and Karisma seemed to get along well. A source told Deccan Chronicle, 'There was a sincere affection between them. For years, no member of the Bachchan family spoke to Karisma. Now, Shweta has broken the ice, and rightly so. You can't hold grudges forever." Meanwhile, before this, in 2003, Karisma married Delhi-based industrialist Sunjay Kapur. They had two kids together. But their union quickly unravelled, eventually leading to a highly public and bitter divorce battle in 2014. While the couple initially filed for divorce through mutual consent, the case escalated into an ugly legal fight filled with serious allegations. Meanwhile, Abhishek Bachchan tied the knot with Aishwarya Rai in 2007. They welcomed their daughter, Aaradhya Bachchan, in 2011. First Published:

When Karisma Kapoor spoke about her broken engagement with Abhishek Bachchan for the first time: 'I was emotionally unprepared... Everyone left me alone'

Karisma Kapoor spoke about her broken engagement with Abhishek Bachchan. She described it as a traumatic experience. Karisma shared how she healed with time and family support. She thanked the media for their sensitivity. Amitabh Bachchan also addressed the situation on 'Koffee With Karan'. He said it was better to part ways when things weren't right. In the glitzy world of Bollywood, where love stories often unfold on screen with perfect endings, real life can be far more unpredictable. Karisma Kapoor , one of the biggest stars of the '90s, once seemed set for her own happily-ever-after when she got engaged to Abhishek Bachchan in 2002. But the engagement was unexpectedly called off, leaving fans shocked. Years later, Karisma opened up about that painful chapter in a rare interview—revealing a side of her that was vulnerable, introspective, and quietly resilient. In a candid throwback interview with journalist Subhash K Jha, Karisma Kapoor opened up about the emotional turmoil she experienced after her broken engagement with Abhishek Bachchan. Calling it a deeply traumatic time, Karisma shared that she had to face the pain alone and hoped no other girl would have to endure a similar experience. She reflected on how she gradually healed with time, saying she eventually made peace with the situation. Acknowledging that life doesn't always go as planned, Karisma said she was emotionally unprepared then but had learned to accept her journey—one dealt by fate's own hand. The actress also expressed heartfelt gratitude to the media for their sensitivity during one of the toughest phases of her life. She acknowledged that while many distanced themselves from her at the time, it was the unwavering support of her close family that helped her heal. She credited her parents, Babita and Randhir Kapoor , sister Kareena, her grandmother Krishna Raj Kapoor , aunts Rima Jain and Ritu Nanda, and a few close friends for helping her find strength and emerge from the emotional turmoil. It's important to note that neither Karisma Kapoor nor Abhishek Bachchan ever publicly disclosed the reason behind their broken engagement. However, Amitabh Bachchan addressed the situation during an episode of Koffee With Karan Season 1. He acknowledged that it was a delicate time for both families, as a relationship had been formed and then ended. While expressing empathy, he added that when circumstances aren't right for a union, it's better for those involved to part ways—something that ultimately happened in this case.
