Karisma Kapoors ex-husband Sunjay Kapur died after he swallowed a bee while playing Polo on June 12. Sunjay and Karisma got married in 2003 and welcomed two children. It is interesting to note that Karisma Kapoors first choice was not businessman Sunjay Kapoor. Randhir Kapoor Karismas father never looked at Sunjay Kapur as his son-in-law. However Karisma Kapoors name was linked with Bollywood actor Abhishek Bachchan. They first met in 1997 during Raj Kapoors grandsons wedding Nikhil Nanda and Big Bs daughter Shweta Bachchans wedding. Lets know why Karisma Kapoor ended up marrying Sunjay Kapur. According to media reports Abhishek and Karisma lived together for five years and the couple almost made their wedding announcement official. Many were hoping that another Kapoor family member was set to become part of the Bachchan family. They even got engaged during Amitabh Bachchans 60th birthday celebrations. But then their relationship broke up. Why did Karisma and Abhisheks engagement break? If media reports are to be believed Karismas mother Babita Kapoor was the reason behind Abhishek Bachchans breakup. After separating from Randhir Kapoor Babita raised her daughters Karisma and Kareena alone. Babita was always protective and practical. She wanted to secure her daughters future and was reportedly worried about Abhisheks financial stability and career at that time. Let us tell you that Karisma had made her mark as a leading actress while Abhishek was still trying to make his place in Bollywood. The Bachchan family was also facing financial challenges due to a struggling production house and increasing debt. Deal between Babita Kapoor and Big B Babita reportedly insisted on a prenuptial agreement requesting Amitabh to give a part of his property to Abhishek to ensure Karismas financial security. However the Bachchan family refused and this reportedly led to the breaking of their engagement. There were also rumours that Karisma was under pressure to give up her acting career and that Jaya Bachchan dominated Abhisheks decisions. However despite years of speculation the real reason behind their break-up remains a mystery. Abhishek Bachchan married Aishwarya Rai Later Abhishek Bachchan fell in love with Aishwarya Rai and the two got married in 2007. However in the last few years there were reports of tension in Aishwarya and Abhisheks marriage. However the couple proved time and again that there is no truth in the rumours.
