In a recent interview, Boney Kapoor shared a fascinating story from his past when he was dating Sridevi. Back then, Boney was already married to Mona Shourie Kapoor. But guess what? His mom had a hunch about his growing feelings for Sridevi. Moms have that sixth sense, don’t they?
One Raksha Bandhan, Boney’s mom decided to take action. She gave Sridevi a Rakhi, a symbol of protection and love, and asked her to tie it on Boney’s wrist. It was a cute attempt at matchmaking, but Sridevi didn’t quite get it. Boney had to step in and explain.
Even though Boney was head over heels for Sridevi, it took him about five to six years to win her heart completely. He felt a bit guilty about it, especially towards his first wife, Mona. But hey, he was always honest with her about his feelings for Sridevi.
Despite the ups and downs, Boney and Sridevi eventually got married in 1997. They became parents to two lovely daughters, Janhvi and Khushi, adding more joy to their lives.
Boney’s story teaches us that love can be messy sometimes, but honesty and patience can lead to beautiful outcomes in the end.
