How Maheep-Sanjay Kapoor’s One-Night Stand Plan Turned into an Eternity

What is the story

In a recent interview, Maheep Kapoor, the wife of actor Sanjay Kapoor and Netflix Fabulous lives versus Bollywood wives star, remembered her first meeting with her husband.

She candidly revealed that their first meeting was meant to be a “one-night stand” and that she had no plans to marry him at the time.

The encounter took place at a party where she crashed uninvited and drunk.

Here’s what happened next.

“I met him dead drunk”: Maheep

In his interview with Raunaq Rajani, Maheep recounted his first meeting with Sanjay’s family.

She was “dead drunk” when she met her brothers, actor Anil Kapoor and producer Boney Kapoor, as well as her sister-in-law, the late actor Sridevi.

Despite an unorthodox presentation, the family welcomed her warmly. “They still accepted me and said, ‘Wow, what an incredible future daughter-in-law. They welcomed me with open arms,'” she recalls.

Maheep and Sanjay’s ‘organic’ decision to get married

Maheep also revealed that there was no formal marriage proposal between her and Sanjay. Their decision to marry was “organic” and made without any traditional fanfare.

She recalls: “We didn’t have this whole proposal and everything… He just said to me, ‘Look, we’re going to get married.'”

It was at a nightclub Colaba Taj where they were partying. “So I said, ‘Okay, fine,’ in between my tequila shots,” she added.

Maheep and Sanjay’s life after marriage

Maheep and Sanjay got married in 1997.

The couple has two children together, a daughter Shanaya Kapoor and a son Jahaan Kapoor.

Despite unconventional beginnings, the couple has been married for over 25 years.

Note that Maheep recently appeared in the third season of the hit Netflix series, alongside her friends-co-stars Neelam Kothari, Bhavna Pandey and Seema Kiran Sajdeh. They were joined by newcomers: Riddhima Kapoor Sahni, Shalini Passi and Kalyani Saha Chawla.
