Bollywood is a place where relationships, affairs, and extramarital scandals often make headlines. Such news not only grabs attention but also fuels public curiosity. From Aishwarya Rai’s alleged divorce with Abhishek Bachchan to Malaika Arora’s breakup with Arjun Kapoor, numerous stories frequently surface. Today, we shed light on one such story that left audiences intrigued, eager to know what was happening between the two individuals involved. Today, these two actors are among Bollywood’s well-known faces and also the parents of Bollywood’s chocolate boy!
If these clues haven’t given it away yet, let us tell you—we are talking about Pankaj Kapoor and Supriya Pathak. The duo tied the knot after their respective divorces. While Pankaj was previously married to Neelima Azim, Supriya was also married to someone else, but their marriage ended after a couple of years.
Pankaj met his first wife, Neelima Azim, during his early days in the industry. Gradually, they fell in love and decided to get married. Reports suggest that at the time of their marriage, Pankaj was 21 years old, whereas Neelima was just 16. Their marriage lasted for six years, during which they were blessed with a son, Shahid Kapoor. However, differences arose between them, leading to their separation.
Two years later, Pankaj met Supriya Pathak while working on the film Naya Mausam. Their lives took a significant turn as they grew closer and eventually fell in love. During the same period, Supriya was also going through a rough phase, having recently parted ways with her ex-husband after just a few months of marriage.
Their shared experiences of heartbreak brought them closer, and as their bond strengthened, they decided to get married and start a new life together. However, Supriya’s mother, veteran actress Dina Pathak, was initially unhappy with their relationship. She did not trust Pankaj and feared that he might leave Supriya, leading to another failed marriage.
Dina Pathak often advised Supriya to divorce Pankaj Kapoor. However, over time, her perception changed, and she eventually accepted their relationship.
In an interview, Supriya once shared, “I had no problem with the fact that he was already married. I met him with a clean image. He had made it clear from the beginning that his son Shahid matters the most to him.”
After dating for years and embracing each other’s past, Pankaj and Supriya tied the knot in 1988. They gave love and marriage a second chance, building a beautiful life together.
