Boney Kapoor Talks About Sridevi's Religious Beliefs and Marriage Rumors

Boney Kapoor explains the specifics of their union and offers some insight into Sridevi's religious beliefs.

The renowned director Boney Kapoor recently spoke with YouTuber Rohan Dua about his marriage to the great actress Sridevi and addressed persistent myths concerning the birth of their daughter, Janhvi Kapoor. Sridevi and Kapoor wed in Shirdi in 1996, but Sridevi's pregnancy only made their marriage known to the public in January of the following year, according to Kapoor.

Kapoor clarified the situation by stating, "My second marriage, my marriage with Sri (took place in Shirdi)." We were wed on June 2. After exchanging vows and spending a night together, we were forced to be married in front of everyone when it was discovered that she was pregnant in January. It happened on June 2 in Shirdi. This information confirms the chronology and refutes rumors that Janhvi Kapoor was an unwed mother.

In the interview, Kapoor also covered the family's religious convictions, highlighting the fact that he and his relatives, including Sridevi, had strong religious convictions. He related anecdotes of Sridevi's commitment, recalling her frequent trips to Tirupathi and the time she even made the arduous journey barefoot from Juhu to Siddhi Vinayak.

Boney Kapoor also gushed about Sridevi's home in Chennai, which is particularly dear to him. He revealed that the home had undergone major renovations as a result of wetness. Family members, including Anil and Sanjay Kapoor and their parents, once resided in the home. Despite the alterations made during the remodeling, Sridevi's presence can still be felt when Kapoor visits the residence, according to him.

The marriage of Boney Kapoor and Sridevi in 1996 brought them two daughters, Janhvi and Khushi. Boney also had two kids from his first marriage to Sunita Kapoor: Arjun and Anshula.

The conversation gave followers and admirers a better insight of the late Sridevi and Boney Kapoor's personal life and values, providing a window into their worldview. Sridevi's tragic death in February 2018 from an accidental drowning in a bathtub of a hotel in Dubai while attending a family wedding had a profound effect on the Indian film industry.
