Boney Kapoor and Sridevi’s love story is both interesting and controversial. In a recent interview Boney revealed that Sridevi rejected him and didn’t speak to him for 6 months. Shocked by his confession she said, “You are married with 2 kids how can you talk to me like this?” Their journey shows what all they went through before they got married.
Boney was married to Mona Shourie Kapoor with 2 kids and fell in love with Sridevi after seeing her on screen. When he proposed to her, Sridevi distanced herself and avoided him for months. Boney said, “It took me 4,6 years to convince her,” to overcome the initial hurdles.
Boney’s love for Sridevi came with a price as his marital status was under scrutiny. Mona was aware of his feelings but their marriage was suffering and Sridevi was being judged as a “home-wrecker”. But Boney’s honesty and persistence won her over and they got married in 1996.
Boney and Sridevi’s story is about love vs societal expectations. Boney’s transparency with his first wife and kids was an attempt to manage the fallout. Sridevi’s strength helped her to face the societal backlash and that’s what made their unconventional bond stronger.
Despite all the controversies Boney and Sridevi’s love lasted for over 2 decades. Their journey was full of love and strength and ended tragically with Sridevi’s death in 2018. Boney’s words will keep her alive in their story.
