Marriages
are made in heaven; they say. When two people fail to make it to marriage, it
is said that they were simply not meant to be together. Blame it on mishandling
of a relationship or hapless fate; it is never easy to deal with an engagement
breakup. It hurts especially because two people are just a step away from
taking their relationship to the ultimate level. Numerous celebrities in
Bollywood got engaged but did not make it to marriage. We take a look at some
of them.
Salman Khan
Salman Khan had almost got hitched to
Sangeeta Bijlani but the wedding was called off at the last minute. It is said
that Sangeeta had “caught” Salman cheating on her. During one of his
appearances on Koffee With Karan;
the superstar had revealed that even wedding cards had been printed.
Akshay Kumar
For a long time; Akshay Kumar kept mum
about his breakup rumors with Raveena Tandon. However; years later; the actor
revealed that his engagement with the actress was called off. He had also
clarified that he was not married to Raveena and that only engagement had
broken.
Abhishek Bachchan
Abhishek Bachchan and Karisma Kapoor dated
each other for quite some time before they got engaged in 2002. The occasion
was all the more special as the two exchanged rings on Abhishek’s father
Amitabh Bachchan’s 60th birthday.
However, the engagement was called off in February 2003. Many reports claimed
that it was Karisma’s mother Babita who was behind the breakup. There were also
rumours that Karisma was not happy with the Bachchan family as they allegedly
didn’t want her to work in films post marriage.
Sajid Khan
Sajid Khan got reportedly engaged to
Gauahar Khan in the year 2003. Since neither of them were popular names then;
their breakup didn’t make headlines.
Vivek Oberoi
Much before he began his journey in
showbiz, Vivek Oberoi got engaged to model Gurpreet Gill. However; Vivek’s
hectic schedule created differences between the two and the engagement was
called off. In an interview with Times of India; Gurpreet had opened up about
the breakup and said; ‘I never thought things would go this way. We broke up
because I wasn't willing to compromise on basic moral values. The truth is that
I asked Vivek to change, or go.’
Karan Singh Grover
Whenever there is talk about Karan Singh
Grover’s exes; the names that come to one’s mind are Shraddha Nigam; Nicole
Alvares and Jennifer Winget. But much before he got involved with these women,
he was in a relationship with TV actress Barkha Bisht. It is said that the two
got engaged in 2004 but parted ways two years later.
