Kritika Kamra on Falling in Love with Gaurav Kapur
Reflecting on the early days of their relationship, Kamra dismissed the idea that their love was a "whirlwind" romance. Instead, she characterised it as a "slow-burn" connection that prioritised friendship over initial attraction.
“We’ve never discussed who fell first. It kind of grew naturally,” Kamra shared. “It started with a great friendship and instant chemistry, but the realization that this is someone I want to be with for life took time.”
The actor noted that this realisation eventually happened "simultaneously" for both of them as the relationship matured. She also emphasised that while attraction is a starting point, alignment is important for a relationship to sustain. "Your heart and your head need to be aligned it’s not just fun and games," she added.
A Departure from Celebrity Wedding Trends
In an industry known for lavish destination weddings and grand aesthetics, Kamra and Kapur chose a more personal approach. The actor explained that they were certain about staying in Mumbai, a city that holds significant meaning for both of them.
“We were very sure that we didn’t want a destination wedding,” Kamra said, explaining that the ceremony was held at home with only their closest circle present. While a larger party followed for friends, the core ceremony remained private.
Kamra further noted that her professional life provides enough glamour, making a high-production wedding feel unnecessary. “We attend big events, wear designer clothes, walk red carpets. So we didn't feel the need to make our wedding about that. It wasn't for the aesthetic—it just wasn't a priority.”
Redefining Cliches of Love
Kamra admitted that her perspective on relationships has evolved significantly over the years. She told the publication that she now finds truth in many common clichés about love that she might have previously overlooked.
“A lot has changed. This is true for everything, emotions and life keep evolving,” she stated. “About love, I’ve recently realised that a lot of clichés are actually true.” ‘Matka King’ Season 1 Review: Vijay Varma, Kritika Kamra Shine in Gritty 1960s Gambling Drama.
