Mumbai: Actor Ram Kapoor, who features in ‘Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa’, got candid about his past relationships during a conversation with Shreya Kalra, and admitted that he had ‘countless affairs’ before marrying Gautami Kapoor.
Describing himself as a ‘playboy’, the actor also revealed that close friend and producer Ektaa Kapoor had warned Gautami about his affairs before they tied the knot.
When Shreya asked Ram about his affairs, he replied, “After marriage, not a single one.”
Shreya then clarified that she meant before marriage, to which Ram replied, “I was a playboy. I can’t count my affairs.”
“Jab pata chala sabko ki Gautami aur Ram shaadi kar rahe hain, Ektaa (Kapoor), jo meri dost hai, she called Gaut
ami and said, ‘Tu kar rahi hai? Usne bahut saare affairs kiye hain.’ Ektaa was worried for her. Aur main maanta hoon jo Ektaa ne kiya sahi kiya kyunki main waisa tha. (When everyone found out that Gautami and I were getting married, Ektaa Kapoor, who is a friend of mine, called Gautami and said, ‘Are you really going through with this? He’s had many affairs.’ Ektaa was concerned about her. And I believe what Ektaa did was right because I was like that back then),” Ram said.
Ram and Gautami first crossed paths in 2000 on the sets of the television show ‘Ghar Ek Mandir’, where a close friendship gradually blossomed into love.
At the time, Gautami was navigating a difficult phase following her divorce, and Ram’s unwavering support brought the two closer.
After dating for nearly two years and living together for a while, the couple tied the knot on February 14, 2003.
Today, they are proud parents to a daughter, Sia, and a son, Aks.
