Actor Barkha Bisht recently reminisced about her past relationship with actor Karan Singh Grover, revealing the reasons behind their breakup and how it became her first heartbreak in Mumbai. In a candid interview with Siddharth Kannan, Barkha spoke about the factors that led to the end of their nearly two-year romance, which began after they worked together on the 2004 teen drama Kitni Mast Hai Zindagi.
Attraction Through Kindness
Reflecting on what initially drew her to Karan, Barkha shared that it was his kindness that captured her heart. “Karan was a very kind person, which attracted me to him. He has an inherent kindness, which I got attracted to because people in Mumbai are not always kind. So, whenever I find kindness, I get attracted to it,” she explained. She also mentioned his good looks, highlighting that he had the perfect physique, which only added to his appeal. “He is very good-looking—the six-pack abs, I mean, I was just 23 years old!” she said.
Growing Apart Over Time
Barkha candidly admitted that as they spent more time together, their perspectives on life began to diverge, leading to their breakup. “We dated for two years. Over the years, we grew into different people. It was my first heartbreak in Mumbai,” she shared. According to Barkha, there was no particular incident that caused the breakup, but rather a natural progression where their views on life no longer aligned. “Nothing went wrong; our perspectives and views on life were different. He was also two years younger than me. As we grew older over those two years, that difference became more apparent—that was the problem,” she explained.
Despite the split, Barkha made it clear that there were no hard feelings between them. “I am still very fond of him even today, and I wish him the best wherever he is,” she added.
Karan and Barkha’s Present Lives
Since their breakup, both Karan and Barkha have moved on with their respective lives. Karan Singh Grover is currently married to actress Bipasha Basu, and they share a daughter named Devi, born in 2022. Meanwhile, Barkha was previously married to actor Indraneil Sengupta. Their love story began on the sets of Pyaar Ke Do Naam and after a brief courtship, they married in March 2008. However, the couple separated in 2022 after 14 years of marriage. Barkha and Indraneil share a 13-year-old daughter named Meira. Recently, Barkha revealed that her ex-husband had cheated on her during their marriage.
Barkha’s openness about her past relationships highlights the complexities of love and heartbreak in the public eye, and her reflections on Karan Singh Grover serve as a reminder of how relationships evolve over time.
