Singer Kanika Kapoor rocked Manish Malhotra’s Diwali party last night after announcing her divorce from London-based businessman Gautam Hathiramani. Dressed in a shimmering silver saree, Kanika Kapoor shared a series of pictures on her Instagram story. In the first picture, she is seen striking a perfect pose with Manish Malhotra. Thanking the host, Kanika wrote, “Thank you MM for a wonderful evening.”
In another picture, she is seen making silly faces with Raveena Tandon’s daughter Rasha Thadani and Tamannaah. She also shared a picture with Veer Paharia.
In actress Sayani Gupta’s Carousel post, Kanika poses in a groupie with Akshay Kumar’s son Aarav Kumar, Bhumi Pednekar.
Mumbai witnessed the biggest Diwali night as A-listers like Saif Ali Khan-Kareena Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan-Abhishek Bachchan, Gauri Khan, Shilpa Shetty, Parineeti Chopra, Karisma Kapoor and others arrived in their festive best.
On 3 November, Kanika Kapoor shared on an Instagram story that she had decided to separate from Gautam and end her marriage.
“Dear friends and family, after much thought and consideration, my husband and I are going our separate ways. I am grateful for the time we shared and wish him the best for the future. I ask for kindness and respect for our privacy as we move forward,” she wrote.
Kanika was previously married to businessman Raj Chandok, with whom she has three children – daughters Ayana and Samara, and son Yuvraj.
Kanika married Raj in 1998, when she was just 18 years old. After their marriage, she moved to London, where she lived for several years and raised her children.
They dropped it in 2012. Kanika returned to India to pursue a career in music.
Kanika married Gautham, whom she had known for 15 years, in 2022, in an intimate but elegant ceremony in London.
Kanika Kapoor shot to fame in 2014 with her smash hit song Baby Doll from the Sunny Leone film Ragini MMS 2. Composed by Meet Bros, the song became an instant hit, establishing Kanika as a popular playback singer. Her hitlist includes Happy New Year Lovely starring Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone in the same year.
