Shanaya Kapoor, daughter of actors Sanjay and Maheep Kapoor, has been in the spotlight not only for her upcoming film projects but also for her personal life. Rumours suggest she is dating Karan Kothari, a businessman with roots in Mumbai. The two reportedly met during their university days in Los Angeles, where Karan runs a startup.
Speculation about their relationship intensified when both shared similar underwater photos from a Maldives vacation on their Instagram accounts. Karan later made his profile private, adding fuel to the rumours.

Karan comes from a prominent business family; his father, Avinash Kothari, owns Kothari Fine Jewels. Shanaya has previously modeled for this brand, indicating a close association between the families.

While Shanaya maintains a low profile regarding her personal life, Karan has been spotted accompanying her to various Bollywood events, where she introduces him as her partner.

As Shanaya gears up for her Bollywood debut, fans remain curious about her relationship with Karan, eagerly awaiting any official confirmation from the couple.
Meanwhile, Karan celebrated the release of her film Tu Yaa Main’s teaser by sharing it on Instagram. He expressed his excitement with the caption, “Oh yeah… it’s time,” accompanied by a red heart emoji.
In January 2023, Hindustan Times reported that Karan’s father, Avinash Kothari, owns Kothari Fine Jewels, a brand Shanaya has modeled for in the past.
