In a revelation back in 2022 on the Netflix series Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, Maheep Kapoor discussed her husband, actor Sanjay Kapoor’s infidelity early in their marriage. In a recent interview, Maheep revisited the tough moment when she chose to openly address Sanjay’s affair and shed light on her decision to remain committed to their marriage. She also delved into their parenting dynamic, sharing how Sanjay is a stricter parent, likely influenced by his past experiences, where he dated multiple women.
Addressing her perspective on discussing Sanjay’s affair on the show, Maheep told Zoom, “I feel people just don’t want to step out of the box and look at that person and try to stand in his shoes and understand. Give everybody a break, everyone is not perfect, everyone is going to **** up. It’s fine.”
Maheep’s friend and Chunky Panday’s wife Bhavana Pandey added, “And it’s what she is comfortable with. That’s her choice. Everyone has to do what rocks their boat.” Maheep further emphasised the importance of maintaining a supportive environment for their children. She said, “You can have an opinion about it but don’t be nasty about it. I also have opinions but I am not nasty about it. The kids needs to know you are there, their father is there and that’s it. They need to have that comfort zone and know that this is their safe zone.”
During the interaction, when asked who between her and Sanjay is the stricter parent, Maheep promptly pointed to Sanjay, blaming his extensive dating history. She said, “I think it’s Sanjay who feels that. I think he has dated so many women, so he has realised that all that kameena sh*t that he did… he gets paranoid with his daughter. It’s the truth. He would go mental about Shanaya, my son… he was like fine, he is okay but with Shanaya, I had to tell him to calm down. Then I realised he is thinking what if some boy does what he did. He is stricter one but now he is a little calmer with Shanaya.”
In 2022, Maheep had opened up about Sanjay’s affair on Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives. Speaking to Seema Sajdeh, she had said, “Now you know it Seema. Initially in my marriage, there was an indiscretion that Sanjay had or whatever. I walked out with Shanaya. I stood up for myself but then, I had a newborn baby. Again, as a woman and as a mother, the first priority is my child. I owed my daughter this amazing father, which he is. I owed it to myself. And if I look back and if I broke this s**t up, I would have regretted it all my life. Because when my kids walk into my home, my husband walks into my home, this is their sanctuary. They need to feel peace. And I feel Sanjay gives that to me also.”
Sanjay and Maheep tied the knot in 1997. They welcomed their daughter Shanaya in 1999 and son, Jahaan Kapoor in 2005.
