Akshaye Khanna is undoubtedly the man of the moment as the internet cannot stop gushing over him, ever since the release of ‘Dhurandhar’. The actor was seen in a starkly different role in ‘Chhaava’ earlier this year. As netizens continue to talk about him, there’s curiosity surrounding his personal life. The actor isn’t married and a video of him talking about being really happy alone and single is viral online. However, Akshaye was one rumoured to almost marry Karisma Kapoor. Karisma and Akshaye grew close after doing a photoshoot together in the 1990s, which soon led to a relationship. At the time, reports suggested that Karisma had recently ended her relationship with Ajay Devgn and found comfort in Akshaye. Her father, Randhir Kapoor, was happy with the match and even sent a marriage proposal to Akshaye’s father, Vinod Khanna. The wedding talks had progressed well, but Karisma’s mother, Babita Kapoor, stepped in and stopped it as per reports. Karisma was at the peak of her career and stardom then, and Babita wanted her to focus on work. She was also reportedly unsure about Akshaye’s career at that point. As a result, the marriage did not happen.Later, Karisma got engaged to Abhishek Bachchan and the announcement was made publicly by Jaya Bachchan, but that relationship also ended. Eventually, Karisma married businessman Sanjay Kapur in 2003. The couple had two children before they separated, and their divorce was finalised in 2016. Sunjay Kapur passed away this year in June due to reportedly swallowing a bee which led to a heart-attack.
