After a three-month-long journey, Karan Veer Mehra emerged as the winner of Salman Khan’s controversial reality show, Bigg Boss 18. During his time in the house, his failed marriages became a recurring topic of discussion among the contestants. Karan was previously married to Devika Mehra from 2009 to 2018 and later to Nidhi Seth from 2021 to 2023. Recently, he appeared on Elvish Yadav’s podcast, where he candidly discussed his past relationships and publicly apologized to his ex-wives.
In the podcast, Elvish Yadav, the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2, asked Karan about his divorces in a lighthearted manner, saying, “Log kehte hain ki aap bahut khaate ho, toh yahi reason hai kya aapke divorce ka? Biwiyaan khana banake tang ho gayi ki yeh kitna khaata hai (People think you eat a lot; is that why you got divorced? Did your wives get tired of cooking for you?)” Karan humorously responded, “Wahan bhi main hi bana raha tha. Aur bana ke bhi bana hi jaate hain log mere ko (Even there, I was the one doing the cooking. Yet, despite that, people left me).”
Elvish later asked Karan which of his ex-wives caused him the most pain. In a moment of self-reflection, Karan admitted that he was the one who had caused difficulties in his marriages. Playfully apologizing, he said, “Main maafi maang raha hun galti ho gayi mujh se. Lekin ab dono khush hain toh I hope main bhi khush rahu. Baaki ‘Chum’ jo tum chaho woh hoga hi (I’m sorry; I made mistakes. But now that they’re both happy, I hope I can be happy too. As for the rest, ‘Chum,’ whatever you want will happen).”
Karan also revealed that if either of his ex-wives had entered the Bigg Boss house, he would have chosen to leave the show. He praised both of them, describing his ex-wives as “dabangi” and “kamaal,” acknowledging their strength and remarkable qualities.
