Meet Achnit Kaur, wife of Mohan Kapoor
Back in 2016, rumors broke out that Mohan Kapoor and his wife Achnit Kaur had split after 16 years of being together. Many news outlets reported that they were planning to divorce. Meanwhile, other sources revealed that they were never married in the first place, which is why their marriage ended.
According to Shaadi TimesAchnit and Mohan made a conscious decision to live together. Mohan told the outlet, “Marriage provides a sense of security that living together doesn’t. But since we both have been through failed marriages, we wanted to be sure before deciding again.”
“In a sense, there is not much difference between a live-in relationship and a marriage,” Mohan explains. “In both cases, if you love the other person, you are with them forever. Just because there is no legal contract and it is easy to walk away does not mean the relationship does not exist. Once you live together because of love, it is difficult to give up or leave.”
Meanwhile, Achnit made an interesting observation. She added, “If there is freedom to go out in an apartment, the downside is that it requires a lot more commitment to be able to function.”

The interviewer asked if they ever thought about tying the knot. She replied, “Actually, we never thought about it. We are happy together and people recognize us as a couple. There is no need to get married. One fine morning, we might wake up and say let’s get married.”
Speaking to the website, Achnit also shared an anecdote from her time in Nagaland. She explained, “There is an interesting tradition there, where a couple stays in a specially designated, fully furnished hut for a month with the consent of both parties. During this period, they can decide whether they are meant for each other or not. Whether they agree or not, the decision is respected by their parents and the community. I think it is a very progressive tradition.”
At that time, they had been living together for 9 years.
