Kumar Gaurav and Rima Kapoor's unseen picture will take you back in time and remind you of their broken engagement!
Not every love story is meant to be and we have seen ample of such examples in our real lives and in Bollywood too. We all remember Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge where Chaudhary Baldev Singh (Amrish Puri) had decided to get his daughter, Simran (Kajol) get married to Kuljeet (Parmeet Sethi) because he was his childhood friend, Ajit Singh’s (Satish Shah) son. Despite Simran being in love with Raj (Shah Rukh Khan), her father was adamant to get her married to his BFF’s daughter.
Well, something similar had happened in the case of Love Story fame, Kumar Gaurav and Bollywood's 'First Man’, Raj Kapoor’s daughter, Rima Kapoor. Wondering why are we talking about them? Well, we have a picture of Kumar Gaurav with Rima Kapoor and it reminded us of their broken engagement.

Scrolling through our social media handles, often we stumble upon some pictures or videos that take us back in memory lane. This time, we found a picture of Raj Kapoor’s daughter, Rima Kapoor (now Rima Jain) with Kumar Gaurav and we are in awe of it.
In the unseen picture, we can see Rima and Kumar Gaurav posing for the camera all dressed up. While Rima can be seen wearing a pink-hued saree with a neckpiece and a flower in her hair, Kumar Gaurav can be seen wearing a white-self three-piece suit. With the tikka on his forehead and their all decked up look and side hugging pose, it won’t come as a shocker if the picture comes out to be from their engagement ceremony, which was later called off.
Take a look:
Talking about Rima Kapoor and Kumar Gaurav’s engagement, then Raj Kapoor and Kumar Gaurav’s father, Rajendra Kumar belonged to the same era and hence, were close friends. Raj was impressed with Kumar Gaurav and had wanted his daughter, Rima Kapoor (now Rima Jain), to get married to Kumar Gaurav. Kumar and Rima had even gotten engaged but unfortunately, their engagement was later called off. It is said that by the time Kumar’s hit film, Love Story had released, he was already engaged and his link-up stories with his co-star Vijayta had started appearing in the media. As a result, Kumar Gaurav and Rima Kapoor’s engagement was called off.
