Just when her musical career was reaching newer heights, she tied the knot with choreographer Bobby Khan in 2002, after working on the music video for Pehla Nasha, when she was just 18. However, her family never approved of her marriage and broke all ties with her. Things were going good between her and Khan. But just a year after tying the knot, their marriage went kaput and they opted for a divorce.
Sharing her experience of her first marriage, Sunidhi, once said, “I didn't move away, but the situation made us go away. And no, it doesn't pain.

I am glad whatever happened made me grow in life.”
Her legal separation caused an avalanche of personal problems for her. This is when actor cum music-composer Annu Kapoor, supported and mentored her, and her career started picked up again. She won many awards and made her entry as a judge on a number of popular singing TV reality shows.
