'I'm Happily Married': Prince Narula Slams Romantic Edits With Karishma Talwar
Reality star Prince Narula urges fans to stop romantic edits with Karishma Talwar, citing his marriage and daughter.
Reality television sensation Prince Narula has issued a stern yet humble request to his fanbase: stop creating romantic fan edits featuring him and his former co-star Karishma Talwar. The actor and TV star took to social media to draw a clear line between his professional history on dating shows and his current personal life as a husband and father.
A Father's Concern
The controversy ignited after Prince and Karishma reunited on Roadies Rebirth, which prompted fans to dig up archives from their time together on Splitsvilla 8. While Prince expressed that he is fine with fans making edits regarding his overall journey in reality TV, he was adamant about the romantic nature of the videos linking him to Karishma.
Sharing a post on his Instagram Story, Prince highlighted the impact such content could have on his family. He stated that he is a happily married man and specifically mentioned his daughter, noting that he does not want her to grow up and encounter these "meaningless edits."
"Guys it’s a humble request You guys wana make edits about me, it’s cool but please remember that I have a wife and daughter - I’m a happily married man and I don’t want my daughter to grow up and watch these meaningless edits, I’ve had a beautiful journey in the world of reality tv," Prince shared.
Setting the Record Straight on Splitsvilla 8
Beyond the family concerns, Prince also addressed the narrative being pushed in these fan-made videos. He clarified that the relationship he had with Karishma during Splitsvilla 8 was not as deep as some edits suggest. He pointed out that the audience of the show knows she was merely a "connection" within the villa and not an "ex," despite how it is being portrayed in current social media trends.
The Spark That Ignited the Trend
The sudden surge in nostalgia was triggered by a recent episode of Roadies Rebirth during the audition rounds. Host Rannvijay Singha brought up the past connection between Prince and Karishma, which both acknowledged. In a lighthearted moment, Karishma jokingly accused Prince of leaving her because he believed she had "sold" him for Rs 599.
While the interaction was playful and meant for entertainment, it led a section of the audience to revisit their old chemistry, resulting in the romantic montages that Prince is now asking fans to delete.
