, who is married to Naina Bachchan—the niece of Bollywood legend Amitabh Bachchan—recently opened up about his experience being part of the celebrated
Bachchan family. Despite the glamour often associated with the Bachchans, Kunal shared that their home life is surprisingly ordinary.During a conversation with News18, Kunal addressed the public's curiosity about what it’s like living with one of Bollywood’s most recognized families. In his words, “Well, it’s like any other household, honestly. It’s not very different from any other household.” His remarks offered a refreshing perspective on the everyday reality behind the public image of the Bachchans.
Naina Bachchan is the daughter of Ajitabh Bachchan, Amitabh Bachchan’s younger brother, and Ramola Bachchan. Apart from Naina, Ajitabh and Ramola have two more daughters—Nilima and Namrata—and a son named Bhim. The extended Bachchan family also includes Amitabh and Jaya Bachchan’s two children: Abhishek Bachchan and Shweta Bachchan-Nanda.
Kunal and Naina began their journey together after several years of dating. They were married in 2015 in an intimate ceremony held in Seychelles, away from the limelight. On January 31, 2022, the couple welcomed their first child—a baby boy. Sharing the news on Instagram, the couple wrote, "To all our well-wishers, Naina and I are overjoyed to share that we have become proud parents to a beautiful baby boy. We thank God for our abundant blessings."The origins of this bond go even further back. In a 2002 interview with Rediff, Ramola Bachchan shared that her acquaintance with Amitabh Bachchan began long before their respective marriages. Both were part of the same social circle in Kolkata during his pre-acting days. It was through Amitabh that Ramola eventually met and married his younger brother Ajitabh.Kunal often speaks highly of Naina’s personality, describing her as warm and engaging. He’s mentioned how she easily connects with people and loves hearing their stories, a quality he admires both as a partner and an actor. He humorously adds that he tends to observe while she leads conversations during their outings—a habit that serves him well in his craft.Professionally, Kunal Kapoor was last seen in the Netflix thriller Jewel Thief, released on April 25, 2025. In the film, he portrayed an intelligence officer, acting alongside Saif Ali Khan, Jaideep Ahlawat, and Nikita Dutta. While the movie received mixed reviews from critics, Kunal’s performance stood out for its depth and subtlety. Looking ahead, he is preparing for his Telugu cinema debut in Vishwambhara, where he will share the screen with megastar Chiranjeevi.
