Love stories in Bollywood often come wrapped in glamour, but some of the most beautiful ones are born in the simplest moments and Kriti Kharbanda’s story about Pulkit Samrat is one of them. During a recent candid conversation with Karan Johar, Kriti opened up about a deeply personal memory that sealed her decision to marry Pulkit, a moment that had nothing to do with fame, success or luxury.

Recalling a late-night drive through Bandra, Kriti shared how the two were still keeping their relationship private at the time. As they drove quietly through the city, a Lamborghini passed them by. Almost instinctively, she turned to Pulkit and asked him what he would do if he ever had andha paisa (unlimited wealth). Without missing a beat, Pulkit responded while still focused on the road. His answer wasn’t about cars, homes or indulgence.

“He said he would build a Gurudwara and make sure it serves food 24×7,” Kriti revealed. That was the moment everything changed for her. Kriti shared that it was then she knew without doubt that this was the man she wanted to spend her life with. “In that moment, pyaar happened all over again,” she said, smiling.

Fondly adding that she calls Pulkit Annapurna at home, Kriti explained that his instinctive generosity and desire to give back to the community is what truly defines him. It wasn’t the ambition, the success, or the lifestyle, it was the heart behind his words.

The revelation struck a chord with audiences online, offering a rare, authentic glimpse into their relationship, one built on shared values, empathy and quiet moments rather than grand gestures. In an industry often associated with excess, Kriti and Pulkit’s love story stands out for its simplicity proving that sometimes, it’s a single sentence on a late-night drive that changes everything.
