Tejasswi Prakash's Mother 'Doesn't Trust Her', Told Karan Kundrra To 'Take Time To Think About Her'

Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash have become one of Indian television’s most followed celebrity couples over the last few years. From meeting on reality television to building a highly publicised relationship, the duo continues to dominate entertainment headlines and social media discussions, especially now that they are engaged.

Recently, Karan and Tejasswi, who were dating for 4 years before getting engaged on Desi Bling, opened up about how the actress’s parents reacted to their relationship. Karan mentioned that Tejasswi’s mother didn’t trust her and wanted her to live with him, so the actor could be sure about her.

Speaking to Angad Bedi and Neha Dhupia on their YouTube podcast, Karan Kundrra shared, “Her mother said that she doesn’t trust

her daughter at all, and I should take time to think about her, because she isn’t fine. Her father was okay with our relationship.”

Tejasswi added, “She wanted to make sure he was comfortable. My mom was the one who insisted we stay in a live-in before we decided to get married. So many people are against it, but my mom thinks that we should live together and see.”

Karan and Tejasswi met on Bigg Boss and fell in love over the course of the show. “That (Bigg Boss) is where the fondness started,” Karan said. Tejasswi added, “When he said that he likes me, I really felt like he seemed really honest. I took my time to really test him. I just wanted to make sure that he really means what he is saying, and he proved it every time.”

Their relationship began during their time on Bigg Boss 15, where audiences witnessed their bond develop on camera. What initially started as a friendship gradually turned into romance as the two spent more time together. Their chemistry quickly became one of the biggest talking points of the season, with fans giving them the nickname “TejRan.”

Unlike many reality-show romances that fade after the show ends, Karan and Tejasswi continued dating outside the house, which significantly increased public interest in their relationship. The couple frequently appeared together at events, vacations, award shows, and social gatherings, while also openly interacting with each other on social media.

The couple has also faced occasional trolling and breakup rumours online, something many celebrity relationships experience in the age of constant digital visibility. However, Karan and Tejasswi have often responded to such speculation humorously, continuing to appear together publicly despite internet gossip cycles.

Most recently, they appeared on Desi Bling, where Karan’s confessions about the relationship shocked fans. However, they worked through their problems, and Karan proposed to Tejasswi at the end of the show.
