The year 2026 barely had time to settle in before Bollywood found its first soft but sparkling moment. No choreographed declarations. No fireworks cutting through the night sky. Just a woman caught mid-surprise, a ring that demanded attention, and a caption that felt disarmingly honest. When Nupur Sanon shared photographs from her engagement, social media did what it does best. It paused, zoomed in, speculated, and then celebrated. The images showed warmth rather than spectacle. A proposal that felt private even while being shared publicly. And at the centre of it stood singer Stebin Ben, now officially set to become the brother-in-law of Kriti Sanon. As congratulatory messages poured in, curiosity followed close behind. Who exactly is Stebin Ben beyond
the playlists? How does the couple live? And what does their life together look like ahead of a royal wedding in Udaipur?
Who is Stebin Ben, and where did it all begin?
Stebin Ben was born in 1993 in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, far removed from recording studios and red carpets. He studied at Carmel Convent Co-ed School before completing a degree in civil engineering from LNCT Group of Colleges. Music, however, refused to stay a hobby. In 2016, he packed his bags and moved to Mumbai, trading blueprints for microphones. During his struggling years, Sebtin mostly played at college festivals, café gigs, and small venues, but that didn't pay well.
The song that changed everything
In 2021, his major breakthrough came with Thoda Thoda Pyaar, a song that quickly climbed charts. What followed was a run of romantic hits—Baarish Ban Jaana, Sahiba, and Rula Ke Gaya Ishq. Since then, he has collaborated with composers and singers across the industry and lent his voice to actors such as Sidharth Malhotra, Akshay Kumar, Rajkummar Rao, Emraan Hashmi, Vijay Deverakonda, Tiger Shroff, and Shahid Kapoor. His music today averages over ten million monthly listeners on Spotify, a figure that speaks of both reach and relevance.
Inside Stebin Ben’s Mumbai home
Success soon translated into bricks and mortar. According to GQ, Stebin Ben purchased a sprawling duplex apartment in Mumbai in late 2024 or early 2025 for approximately Rs 6.67 crore. The home reflects understated luxury rather than excess, mirroring the singer’s largely low-profile public persona. While exact interiors remain private, industry watchers note that the purchase firmly places Stebin among a new generation of musicians who have turned streaming numbers into long-term assets.
A garage built on childhood dreams
Stebin Ben’s love for cars borders on nostalgic devotion. In an episode of History on Wheels by Mashable India, he spoke about growing up obsessed with scale models and racing games. According to The Indian Express, his current garage is valued at over Rs 7.25 crore. The collection includes a Mercedes-Benz S-Class priced around Rs 1.9 crore, a Porsche Boxster valued near Rs 1.57 crore, and his most expensive purchase, a Lamborghini Urus costing approximately Rs 3.01 crore. He has also spoken openly about aspiring to own a Rolls Royce Phantom Extended Wheelbase or a Ghost someday, models that are priced at over Rs 10 crore each.
Nupur Sanon carving her own path
Unlike her globally famous sister, Nupur Sanon’s journey has been quieter and deliberately paced. She has appeared in music videos, made her film debut with Noorani Chehra and featured in Tiger Nageswara Rao. Alongside acting, she continues to explore music, gradually building a career that stands independent of her surname. Details of her personal assets remain largely undisclosed. Industry insiders suggest her lifestyle is steadily evolving as her career expands, though official figures around property, cars, or net worth are not publicly available.
How the couple’s combined net worth stacks up
While Stebin Ben’s exact net worth is not officially declared, his real estate and investments in cars point to substantial earnings. Nupur’s personal wealth remains private, but together the couple represents a blend of established success and rising potential. For comparison, Kriti Sanon's estimated net worth around Rs 82 crore as of 2025, according to multiple industry reports. She resides in a luxury duplex in Andheri West and earns through films, endorsements, and her businesses, Hyphen and The Tribe.
The proposal that felt real
Nupur Sanon’s engagement photographs captured laughter, disbelief, and joy rather than staged perfection. The ring, striking in size and sparkle, quickly became a talking point. Yet it was the ease between the couple that drew attention. Friends close to them describe Stebin as old school in matters of love, preferring intention over display.
A winter wedding in Udaipur awaits
The couple is set to tie the knot on January 11, 2026, at Fairmont Udaipur Palace, followed by a reception in Mumbai. According to reports, weddings at the palace rank among the most premium in Rajasthan, often costing several crores depending on scale and guest list.
Udaipur continues to be a favourite for celebrity weddings, offering privacy wrapped in heritage splendour.
A love story still unfolding
Stebin Ben’s rise from Bhopal to Bollywood playlists and Nupur Sanon’s steady climb in films and music intersect at a moment that feels earned rather than hurried. Their engagement marks not just a personal milestone but the coming together of two careers shaped by patience and persistence. As wedding festivities draw closer, attention will only grow. But if their proposal is anything to go by, this will remain a story told on their own terms, quietly confident and refreshingly grounded.
