Veteran actor, Ram Kapoor is one of the highest-paid actors on Indian television with a notable presence in cinema. However, his rise to stardom was not a joyous ride, he had to hustle and strive relentlessly to make a name for himself. During his initial years in the industry, there were times when he neither had income nor any project up his sleeve for months and even years. When such a time comes, one needs a partner who supports and motivates them to stay on track. Such is the equation between Ram Kapoor and his wife, actress, Gautami Kapoor.
Ram Kapoor reveals Gautami took the reins of the household during the first year of their marriage
Ram and Gautami have been married since 2003, and during the course of their journey together, they endured numerous pitfalls that really tested their love and support for one another. Recently, in a candid conversation with Cyrus Broacha on his YouTube channel, the actor revealed that during the first year of their marriage, he lived off Gautami’s income, as he had no work at the time. Talking about his financial struggles back in the day, Ram shared:
“I’ve been an actor for 25 years now, and for the first I would say ten to twelve years, I had major ups and downs, where there were periods of no work periods of very little money. In fact when I got married, for the first year of my marriage, I was living off of Gautami’s income because she was working, I had no work… I don’t mind even saying it!”
