Re: Shashi Kapoor has been admitted to the hospital

In the article it says about Karishma Kapoor, Recently she got engaged with Abhishek Bachchan as the two have been going through since long and finally decided to tie the knot. Both families are happy with this new relationship as Amitabh Bachchan’s daughter, Shweta is already a Bahu (daughter-in-law) of Kapoor family.

old news about engagement, obviously not a recent article…but I didn’t know Amithab’s daughter was married into the Kapoor family. To who?
