How did Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash meet?
Tejasswi and Karan were both contestants on Bigg Boss 15 Season 15, which aired in 2021, but they recently revealed that they’d reached out to each other earlier. In a May 2026 interview with Curly Tales, the couple said they’d exchanged hellos before the show. They went on to become close friends in the Bigg Boss house, leading to plenty of fans shipping them until Tejasswi won the season.
When did Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash start dating?
Karan and Tejasswi reconnected after Bigg Boss 15 ended in 2021. Per Times of India, Prakash said, “We started dating officially on October 24,” which was three weeks after filming ended. During their joint Curly Tales interview, they recalled their first date at a Japanese restaurant. Tejasswi said she had to ask somebody for Karan’s number because he “had disappeared” after filming. “In life, I messaged first,” Karan joked.
Tejasswi shared more details about their first date with Pinkvilla, according to the Times of India. “It was the first time we were out for dinner,” she recalled. “Just the two of us. The night was a lot more about conversation, about a lot of things that he didn’t know about me, I didn’t know about him. It was a very, very special night.”
Between then and now, Karan and Tejasswi made regular public appearances and kept fans posted on social media, according to Lifestyle Asia . Since they both lived in Mumbai, their work schedules had them alternating between staying in each other’s homes. In May 2026, the couple gave a house tour to Curly Tales, which Tejasswi said Karan bought in part because her mom said he needed to. The actress added that she’d been living in Karan’s home full-time since January 2026.
“I personally feel it is extremely important to live with the person before you get married because after living with the person you love, it gives you more clarity than just going on dates and drives,” Tejasswi said on the Humans of Bombay podcast.
Of going on Desi Bling as a couple, Kundrra said, “A lot of people would not opt for a show like this. You never know if it’s going to work for them, if it’s not going to work for them. Even a show like Big Boss — it doesn’t work for everybody. So you have to be a little fearless. You have to have a little streak of adventure. Me and her are very similar in that way.”
