Actress Shanaya Kapoor has opened up about a difficult and unexpected episode from her past relationship. She shared that she had caught her ex-boyfriend messaging five other women while they were on holiday abroad.
Speaking on a recent podcast relationship adviceShe described how she first believed she was experiencing the ideal romance, but suffered betrayal during what seemed like an ordinary evening.
Reflecting on her experience, Shanaya said, “I was thinking, ‘This is it. This is too good to be true. What a life, wow. This is the best relationship.'” However, the feeling of security was short-lived as events took an unexpected turn.
The moment of betrayal: finding the message
The key moment came when the couple was preparing to go out for dinner. Shanaya’s phone battery was drained, so she asked to use her boyfriend’s device to book a cab. While unlocking his phone, he saw a message notification from his ex-girlfriend. Out of curiosity and growing unease, she opened the chat and found what she described as an inappropriate exchange.
The initial search for Shanaya progressed rapidly. “Second girl came, third girl, fourth, fifth. He was messaging five girls,” she said, explaining that he was communicating with each as if he was alone. The prevalence of the messages left her in disbelief and prompted her to seek immediate guidance from friends.
Seeking support from Ananya Pandey
In a state of shock, Shanaya took screenshots of the conversation and sent them to her close friends via Snapchat for advice. Actor Ananya Pandey was also among the people she reached out to. According to Shanaya, Ananya urged her to immediately leave the situation and come to her, as they were relatively close. However, being in a foreign country, Shanaya felt uncertain about her options and unsafe away from home.
Talking about the challenging situation, Shanaya said, “My friend, Ananya (Pandey), said, ‘Take the train and just come here. We were very close.’ I was like, ‘I can’t catch the train, what do I do?’ This whole dinner, I’ve been pretending like everything is fine.” For the next three days, she maintained a façade of normalcy during dinners and outings while processing the betrayal in private.
Confrontation, Guilt, and Moving On
Eventually, Shanaya’s boyfriend realized that something was wrong and tried to calm her down by gifting her an expensive pair of earrings. She confronts him about the messages and sarcastically refers to the present as “guilty earrings”. Despite ending the relationship, she admitted that the gift was still with her, joking that she had “earned” it through the ordeal.
When confronted, her former partner reportedly downplayed the situation, arguing that it was “just messaging” and that nothing physical had occurred. However, Shanaya considered the incident an emotional betrayal and considered the breach of trust irreparable.
On the work front, she is currently promoting her latest film you and meWhich was released on 13 February along with O Romeo.
