Seema Kapoor: Om Puri's first wife reveals lost child

Seema Kapoor, the first wife of late actor Om Puri, has recounted the most difficult period of her life, detailing the breakdown of their marriage. Kapoor revealed that during her pregnancy, Om Puri's life changed when another woman entered the picture, leading her to relocate to Rajasthan.

Her family, particularly her brother Annu Kapoor, urged her to engage in a legal battle. However, Seema resisted, fearing that legal proceedings would irrevocably end the relationship. She believed confronting the issue legally would eliminate any future for their marriage.

Tragically, Kapoor lost her unborn child during this period, a loss that deeply affected her as she had envisioned a future solely with this child, having decided against future marriages. She coped by writing letters to the child she lost.

Kapoor reflected that her departure might have been fatal to the marriage, as Om Puri later married Nandita Puri. The emotional blows, including the loss of her child and eventual divorce, became overwhelming.

Years later, Om Puri contacted Kapoor before a surgery in London, seeking forgiveness for his actions. Kapoor described this as genuine remorse, indicating his guilt over how he treated her persisted. Despite the heartbreak, she views Om Puri as a pivotal figure in her life, valuing the deep connection they shared.
