Popular TV actor Ram Kapoor made a candid confession about his past relationships during the latest episode of the reality show Lock Upp 2, admitting that he had “countless” affairs before marrying Gautami Kapoor.
His remarks quickly caught the attention of fellow contestant Shreya Kalra, to whom he was narrating the story, while also recalling how producer Ektaa Kapoor had once warned Gautami about his reputation before their wedding.
What did Ram Kapoor say about his multiple affairs before marrying Gautami Kapoor?
Describing himself as a “playboy” in his younger days, Ram said that his life changed completely after marriage. “Okay, I’ll tell you honestly. When everyone came to know that Gautami and Ram were getting married, Ektaa, who is my friend, called Gautami Kapoor and told her, ‘What are you doing? He’s had so many affairs. What are you doing?'” Ram shared on the show.
He further revealed that Ektaa’s concern was genuine, acknowledging that his image at the time justified her warning. “Ektaa was worried for her. And I acknowledge that what Ektaa did was right because I was that man,” he admitted.
When Shreya Kalra asked him whether he had ever had an affair after getting married, Ram was quick to clarify that he had remained faithful throughout his marriage. “After marriage, I have not had even a single affair. Before marriage? Can’t count,” he said, drawing attention for his frank admission.
Ram’s candid revelations have sparked conversations among viewers, with many praising him for openly acknowledging his past instead of trying to hide it. Others appreciated that he credited his marriage with bringing stability and commitment into his life.

The couple has two children, a daughter, Sia, and a son, Aks, and often shares glimpses of their family life on social media.
