Kriti Sanon Plays Cupid: Convinces Mom for Nupur's Love Story with Stebin Ben
Nupur Sanon credits sister Kriti for winning over their hesitant mother.
Actor-singer Nupur Sanon recently opened up about the heartfelt journey leading to her marriage with popular playback singer Stebin Ben. In a candid interview, she revealed how her elder sister, Bollywood star Kriti Sanon, became her biggest ally when it came to sharing the news of their relationship with the family. The couple, who dated for five years before tying the knot in beautiful interfaith ceremonies—first Christian and then Hindu—in Udaipur earlier this month, faced typical parental concerns along the way.
Nupur shared that Kriti was the very first person she confided in when things got serious with Stebin. Despite the five-year age gap, the sisters share an exceptionally close bond, describing each other as best friends. At that time, Stebin was just beginning his music career, so Nupur focused on his personality rather than his professional achievements. She made Kriti listen to his voice, and her sister was instantly impressed, praising his magical voice and immense talent. This early support from Kriti laid the foundation for what came next.
When Nupur eventually gathered the courage to tell their mother, the response was cautious—as is common with parents worried about the seriousness and future stability of the relationship. Sensing the hesitation, Kriti stepped in decisively. She reassured their mother by sharing her own positive experiences, saying she had met Stebin, heard his music, and seen his dedication and hard work firsthand.

The couple's love story culminated in dreamy wedding celebrations, followed by a star-studded reception in Mumbai. Nupur's revelations highlight the strong sibling support within the Sanon family and how Kriti's intervention turned initial doubts into blessings for the newlyweds' happily ever after.
