Nupur Sanon, actress and younger sister to Bollywood star Kriti Sanon, recently shared details about how Kriti played a pivotal role in their parents' acceptance of singer Stebin Ben, whom Nupur recently married. Nupur openly discussed that at an earlier stage in her relationship with Stebin, she felt there 'wasn't much to show career-wise,' which initially caused some parental apprehension. Her mother was reportedly hesitant, exercising caution regarding the seriousness and future of the relationship. It was Kriti Sanon who stepped in to bridge this gap, vouching for Stebin's character and talent. Nupur recounted Kriti telling their mother, 'I've met Stebin. I've heard him. He's extremely talented and hardworking.' This reassurance from Kriti significantly impacted their parents' perspective, eventually leading to their acceptance. Counselling psychologist Athul Raj, quoted in The Indian Express article, explains that in Indian families, sibling reassurance carries significant weight as they are seen as emotionally invested yet clear-headed, understanding family values while not being directly in love. Nupur Sanon and Stebin Ben officially tied the knot in Udaipur, Rajasthan, with Christian and Hindu ceremonies held on January 10 and 11, 2026, respectively. The couple also hosted a grand reception in Mumbai for their industry friends. This story, originally reported by The Indian Express, has been corroborated by several other credible news outlets including Hindustan Times, ETimes, and News24, confirming Nupur's statements and the couple's marriage.
