Om Puri's Ex Wife, Seema Shares He Apologised To Her After Affair With Nandita, 'Maine Acha Nai Kia'

Om Puri's first wife, Seema Kapoor, a writer and a filmmaker, does not consider the late actor a curse but a blessing in her life. Seema got married to Om back in 1991, and their marriage lasted for less than a year. The late actor then got married to journalist Nandita Puri. Although after 14 years, he had again reunited with Kapoor and until 2017, they shared a good bond. The personal life of the late actor was always in the limelight, and Seema recently shared how her late husband asked for forgiveness after he realised about his extramarital affair.

Seema Kapoor revealed that Om Puri sought forgiveness from her after he had a paralytic attack

Seema was carrying Om's child when he was having an affair with Nandita. Now, in a recent interview with Galatta India, Seema shared that whatever equation she had with Om, she never got it out in the public eye. She had left their home when she came to know about his affair with Nandita, and said that she did not defame him in public. Seema shared that she never wanted to say bad things about Om, as after he got married to Nandita, his health deteriorated. In her words:

"Mei uss ghar se nikal gayi thi aur maine kaha nai ab zyada hora hai unka affair Nandita pe padh gaye thei. Mei nai chahti thi mere bachei ko nuksan hoh toh mei chali gayi thi. Aur shadi ke baad unki joh bhi takleefe hui thi main joh hua tha woh tha ki unko paralytic attack hua tha. Mujhe bataya tha unhone. Unke haath kapne lage thei, nerves joh thei woh damage hoh gayi thi. 1993 ke baad 2005 ya 2006 mei unka phone aata hai aur woh operation ke liye jare thei. Major operation tha unka London mei tab unhone mujhse mafi mangi thi ki maine acha nai kia. Court mei ghaseeta aur yeh mere se kaise hoh gaya."

When Seema Kapoor spoke about finding her strength after knowing about Om Puri's affair

Seema, who is the sister of famous old actor Anu Kapoor, in her memoir named Yoon Guzri Hai Ab Talak, shared about how she grew up around Parsi theatres, spoke about her filmy career and about how she talked to people from the filmy world. She said that sometimes, it is only when life jolts you that you truly discover your strength and resilience. If she hadn't endured those hardships, perhaps she wouldn't be where she is today. Seema also revealed that she did not want to separate from the actor, but she did not have a choice. In her words:

"Divorce is never easy, especially when it's unexpected. I didn't want the divorce. We had a deep, long-lasting relationship, years of friendship and love before marriage. Sadly, within a year and a half of our marriage, another woman entered his life."

Seema, who has been headstrong, had also shared that she never believed in fighting over love. When she was pregnant at the time, the emotional strain at home became overwhelming. The presence of Nandita, the woman he had an affair with, made it emotionally distressing.
