Singer Stebin Ben and actor Kriti Sanon's sister Nupur Sanon tied the knot earlier this year in the presence of their close family members and friends.
Recently, the couple were spotted stepping out with their parents. However, the video quickly went viral after many on social media claimed that Stebin's mother ignored Nupur and her family and walked away in a hurry.
In a recent interaction, Stebin defended his mother and cleared the air around the viral moment. He told Galatta India, "My parents are very simple people. Whenever they see the media, they quietly move away because they feel that the media is there for me, not for them. They think, 'This is your profession. People want to see you, not us.' My parents didn't know the media was standing there. The moment they saw the flashlights, they just started walking ahead. I told them, 'It's okay, you go ahead, we'll come behind.' Nupur tried to stop them, but they didn't even realise someone was calling them. They just thought, 'Media hai, chalo nikalte hain.'"
Stebin dismissed the online chatter suggesting there was tension between his family and Nupur. He also gave an example of how close Nupur and his mother actually are.
Nupur and Stebin first crossed paths while collaborating on music videos, thanks to their shared passion for music. They soon started dating but kept their relationship under wraps for several years. However, they announced their engagement in early 2026 and later tied the knot in grand Christian and Hindu wedding ceremonies held in Udaipur.
