Who is Rohan Thakkar? All about Anshula Kapoor’s fiance

Anshula Kapoor, daughter of renowned film producer Boney Kapoor and sister of Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor, is now officially engaged to Rohan Thakkar, a Los Angeles-based screenwriter. The couple shared the joyful news with their followers through a heartfelt Instagram post, accompanied by dreamy pictures from the proposal site — Central Park, New York City.

The couple has been together for over three years, and their engagement marks a new beginning in what Anshula calls “an intentional, thoughtful, and very real love story.”

💍 The Proposal: A Moment Straight Out of a Love Story

Anshula revealed that the proposal happened at 1:15 AM IST, which holds deep significance — it was the exact time when she and Rohan had their first ever conversation three years ago on a dating app.

“3 years later, in my favourite city, in front of the castle in Central Park, he proposed! At exactly 1.15 AM India time! And somehow the world paused just long enough for the moment to feel like magic,” — Anshula Kapoor on Instagram

She added, “I’ve never been the girl who believed in fairytales… but what Rohan gave me that day was better. Because it was intentional. Thoughtful. Real. Us.”

Following the proposal, the couple went to Shake Shack, a sentimental spot for them, as their first real connection happened over a shared love for shroom burgers.

How They Met: A Love Born in Silence and Laughter

Rohan and Anshula’s story began in 2022, when the two matched on a dating app. Their first chat began at 1:15 AM and lasted until dawn — a moment that left both of them feeling an immediate connection.

Over the next three years, their relationship bloomed quietly. Despite being from the entertainment industry, both Rohan and Anshula kept their love story grounded and away from the media spotlight.
