Love life and wife

Anupam hasn’t spoken about his love life in public, and some of his fans believe him to be gay.

India’s amongst the countries with the fewest number of people identifying as homosexual or bisexual, however, some of Anupam’s fans believe that the reason why he hasn’t spoken of the women whom he’s dated is because he’s attracted to men. Some also believe that he moved to South Korea after having fallen for a Korean man, but this hasn’t been addressed by Anupam.

He seems to be unattached as of February 2023, hasn’t married and doesn’t have children.
