Where the Family Karma Cast’s Friendships and Relationships Stand After the Season 3 Finale
Get all the details on Amrit Kapai, Anisha Ramakrishna, Bali Chainani, and more of the Family Karma cast's lives since Season 3 wrapped.
Family Karma Season 3 has officially come to a close, but we're here to share all the updates on the cast's lives since filming wrapped. Read on to see what's new with Amrit Kapai, Anisha Ramakrishna, Bali Chainani, Brian Benni, Monica Vaswani, Rish Karam, and Vishal Parvani.
Amrit Kapai
After saying "I do" on the Season 3 finale, Amrit and his husband Nicholas Kouchoukos are now hoping to grow their family.
"The one thing Nicholas and I have known for a long time now is that we both want to be dads," Amrit told E! News in December. "It took us a long time to get to the wedding part of our lives, to get to the being married part of our lives, and we know for sure we don’t want to spend that same amount of time waiting for kids. We don’t want five or six or seven years to go by before we start the process, because we both know it’s not as easy to have a kid when there’s no woman involved in the relationship."
Amrit gave an even more recent update on his and Nicholas' surrogacy journey on February 26. "We’re still working through some of the issues that viewers were able to see, and we’re still in active contact with our physician and IVF doctor," he told Decider. "We have an appointment coming up in a few weeks actually. We’re still very hopeful. We’re not going to let that minor roadblock derail us from the journey."
Anisha Ramakrishna
Ahead of the Family Karma Season 3 premiere, Anisha confirmed that she had secretly gotten married in October. She didn't reveal her husband's identity at the time, but we now know that she said "I do" to 36-year-old vascular surgeon Dr. Anand Tarpara. Anisha shared the details of their relationship and wedding with PEOPLE on February 27, including the fact that they met online in 2021 and moved in together after about eight months of dating.
As for the couple's nuptials, Anisha said they wed at her parents’ Miami home in front of "immediate family and very few friends" on October 8. “We did a traditional Indian Puja, which is a ritual with the prayers and the priest," Anisha added. "I also did henna on my hands. We had a Mehndi day. I think there’s just two things I didn’t do, which is the welcome dance, a Sangeet, and the Haldi, which is where you put the turmeric all over your body. I just did it in a very closed setting.”
Bali Chainani
Fans watched Bali and her longtime boyfriend, O'Malley, take a big step in their relationship together on the Season 3 finale when they agreed to move in with one another. More specifically, Bali and her daughter would be moving to Louisville, Kentucky to be with O'Malley. As he told her, "You've had a home in Louisville for a long time. The house is so much better with you in it."
Today, the relationship appears to be going stronger than ever. Bali took to Twitter after the finale aired and responded to several fans who were gushing over the sweet moment she and O'Malley shared. "He's the best," Bali responded to one fan; also writing "He's amazing" to another.
As for their future together, O'Malley confirmed on Family Karma that he wants to eventually marry Bali.
Brian Benni
Things may not have worked out with Richa Sadana’s pal Avni Parekh after she friend-zoned Brian on Season 3, but he hasn't let the fear of striking out keep him from the dating game. In fact, while playing a matchmaking game dubbed "Eyein' for Brian" on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen in January, Brian decided to shoot his shot with a fellow Bravolebrity. Who? Shahs of Sunset's Golnesa "GG" Gharachedaghi, who Brian said he's "always had a thing for."
There's no telling if anything's come of the confession, but we do have an update on another part of Brian's life: his friendship with Vishal. Vishal was asked on WWHL on February 26 if the drama between his mom, Reshma, and Brian's mom, Dharma, has affected his and Brian's friendship, to which he responded, "I didn't want it to, but yes it has. Unfortunately, parents do play a big part in our relationships ... We'll see if we can work through it or not."
Monica Vaswani and Rish Karam
Season 3 was a difficult one for Monica as she was forced to deal with rumors that Rish had cheated on her. (He denied the accusations). It's currently unknown if the two are still together, but Monica told Showbiz CheatSheet on February 25 that she's focused on her own journey for now.
"I can tell you that I’ve really focused my energy on taking a step back for myself and focusing on my dreams and my career and really kind of taking my power back," she said. "I think that that’s the journey that I’m on right now is really just taking my power back and not wanting to put so much pressure on anybody or anything else to give me peace or give me happiness. And so I think I’m really at a place right now where I’m happy and I feel so fulfilled and I feel so content with where I’m at. But it’s been a journey to get that power back."
Vishal Parvani
After being together for more than a decade, Vishal and Richa Sadana finally got married early on in Family Karma Season 3. Though there was some initial trouble with the marriage certificate, that was later sorted out, and ever since then, Vishal and Richa have been living their best lives together.
In fact, the couple recently celebrated their first wedding anniversary in the best way possible: by going on their "dream honeymoon" to Patagonia in South America.
"After one year we finally got to celebrate our honeymoon," Vishal captioned a recap video shared to Instagram on January 16. "We thought for a long time about where we would want to have our honeymoon and after a lot of research we decided on Patagonia. Neither one of us wanted to do a traditional trip where we sit and relax on the beach. Patagonia was the perfect location. We spent our days outdoors in nature disconnected from the real world and in the evenings we would come to our beautiful hotel for amazing food, craft cocktails, spa treatments and a comfy bed."
As for their relationship? Added Vishal, "It’s been a crazy year, but I believe we are stronger and continue to grow in love because of it! I love you!"
