Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani recently tied the knot in a grand wedding ceremony on February 21, 2025. The week-long festivities were widely covered on social media, with the Kapoor family attending in style. However, one particular moment from the celebrations sparked controversy when a video of Aadar’s wedding speech went viral. During his speech, Aadar mentioned, "I was doing timepass for 20 years", which was widely misinterpreted online as a dig at his ex-girlfriend Tara Sutaria. Social media users quickly criticized Aadar, accusing him of being disrespectful and hinting at infidelity in his previous relationship.
In response to the growing controversy, Aadar addressed the situation in an interview with ETimes. He clarified that his statement had been taken out of context and misquoted. Aadar explained that he actually said, "I've said 20 years", without any negative implication toward his past relationship.
He elaborated further, expressing disappointment at how a brief 10-second clip was manipulated to create false narratives. Aadar emphasized that both he and his family have always maintained respect for everyone, including Tara Sutaria and her family. He added that Alekha had been one of his oldest friends, and their relationship blossomed naturally before they decided to get married.
Addressing the emotional aspect of breakups, Aadar mentioned that sometimes relationships simply don't work out, and that’s normal. He stressed that ending a relationship doesn’t give anyone the right to disrespect or speak ill of their past. Aadar concluded by saying that his family values respect for both the past and the present, and he would never intentionally direct hurtful remarks at anyone, especially not at Tara Sutaria. He expressed regret that the viral video caused unnecessary negativity and assured that there was no truth to the hurtful claims circulating online.
The viral speech controversy has since gained mixed reactions from fans, with some supporting Aadar’s explanation and others remaining skeptical. Despite the temporary controversy, Aadar Jain and Alekha Advani’s wedding remains a joyous occasion for the Kapoor family, and the couple’s strong bond has stood resilient in the face of public scrutiny.
