After parting ways with TV actress Kamya Punjabi, Ye Hai Mohabbatein actor Karan Patel is getting married to TV actress, Ankita Bhargava on May 3 this year. While the news has come as a shocker for Karan’s fans, the actor is super-excited about the new chapter of his life. According to a report on Indiatoday.in, his fiancée Ankita has also rubbished the rumours about her being the reason behind Karan’s break-up by revealing that Karan and Kamya broke up in December last year.

Now that Karan is all set to tie the knot with Ankita Bhargava, his on-screen father-in-law from the show will turn his real-life father-in-law. Abhay Bhargava, who plays the role of Raman's father-in-law in Yeh Hai Mohabbatein, is Ankita's father. So while shooting schedules might keep Karan away from his ladylove, his father-in-law will always be around.

Karan Patel: Lesser known facts

While many think that Karan was in a relationship with his Kasturi co-actor, Amita Chandekar, he revealed in an interview with TOI that she was never his real-life girlfriend. Karan had said, "I'd like to clarify that I don't have a girlfriend. This was something I needed to clear for a long time. It's a misunderstanding that has been allowed to go on for too long. Amita and I were close friends. And we were together for some time, though not as a couple. Our togetherness was mistaken for something else. I'm much relieved to clear this notion."
