He dated his childhood friend Devika Mehra, a fashion designer for almost 10 years, and in 2009, the couple got married. During an interview, while talking about her, Karan said,
We were together since school time -we were classmates. And, she was the most beautiful girl and popular – at least four-five guys in my class wanted to befriend her but, I got lucky! I think even she knew ki banda actor banega toh pakad lo isey (laughs). Jokes apart, she is the best person I have in my life and over the years, our love, understanding and friendship is just the same.â
Later, the couple started facing problems in their married life, and after almost eight years of their marriage, the couple got divorced. In an interview, he talked about his divorce, he said,
Maybe, we were not made for each other. A childhood friendship of 10 years and another eight of marriage could not withstand the blitz of the glamour world. As my career grew, she also chose to become a part of this charismatic world, and soon, we began to drift apart. I felt like I had begun to slip from her list of priorities. Consequently, our equations changed and I got linked to actresses, actors and creative producers, and it was the beginning of the end.” [4]Bollywood Life
