Finally! Karan Kundrra proposes to Tejasswi Prakash after 5 years of dating: 5 relationship lessons to borrow from 'TejRan'

Karan Kundrra and Tejasswi Prakash have long been one of Indian television’s most-loved couples. Their on-screen chemistry and real-life bond have kept fans invested in their journey—and for the last few years, viewers have been asking one question: 'When will they get married?' Now, it seems the answer has finally arrived.

Karan Kundrra recently proposed to Tejasswi Prakash during a special episode of the reality show, 'Desi Bling'. The show is a spin-off of 'Dubai Bling', which premiered on Netflix on May 20, 2026.In a lavishly decorated setting, with the rest of the cast—including luxury tycoons and socialites like Rizwan Sajan, Satish Sanpal, Adel Sajan, Dyuti Parruk, Janvee Gaur, Sana Sajan, Lailli Mirza, Alizey Mirza, Tabina Sanpal, Pamela Serena, and Iryna Kinakh—helping with the surprise, Karan created a romantic, deeply personal proposal moment, as per reports.

When Tejasswi entered the venue, she was greeted by glowing words on the water: “Will You Marry Me?” Illuminated letters floated across the water, setting the tone for a truly cinematic moment. Karan then got down on one knee and proposed to Tejasswi in Punjabi, asking, “Tejasswi Prakash, will you marry me?” Visibly emotional, she responded, “I am shivering. My hands are not going to stop,” and recalled the early days of their relationship, when people doubted that they would last even a few weeks.

She said, “Jab hum mile the, toh bahut kuch hua tha… Jab hum bahar aaye, sab ne kaha tha ki yeh toh 2 hafte nahi tikenge. Kisi ne kaha tha main fake hu; kisi ne kaha tu fake hai. It’s been four years; we’ve seen everything, and we’ve been through everything.”

Her words captured the journey they’ve shared over the years. Karan, in his emotional speech, added depth to the moment, saying, “‘Imperfectly perfect love story’, yeh tune hi term diya tha. Every year that I spent with you, it has changed the meaning of love for me. I never thought I would ever fall in love or commit.I want to thank you for bringing out the man in me, the man who has the guts to say, ‘This is it. It’s now and forever.’”

The proposal left Tejasswi in tears of joy, while the rest of the cast erupted in cheers. Fans of “TejRan” are celebrating the couple’s engagement, with clips of the proposal spreading across social media. But beyond the romance and grandeur, their relationship offers practical lessons too. Here we list some of them:

Karan and Tejasswi didn’t rush into engagement, even after years of rumours and speculation. Since meeting on Bigg Boss 15 in 2021, they’ve taken their time to get to know each other.During their dating phase, they not only grew as individuals but also as a couple.Both have continued building successful careers—Tejasswi in acting and hosting, Karan in television and reality shows—without letting fame come between them.

Long-term relationships thrive when both partners evolve together, not apart. Instead of clinging to the idea that you must “settle down” by a certain age, focus on growing into the kind of partner you want to be. When both people feel emotionally secure, the big step feels natural, not pressured.

Karan’s proposal showed that saying "I love you" out loud isn't just for show—it’s what actually keeps a relationship alive. It doesn’t always have to be a massive public spectacle either; a simple, random text during a crazy workday works wonders. Real romance doesn't just fizzle out on its own; it dies when people stop putting their feelings into words. Make appreciation a daily habit. When your partner feels genuinely noticed and valued, it creates a cozy safety net that keeps you both anchored together when life gets heavy.

What makes "TejRan" so relatable is their playful banter. Their interviews are always packed with inside jokes and lighthearted teasing. Humour helps in diffusing relationship tension. Couples who can laugh together, often stay together in the long run. Humour won’t automatically solve the issue, but it makes the problem feel totally manageable.

Karan’s proposal was a grand celebration of their four years of togetherness. He chose to make Tejasswi feel valued, recognised, and deeply cherished. Grand gestures aren’t obligatory, but acknowledging milestones—anniversaries, achievements, or even the fact that you’ve weathered a difficult phase together—keeps the relationship exciting.

Celebrations don’t have to be extravagant. A simple note, a quiet dinner, or going on walks keeps the emotional connection alive.

Tejasswi standing by Karan through messy controversies proved one major thing: real trust completely silences outside noise. It’s a masterclass in keeping your relationship private. Healthy couples handle their drama behind closed doors. When external interference starts, pause and remind yourself why you chose each other in the first place. Lock out the gossip and double down on trust over suspicion. When you both feel totally secure, you can face whatever judgment the world throws at you as a united front.
