For the unversed, Nirmal Kapoor tied the knot with the late veteran producer Surinder Kapoor. They had four children—Anil, Reena, Boney, and Sanjay Kapoor. She is also the grandmother to some well-known Bollywood celebs such as Janhvi Kapoor, Khushi Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, Arjun Kapoor, Shanaya Kapoor, Jahaan Kapoor, and more.
