Nikhil Kamath, a young businessman, has made news due to his ties to Bollywood. A few months back, there was news of him linked to Manushi Chhillar, the Miss World 2017 and Bollywood actress. However, it was recently announced that Kamath and Chhillar separated amicably. The former couple's separation became public after they unfollowed one other on Instagram.

For the uninitiated, Nikhil Kamath was born in Karnataka on September 5, 1985, to a Konkani Brahmin family. Due to his lack of interest in education, the business magnate dropped out of school before completing his tenth grade and was refused permission to take Board Exams. Kamath chose not to attend college and does not have a formal degree.
