Ruma was Kishore's first wife and the mother of his son, Amit Kumar. However, their marriage was marred by frequent fights and misunderstandings, and they eventually got divorced in 1958.

Kishore Kumar's second marriage was with actress Madhubala, one of the most beautiful and talented actresses of the Indian film industry. They fell in love on the sets of the film "Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi" and got married in 1960. However, their marriage was also marked by several issues, including Madhubala's poor health, financial troubles, and Kishore's eccentric behavior. They remained married until Madhubala's death in 1969.

After Madhubala's death, Kishore Kumar got married for the third time to Yogeeta Bali, an actress who had worked with him in several films. Their marriage was short-lived and lasted for only two years. Kishore Kumar's erratic behavior and alleged affairs were said to be the reason behind their separation.

Kishore Kumar's fourth and final marriage was with Leena Chandavarkar, another actress who had worked with him in several films. They got married in 1980, and their marriage lasted until Kishore Kumar's death in 1987. Leena was known to be a calming influence on Kishore Kumar and was said to have brought stability to his life.

In conclusion, Kishore Kumar's personal life was as eventful and tumultuous as his professional career. He got married four times and had his fair share of ups and downs in his relationships. However, he remained one of the most beloved and revered figures in Indian cinema and music, and his songs continue to enthrall audiences even today.
