When Randhir Kapoor Accused Sunjay Kapur Of Living With Another Woman Before Divorcing Karisma Kapoor: "He Was Giving Bulls**t To Her"
What's Happening
Sunjay and Karisma's separation made headlines, especially due to the legal and personal battles that followed. Their divorce proceedings became contentious, with both parties making strong allegations against each other.
Karisma's father, actor Randhir Kapoor, also expressed disapproval of the marriage.
Karisma and Sunjay got married in 2003 in a lavish ceremony. The wedding took place at the actress's ancestral home, Krishna Raj bungalow, in Mumbai. While the marriage initially appeared to be a happy one, the couple filed for divorce by mutual consent in 2014.
The divorce proceedings took a turn when Karisma accused Sunjay of domestic violence. In response, Sunjay alleged that the actress had married him for financial gain.
As reported by Mumbai Mirror, he claimed that Karisma married him in a "calculated and clinical" manner. The situation escalated into a public exchange of accusations.
Reacting to the claims made by Sunjay, Karisma's father, Randhir Kapoor, said, "Everyone knows our credentials. We are Kapoors. We don't need to run after anyone's money. We have been blessed with not only money, but our talent can support us for the rest of our lives. Sunjay is a third-class man. I never wanted Karisma to marry him. He has debauchery in his system and never cared for his wife. He has been giving bull*** to her, and living with another woman without divorce. The entire Delhi knows how he is. I would not like to say anything more than this."
Eventually, both parties reached a settlement, and the divorce was finalised in 2016. As per Mid-Day, Karisma received a substantial alimony settlement.
The report stated, "Karisma will get Sunjay's father's house (in Khar) transferred in her name. Sunjay has to purchase bonds worth Rs. 14 crore for the children, which will attract a monthly interest of around Rs. 10 lakh."
Background
Initial reports cited a cardiac arrest as the cause of Sunjay Kapur's death. However, new reports suggest that the 53-year-old may have died due to complications caused by a bee sting incident.
According to reports, Sunjay was playing a game of polo when he collapsed. It has now emerged that during the game, he may have swallowed a bee, which stung him and triggered a severe allergic reaction. This reaction is believed to have caused the cardiac arrest.
Sunjay Kapur's personal life had often made headlines. His first marriage was to fashion designer Nandita Mahtani, which ended in divorce. He later married actress Karisma Kapoor. The couple had two children, Samaira and Kiaan, before getting divorced in 2016.
He later married former model and actress Priya Sachdev and welcomed a son, Azarius, in 2018.

Ranbir Kapoor left this legendary singer's biopic for Ramayana; Anurag Basu says it was a ‘tough choice'
Ranbir Kapoor is all set to take on the role of Lord Ram in Nitesh Tiwari's ambitious two-part epic Ramayana, releasing on Diwali 2026 and Diwali 2027. But the decision came at the cost of another major project — the long-awaited biopic on legendary singer Kishore Kumar, which has been in development for over a decade. Anurag Basu confirms Ranbir Kapoor's decision to prioritise Ramayana while expressing hope that the long-awaited Bollywood singer's biopic will proceed. It was very difficult choice for Ranbir, says Anurag Basu Director Anurag Basu, who was slated to direct the biopic, confirmed in a recent interview with BBC News that Ranbir had to choose between the two projects due to scheduling conflicts. 'Ranbir had a tough choice in life — Kishore Kumar or Ramayana. It was very difficult for him. In the end, he chose Ramayana, and I think it was the right decision,' said Basu. Ranbir and Basu have previously worked together on critically acclaimed films like Barfi (2012) and Jagga Jasoos (2017). Both have expressed a strong desire to collaborate again, but their packed schedules have made it difficult. 'We keep trying to work together, but it's just not happening,' Basu added. With Ranbir stepping away from the biopic, reports suggest that Aamir Khan is now being considered for the role of Kishore Kumar. However, Anurag remains cautious, stating to Mid-Day, 'Until everything is finalised and the contract is signed, I don't think I should speak on it. This project has seen many ups and downs over the years. So, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it happens this time and I go on set with the story, which I've been trying to tell for the last decade. I won't jinx it by speaking about it." Anurag Basu's latest Anurag Basu directed Metro... In Dino premiered theatrically on July 4 to positive responses for its ensemble cast and layered storytelling. Anurag's next film starring Kartik Aaryan and Sreeleela, tentatively titled Aashiqui 3, was originally aimed for Diwali 2025, but now looks more likely for early 2026, according to industry reports.

‘Pativrata' Kajol serves ‘lady-killer' Ajay Devgn food on set, Farah Khan reveals: ‘She's a completely different person around him'
Actors Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur appeared on Farah Khan's YouTube channel, where they promoted their new movie Son of Sardaar 2. The comedy sequel debuted in theatres on Friday, over a decade after the original. Ajay last major film was another sequel, Raid 2, which made nearly Rs 250 crore worldwide. Before that, he starred in Drishyam 2, which made over Rs 350 crore worldwide. Ajay also headlined the franchise-starter Shaitaan, which earned more than Rs 200 crore globally and inspired a spin-off titled Maa, starring Ajay's wife, Kajol. In the new video, Farah spoke about Kajol's visit to her house during the promotions of Maa, and remarked that Ajay hasn't ever come over, even though they've known each other since he was in college. She said, 'I've known Ajay since college, I was his senior. Girls used to go mad over him, even though he wasn't the conventionally handsome person. I've worked with many heroines who were fighting on the sets over him. They would literally hit each other with wigs. Ajay was a lady-killer. He was always the silent type. That was his modus operandi.' Also read – Kajol says Ajay Devgn's career changed after marriage, calls him only actor successful in every genre: 'Achi tarah se seekha ke nikaala hai maine unko' An embarrassed Ajay asked for a glass of water, and was left red-faced by Farah's comments. She spoke about the relationship that he has with Kajol, and said that she is not the same alone as she is when she's around him. 'Kajol is completely different when she's with him. Otherwise she's (loud) but I saw her on the Himmatwala set. She was very pativrata, putting food for him, very sweet,' Farah said, talking about her brother Sajid Khan's film Himmatwala. Joking about Maa, she added, 'You're producing movies for her only to keep her out of the house, aren't you?' Ajay replied, 'That's the goal.' Maa was released some weeks ago, and made Rs 51 crore worldwide. In a previous interview, Kajol had also joked that she prefers when Ajay is away for work. 'Ajay and I are completely different otherwise hum logo ko itne saal nahi lagte (it wouldn't have taken us so long), we would have separated long before. I say this quite often that the secret to happy marriage is partial deafness and selective amnesia. You really need to forget certain things about your partner and sometimes unhearing things they said. It is very important,' she told Mashable India. Previously, talking to Instant Bollywood, Kajol shared how she deals with Ajay's obsession with work and said, 'Sometimes I feel like, 'Acha hua 40 din ka outdoor hai', and sometimes I feel like, 'Damn, you should have been here for this'. I have got used to it now. He is very passionate about his work.' Kajol and Ajay Devgn are parents to a daughter, Nysa, and son, Yug.

BJP slams K'taka govt over schoolboy's kidnap-murder; HM says he has no info as yet
Bengaluru: The BJP on Friday launched an attack on the Karnataka government over the kidnapping and murder of a schoolboy in Bengaluru by his abductors, late on Thursday night. However, shockingly, Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara maintained on Friday that he had no information regarding the incident. The Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in the Karnataka Assembly, R. Ashoka, stated on Friday that, "Does there need to be an even bigger incident than this to prove that law and order has completely collapsed in the state?" He further stated, "A horrifying incident has shaken everyone — a 13-year-old boy, who was returning home after his tuition in Shantiniketan Layout, Arakere, Bengaluru, was kidnapped, a ransom was demanded, and eventually, his throat was slit and his dead body was burnt with petrol." "Home Minister G. Parameshwara — how many more lives must be lost before your department wakes up? What more tragedies need to occur?" Ashoka questioned. However, when questioned about the case, Karnataka Home Minister G. Parameshwara maintained in Bengaluru that he did not know about the incident. "When did the incident happen? I haven't got the information regarding the case yet," he stated. In a shocking development, a gang has allegedly kidnapped 13-year-old A. Nischal, murdered him, and burnt his body in the Hulimavu police station limits on the outskirts of Bengaluru late on Thursday night. Investigations revealed that the accused worked as drivers and were acquainted with the victim's mother. Knowing the family's background, they targeted the boy for ransom. After kidnapping him, they sent a message via WhatsApp demanding Rs 5 lakh. However, they later slit the boy's throat and set his body on fire to eliminate evidence. Nischal was a student of Christ School and used to attend tuition classes daily from 5 P.M. to 7.30 P.M. on 80 Feet Road in Arakere. On July 30, he did not return home till late and when his parents contacted the tuition teacher, they were informed that Nischal had left the centre at the usual time. During the search, the boy's bicycle was found near Arakere Family Park. His father, J.C. Achyut, subsequently filed a missing complaint at the Hulimavu police station. At around 8 P.M. on July 31, the family received a WhatsApp message stating that Nischal had been kidnapped and that Rs 5 lakh was demanded for his release. Taking the case seriously, the police formed four teams to trace the kidnappers. At around 5 P.M., they received information about a half-burnt body found in the forest area of Bilwaradahalli, within the Bannerghatta police station limits. The police rushed to the spot, and the boy's family confirmed his identity. Early on Friday, Bengaluru police solved the case and arrested the two accused after shooting them in the legs during an encounter. The official statement by the Bengaluru Police stated that the accused have been identified as 27-year-old Gurumurthy, a resident of Weavers Colony on Bannerghatta Road, and 27-year-old Gopi alias Gopala, a resident of Bannerghatta. Gurumurthy sustained gunshot injuries in both legs, while Gopi was shot in one leg. Both are currently admitted to Victoria Hospital in Bengaluru. Police Inspector Kumaraswamy B.G. and PSI Arvind Kumar, who were injured during the confrontation after being attacked by the accused, are also undergoing treatment at Victoria Hospital.
