Sunday's sister Mandhira Kapur also shared an emotional post remembering the late businessman. She also expressed her grief of not talking to him for the last 4 years.
'My brother and I may not have spoken for the last 4 years, a silly sibling squabble escalated to crazy levels due to egos and natural bullishness, however, that will never take back what we were and what we had,' she wrote as she shared photos from their childhood.
She added, 'The phenomenal times we experienced, a privileged childhood of happiness with 2 wonderful parents, the secrets we would keep, the staying up late and sneaking out of the house even later, the stupid in-jokes that the 3 of us kept going for years, the hours of laughter we shared whilst others would stare at us in utter confusion. He always looked after me and my sister, a true big brother and a friend.'
'What happened towards the end has been both horrible and pointless, I will never have my moments with him again. We will never be us and it is devastating that we didn't fix what had become broken and so now my heart is the same. I am sure he knew despite our recent estrangement that I loved him and in my soul I am sure he shared the same hope as I, that one day we would be as amazing as we were for the first 47 years. Of this I am sure and take some small comfort. I miss my dear brother and to think I will never see him again in this life is a hard truth, I know he is now with Dad and one day we will all be together once more but it is not enough,' she added.
'Thank you to everyone for all of your condolences, sincere wishes and kind words. 🙏🏻,' she wrote.
She concluded by saying, 'To anyone and everyone who has fallen out with someone they love, be it family or friend, please learn from my story, life is fragile and delicate, each day is a gift, do not miss a day even an hour in some fickleness, you can never be assured that you will have the opportunity to repair the void and if you don't, then that's pretty much all that is left, coupled with regret. I would give anything to just see my bhaiya one last time and tell him how much I love him.'

Priya Sachdev called husband Sunjay Kapur ‘misunderstood'; said he took ‘hard decisions' after divorce with Karisma Kapoor: ‘He has been through so much'
Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband Sunjay Kapur's death while playing polo in London, United Kingdom, shocked many. The businessman was 53 years old. After parting ways with Karisma, Sunjay went on to marry Priya Sachdev, a socialite and model from Delhi. Now, an old interview of Priya has been doing the rounds, where she spoke about Sunjay and how he had to take many hard decisions after the death of his father and his divorce from Karisma. Talking about their relationship, she said on the YouTube channel Kin and Kindness, 'When we got together in 2015, he lost his father and suddenly a lot of responsibility fell on his shoulder and he was left alone with business, which was in Germany at the time.' Priya shared that Sunjay would discuss business with her and would bounce off ideas, so she is 'very much in the know.' She said, 'I do help him run the family office though and I have taken lot of investment decisions with him.' Priya opened up on Sunjay's journey and how he faced the pressure of taking over their family business after the death of his father – Surinder Kapur, who was a pioneer in India's auto components industry. She said, 'Sunjay's journey has been interesting as a father himself and then he lost his father, and he had to take over the business and turn it around, and he was going through a divorce at the same time. He has been through so much and we were together in it and now we have come out of it. He has become a very successful businessman.' Talking about what attracted her to Sunjay, she said, 'I found him very endearing, honest and misunderstood.' She added, 'He has been misunderstood but now he is very much respected in industry. His father was a legend in his space, and now he is filling his shoes, which makes us all very proud. He's also had to make harsh decisions and choices, and most of them have turned out well.' Talking about Sunjay's obsession with polo, Priya revealed that she and their kids move to England for some time during the year when Sunjay plays polo in the UK. She said, 'He is still passionate about Polo. We move with him to England every year during the Polo session where he plays professional Polo.' Karisma and Sunjay were married for 13 years before they parted ways in 2016. They had two kids — daughter Samaira and son Kiaan. Sunjay and Priya tied the knot in 2017. They have a son, Azarias, who was born in December 2018. Priya also has a daughter from her previous marriage.
