Famous businessman and Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband, Sunjay Kapur, passed away last week. Sunjay Kapur died of a heart attack during a polo match in England on June 12, and the cause of the heart attack was said to be a bee that entered his mouth while playing.
Meanwhile, an old interview of Sunjay Kapur's third wife, Priya Sachdev, is going viral, in which she talked about her relationship with Sunjay and Karisma Kapoor's children – Samaira Kapoor and Kiaan Kapoor. Speaking on the YouTube channel Kin and Kindness, Priya talked about Sunjay's first marriage to Karisma and said that Sunjay would often travel from Delhi to Mumbai, where Karisma and their children lived. She recalled that she met Sunjay on a flight. The two became friends and later got married. Sunjay Kapur's third wife revealed shocking details about his marriage
Priya Sachdev said, 'Sunjay's first marriage was not conventional. He has two beautiful children from that marriage. We love them very much and today we are a beautiful blended family.' Priya said that after her marriage to Sunjay, her daughter, Safira from her first husband, Vikram Chatwal started living with her. Recalling that time, she admitted that it was not easy in the beginning.
Priya said, 'It wasn't easy because Sunjay would say these are the rules of my house, and Safira should follow them, and I told him to talk to her himself and build his relationship, which he did. Now they have a very loving relationship, and they are very close.'
Explaining the dynamics of her household, Priya said, 'We have four children – the eldest is Samaira, then Safira, Kian, and mine and Sunjay's son Azaarius. It's a blended family.' Priya Sachdev's bond with Sunjay Kapur's ex-wife Karisma Kapoor
Talking about her bond with Karisma's kids, Priya said, 'When my son Azaarius was born, he became the connecting link for our family. Both our daughters, Samaira and Safira, are very close. We all have learnt to love each other and in our hearts. We talk about all kinds of things – fun, light-hearted and serious. We have a bond.'
During the conversation, Priya also talked about Sunjay's passion for polo. She said that when Sunjay played polo in England, she and her children would go there for a few months of the year.
She said, 'He is still very passionate about polo. He plays professional 22-goal polo in England. So, as a family, we moved there, and coincidentally, my daughter's boarding school is just 15 minutes away from there. We have put my younger son in two different schools. He has to study in different schools in India and England. Then we come back here as a family because our business is here.'

Sunjay Kapur's Wife Priya Sachdev Recalls Painful First Marriage: ‘My Ex In-Laws Apologised To Me'
Last Updated: Priya Sachdev Kapur opened up about how she believed she had found the perfect match with Vikram Chatwal but ignored red flags early on. Priya Sachdev Kapur, wife of the late Sunjay Kapur, recently broke her silence on her emotionally difficult first marriage with American hotelier Vikram Chatwal. Her interview with Kin and Kindness on YouTube has gone viral days after Sunjay Kapur passed away in London on June 12 at the age of 53. According to reports, Sunjay Kapur, who was previously married to Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, suffered a fatal heart attack after reportedly swallowing a bee during a polo match. In the interview, Priya opened up about how she believed she had found the perfect match with Chatwal but ignored red flags early on. 'My ex-husband ticked all the boxes… He went to Wharton, worked at Morgan Stanley. I did mathematics at UCLA, a double major with UCLA and LSE… So I thought this is a perfect match," she said, adding, 'You know how you do your career path, but it doesn't always work. I thought I had it all right… but I guess I chose wrong." Priya revealed she realised something was off early in the marriage, especially after becoming pregnant. 'When I had her and I realised, a few 15 to 20 weeks into my pregnancy, I realised this marriage is not right. But I still continued to make this work," she shared. Five years into the marriage, she chose to walk away for her and her daughter's well-being. She emotionally recalled the support she received during the separation. 'My ex-in-laws called me apologising… I wasn't valued or appreciated for the sacrifices I made. That was one victory." Priya also fought a long custody battle and emerged victorious. 'The divorce wasn't easy, but I won those," she added. Priya further spoke about reclaiming her peace of mind, 'The voices in my head didn't bother me anymore… When I controlled the voices in my head, I looked at life differently."

Diljit Dosanjh's Sardaar Ji 3 Gets Pakistan Release; Indian Fans Outraged: 'This Is Shameful'
Last Updated: The decision to release the movie, co-starring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, in Pakistan has sparked massive outrage online, with Diljit's Indian fans calling the move 'shameful'. In a move that has left fans across India shocked and disappointed, Diljit Dosanjh's upcoming Punjabi film Sardaar Ji 3 is set to release in Pakistan on June 27, despite ongoing tensions between the two nations. The decision to release the movie, co-starring Pakistani actress Hania Aamir, in Pakistan has sparked massive outrage online, with Diljit's Indian fans calling the move 'shameful" and 'disrespectful," especially in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack in April this year, where 26 innocent civilians were killed. Screenshots of theatre listings from Pakistani cities like Lahore, Karachi, Islamabad, Faisalabad and Sialkot have now gone viral on social media, confirming that Sardaar Ji 3 will have a full-fledged theatrical run across the border. The controversy has prompted not just from the film's release but also from the casting of Hania Aamir at a time when Indian film bodies have taken a hard stance against working with Pakistani artists. The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE), which has historically protested such collaborations, reiterated its demand for a ban on Pakistani talent after the recent terror attack. The film's trailer is also not accessible in India. Users attempting to watch it on YouTube are met with the message: 'This video is not available in your country." Despite the uproar, the producers released a statement claiming that the film had been shot 'well before the prevailing situation," and that Hania was cast before the Pahalgam tragedy. 'We had decided not to release the film or any of its promotional content in India until the situation becomes opportune," the statement read, describing the decision as one made out of 'solidarity" with the country. But fans aren't buying it. Diljit, who commands a massive fan base in India and overseas, is being called out for continuing to promote the film while remaining silent on the backlash. Instagram comment sections on his recent posts are flooded with disappointment. 'Shame on you, Diljit," wrote one user. 'Boycott Sardaar Ji 3," said another. A third added, 'Country first. You lost a fan today." This has opened a fresh debate about celebrity accountability in times of national distress. Actor Suniel Shetty recently took a strong stance supporting the ban on Pakistani artists, saying, 'Art and cricket can't happen with people who kill our innocents." Similarly, actor Harshvardhan Rane decided to exit the upcoming Sanam Teri Kasam 2 over the possible inclusion of Pakistani actress Mawra Hocane. The producers eventually confirmed her removal from the cast, bowing to the growing public sentiment. In stark contrast, Diljit's continued association with Sardaar Ji 3 and his support for its overseas release even in Pakistan has upset many. What's added more fuel to the fire is that the film doesn't just feature Hania Aamir but several other Pakistani actors, including Nasir Chinyoti, Daniel Khawar, and Saleem Albela, are also part of the ensemble. Directed by Amar Hundal, Sardaar Ji 3 is a horror-comedy that revolves around ghost hunters (played by Diljit and Hania) tackling supernatural events in a haunted UK mansion. Neeru Bajwa also stars in a pivotal role. In his first comment on the issue, Diljit told BBC Asian Network, 'Jab yeh film bani thi, tab sab theek tha… Producers ka paisa laga hua hai… Film bann chuki thi before tensions started." He added that he supports the producers' decision to release it overseas, acknowledging the financial risks they face. FWICE has now urged the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) to deny a release certificate to Sardaar Ji 3, claiming that the film goes 'against national interest." While the film may be finding screens in foreign markets, its rejection in its home country by both institutions and fans sends a loud and clear message. The incident has raised some urgent questions – Can art really remain apolitical in the face of terrorism? Should filmmakers and stars be more conscious of the broader national implications of their decisions? It remains to be seen whether Diljit will break his silence and confront the backlash head-on or if the controversy will continue to snowball. First Published:

Overwatch 2 players pay tribute to Mikayla Raines who died by suicide
The Overwatch 2 community is mourning the death of YouTuber Mikayla Raines. The news was confirmed by her husband, Ethan Raines. Ethan, on June 23, uploaded a video to YouTube channel explaining that his wife had taken her life after being harassed online. He said, 'They consistently spread ridiculous claims and rumors, and being the sensitive human that she was, Mikayla took it all to heart, adding it hurt her a lot. For years, she pushed through the pain of people trying to bring her down. But this time, it went too far.' Mikayla Raines had launched Save A Fox Rescue in 2017, an animal rescue nonprofit based in Lakeville, Minnesota, when she was just 20 years old. The organisation focuses on saving foxes from fur farms and finding them permanent homes and, as per its website, has rescued over 150 foxes. The internet has been paying tribute to Raines on her tragic demise. Shortly after news of Raines' death, the Overwatch 2 community had their attention turned to a 2024 Facebook post from SaveAFox. 'Did you know that in Overwatch 2, Kiriko's fox spirit features the sounds of your favorite SaveAFox foxes?' they said. The resurgence of this post took the OW2 fandom by storm, with many learning about Mikayla and her story. 'This news hit me like a truck. I didn't know her foxes voiced the Kitsune, my heart broke even more now. I'd like to think she found peace that the people that pushed her into this decision will never find,' someone else chimed in. So far, Blizzard has yet to address Raines' death, and it's unclear if they plan to add an in-game item as tribute to her. Mikayla Raines was a YouTuber who founded SaveAFox Rescue. According to reports, Mikayla Raines took her life after prolonged online harassment. SaveAFox Rescue is an animal rescue nonprofit based in Lakeville, Minnesota, that was founded by Mikayla Raines in 2017.
