'Prince William's billionaire friend': How US, UK media reported Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband Sanjay Kapur's death
To Bollywood audiences, Sunjay Kapur, who died on Thursday, may have been Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband, but to the wider international community, he was much more - an industrialist, a polo player, and a friend of royalty. The international media also reported Sunjay's death, but their focus was largely on his businesses and links to royalty, rather than the Bollywood connection. (Also read: Sunjay Kapur's funeral to be held in Delhi, but legal hurdle in getting body back to India) Sunjay Kapur died after suffering a heart attack while he was in the middle of a polo match in London on Thursday. The 53-year-old was a regular in the polo circles of the UK, which is how he came to be associated with Prince William. The Prince of Wales has been described as a friend of the late businessman. The New York Post's headline about Sunjay's death read: "Prince William's billionaire pal Sunjay Kapur dead after swallowing bee during polo match". People Magazine also focused on Sunjay's friendship with William and the bizarre reported nature of his death. "Prince William's friend dies after swallowing a bee at Windsor polo match," read their headline. The New York Times, however, highlighted his marriage to Karisma. Their headline read: "Sunjay Kapur, businessman and ex-husband of Bollywood star, dies at 53." Most British publications also mentioned Prince William in their reportage of the billionaire businessman's death. "Billionaire friend of Prince William dies from heart attack after 'swallowing a bee'," wrote the Daily Mail. Similarly, the Telegraph reported, "Billionaire friend of Prince of Wales dies after 'swallowing a bee'." Sunjay Kapur was the chairman of auto components maker Sona Comstar. After taking over as managing director of the company after his father's death in 2015, Sunjay spearheaded its expansion into China, Mexico, Serbia and the U.S. As per Bloomberg, Sona Comstar has a market cap of ₹31000 crore (nearly $4 billion). According to Forbes, Sunjay Kapur had a net worth of $1.2 billion ( ₹10300 crore) at the time of his death. The London-based Indian business tycoon had been married to Karisma Kapoor from 2003-16. The two have two children. Sunjay was previously married to fashion designer and stylist and Nandita Mahtani from 1996-2000. Since 2017, he had been married to model-turned-actor Priya Sachdev, with whom he had a son.

Aamir Khan reveals he refused to edit 'Dangal' for Pakistan release; was asked to remove Indian flag and national anthem
Aamir Khan is ready to return to the big screen with his much-awaited film 'Sitaare Zameen Par'. But before that, many of his fans would remember that when 'Dangal' was released in 2016, it became one of Aamir Khan's biggest hits. While the film was praised across the world, it was never released in Pakistan . Now, years later, the actor has finally revealed the reason why. Why 'Dangal' was not released in Pakistan During a recent appearance on Aap Ki Adalat, Aamir opened up about the real reason behind 'Dangal' not being released in Pakistan. He revealed that the Pakistani censor board had made an unusual request. 'When the film was released, Disney was one of the producers; they presented it. Pakistan's censor had asked them to remove the Indian flag and the Indian national anthem from the scene where Geeta Phogat wins a match. They said they won't release this film unless this is done,' the 'PK' actor said. The producers were worried that skipping the Pakistan release could hurt the film's earnings. But Aamir made his decision instantly — and stood firm on it. The 'Rang De Basanti' actor further added, 'Within a second, I told them that our film will not be released in Pakistan. I did not want to think about it either. They said this might impact our business. I said, 'I have no interest if somebody asks me to remove our national flag and national anthem . I do not want this.' Despite not releasing in Pakistan, 'Dangal' went on to become a massive blockbuster across the world. It not only dominated the Indian box office but also broke records internationally. According to Sacnilk, 'Dangal' achieved a staggering worldwide collection of Rs 2070.3 crore, making it one of the highest-grossing Indian films. Aamir's next film: 'Sitaare Zameen Par' After taking time away from films, Aamir Khan is now all set to return with 'Sitaare Zameen Par', which hits theatres on 20 June 2025. This film, directed by R. S. Prasanna, is a sports comedy-drama where Aamir plays a fun and confident coach. 'Sitaare Zameen Par' stars Genelia Deshmukh alongside Aamir and introduces ten new actors to Hindi cinema. These include Aroush Datta, Samvit Desai, Rishi Shahani, Simran Mangeshkar and others.

"Not easy, they come from a lot of struggles": Zoya Akhtar, Ayesha Sood explore lives of trans, non-binary individuals in 'In Transit'
By Ila Sankrityayan New Delhi [India], June 14 (ANI): Be it a school educator from Tripura or a classical musician from Bengaluru, the four-part documentary series 'In Transit' gives a sneak peek into the lives of nine individuals who live beyond the gender binary and are ready to go through hardships to fulfill their dreams. Each character is at a distinct level in their journey, confronting and challenging societal norms. Produced by Zoya Akhtar and Reema Kagti under the banner of Tiger Baby, the four-part docuseries is directed by Ayesha Sood. The project explores the lives of trans and non-binary individuals navigating love, identity, and the boundaries of gender in a uniquely Indian way. In a conversation with ANI, producer Zoya Akhtar and director Ayesha Sood got candid about the series and shared the challenges of making 'In Transit' Zoya shared that the genesis of the series traces back to the positive response to 'Made in Heaven': 'The idea came, actually, after when we started doing Made in Heaven, the first season of Made in Heaven, we got a lot of support from the LGBT community and a lot of love from them. And then the next season, we had a character called Meher, which was played by Trinetra Haldar Gummaraju. And that was a trans woman character. While we were writing it, we realised we knew very little. So we did extensive interviews with about six women. And just their candour, the way they were so candid, the way they shared, and we realised how little we knew of these experiences. And they were from all over India. I just felt that this needs to be explored more. Lucky for us, our partners were Amazon Prime. And when I pitched this to them, they just went for it. So then we got Ayesha on who curated, she wanted to cover in this docuseries. And that's how it started.' 'In Transit' is an unfiltered insight into the lives of nine people who live beyond the gender binary. The series features real-life stories of courage, vulnerability, and resistance from people around the country, including a young educator living in a reserve forest, a classical musician from Bangalore, and a corporate hotshot in Mumbai. Talking about the research work and bringing all the stories together, director Ayesha shared, 'We did very deep research for about a year and a half. And through that time, we went through, like, from history to mythology to politics to understanding all the concerns of what it means to be trans in this country. And through that process, we made a long list and sort of filtered down ideas and thoughts of the story, and then came down to a final nine. So, you know, different stories and different perspectives and but also, you know, make them universal in that we are talking about, you know, identity and love and family. So these are also universal themes. So that's kind of broadly how we came to our characters.' About the challenges of bringing them on camera to share their stories, Sood added, 'Through the time that we were doing our research with the team, we started to sort of have conversations and build a relationship with these characters. We spoke with them, we did online interviews, we sent people and went and met them like one-on-one, no cameras. So I think the key thing here was to build this over time. And by the time they came to the camera, they knew us. So they were comfortable with us, and they trusted us. I think it was tough for a lot of them. These are not easy stories. They come from a lot of battles and struggles with people close to them and people in their lives. So I don't think it's easy for them at all.' Referring to the story of a school educator in Tripura, Ayesha said, 'Sid, who comes from Tripura, actually has a very complicated and tough story and runs away from home and had to be rescued with this conversation, this story that happened with his partner because there was another abduction involved. And we actually found Sid through a local sort of help NGO, an NGO in Kolkata. And they had rescued Sid and his partner from this traumatic night and evening. Our research team had somebody who knew of this, of this NGO and through them, we found this story. So it was like, I mean, I think it was like amazing that we were able to make these links with networks across India, like people who worked in the field, worked with trans individuals who could help us find these characters.' Transgenders face different challenges including social exclusion, discrimination, unemployment, lack of educational facilities and others. The director talked about their acceptance in society and how, through the series, she hopes to bring a change. 'I think people change and societies change when they experience things that move them and you'll see through the series also, there are some people who are accepting and there are some people who are not accepting and some families that do and some families that don't. So, I don't think it's, you look at the society as one block, you know, has society changed or it hasn't changed but things like 'In Transit' are what is going to help people change. You see it in your living room with family, with other people that you know and hopefully that sparks a conversation and a dialogue within that living room, you know, and changes something there.' On talking about the challenges of making the project, Zoya shared, 'For me, it was not challenging at all. Reema and me wanted a director that would actually not be manipulative, would actually not want to do something that would be,.. shocking or trying to attract attention in a way that we didn't want and Ayesha was the first name that came to both of us because there's a certain empathy, there's a certain understanding, there's a certain compassion, there's a certain analytical brain, there's a certain she just ticked all the boxes. Then Ayesha came on, honestly, we, for us, it was jam. We really didn't have any struggle.' Ayesha agreed and said, 'Filmmaking is chaotic and complicated and has many moving parts, but this wasn't a struggle for any of us. The struggle was for our characters, you know, them coming out, telling us their stories. They had to be involved in our process from beginning to end, you know, like give up parts of their life to us, whether it's photographs or introduce us to their worlds. So I think the struggles lay with them, you know, like for us, it wasn't a struggle.' 'In Transit' is out on Prime Video. (ANI)
