You won’t believe what Karisma Kapoor wrote in her first post after ex-husband Sunjay Kapur’s death
Bollywood’s much-loved actress Karisma Kapoor just turned a year wiser on June 25, and warm wishes poured in from fans and friends across the world. However, the celebration came under the shadow of a recent personal loss, the sudden death of her ex-husband, Sanjay Kapur, on June 12.
Karisma, who has two children with Sanjay, Samaira (19) and Kiaan (13), stood by her family during this difficult time. She was seen attending both the funeral and the prayer meet along with her children, supporting them quietly but firmly through the emotionally heavy days.
On Thursday, Karisma finally broke her silence and addressed the recent events. She shared a brief but poignant message on her Instagram stories, “Thank you all for your wishes and support,” followed by a folded hands emoji and a red heart.

This was her first public message following Sanjay Kapur’s passing — a note of gratitude amid personal grief.
About Sanjay Kapur’s death
Sanjay Kapur’s death was both sudden and tragic. The 57-year-old businessman reportedly died of a heart attack during a polo match in England. According to his close friend and industrialist Suhel Seth, Sanjay may have accidentally swallowed a bee during the game, which led to the fatal cardiac arrest.
About Sanjay Kapur and Karisma Kapoor’s marriage
Sanjay and Karisma got married in 2003, but their marriage faced rocky years and eventually ended with a mutual divorce petition in 2014. Their separation was finalised in 2016, but the couple continued to co-parent their children respectfully.

Karisma’s sister, Kareena Kapoor Khan, also took to social media to share a heartfelt birthday message for her sister, “This is my favourite picture of us… for the strongest and kindest girl in the universe. It’s been a tough year for us,” Kareena wrote, adding, “But you know… as they say, tough times don’t last… My sister, my mother, my best friend. Happy Birthday my Lolo.”
While Karisma marked her birthday with quiet dignity, the moment was a powerful reminder of resilience, love, and the strength of family bonds in the face of life’s uncertainties.
