Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor was seen stepping out for the first time following the sudden demise of her former husband, businessman Sunjay Kapur. The actress, who has largely maintained a low profile in recent days, was spotted at the Mumbai airport along with her children, Samaira and Kiaan, as they made their way to Delhi to attend the funeral and pay their final respects.
According to sources close to the family, Karisma was visibly somber as she departed for the national capital, reflecting the emotional weight of the moment. Despite their separation years ago, Karisma remained cordial with Sunjay for the sake of their children, who were close to their father. The children, especially, are believed to be deeply affected by the loss.
Sunjay Kapur, a well-known businessman and the Chairman of Sona Group, passed away unexpectedly, leaving behind a legacy in the corporate world and a complex personal history that remained under the media spotlight for years. His untimely demise has come as a shock to many from both the business and film fraternities.
Karisma and Sunjay had tied the knot in 2003, but the marriage faced numerous ups and downs before they officially parted ways in 2016. The couple was involved in a long-drawn-out legal battle over their divorce and custody arrangements, which eventually ended with Karisma receiving primary custody of their children.
Despite their differences, Karisma had never publicly spoken ill of Sunjay after their separation, choosing instead to focus on her children and career. Her decision to travel to Delhi for his funeral along with the kids highlights the dignity and grace with which she has handled the situation.
Fans and well-wishers have been sending messages of strength and support to the Kapoor family during this difficult time. The film industry too has expressed condolences, acknowledging that while Sunjay was no longer part of Karisma’s life, he remained the father of her children—a role she always respected.
The last rites will be held in Delhi with close friends, family members, and business associates expected to attend.
