Sanjay Kapur, former husband of Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, has passed away. According to sources, legal procedures could delay his funeral as Sanjay Kapur was reportedly a United States citizen, which adds layers of formalities before the final rites can be conducted in India.
🔹 Why Legal Delays?
- As Sanjay held US citizenship, any death involving a foreign national in India requires multiple approvals — from the consulate, local police, and government authorities.
- Until these procedures are cleared, the funeral arrangements cannot proceed.
- No official statement has been issued by the family yet.
🔹 Background:
- Sanjay Kapur was a businessman and was married to Karisma Kapoor in 2003.
- Their marriage ended in divorce in 2016.
- The couple has two children — Samaira and Kiaan.
🔹 Funeral Timeline Uncertain
- With consular involvement and documentation required for repatriation or cremation of a US citizen, such cases typically take a few days to resolve.
- The final date and location of the funeral remain undecided as of now.
