The death of businessman Sunjay Kapur , former husband of actress Karisma Kapoor , sent shockwaves through both the business and film worlds. But amidst the flood of public mourning, one voice stood out — that of his sister, Mandhira Kapur , who shared an emotional and deeply personal note that resonated with many.Sunjay Kapur died on June 12, 2025, following a tragic accident during a polo match in England. A bee sting in his windpipe reportedly triggered a fatal cardiac arrest, cutting short the life of the 53-year-old chairman of Sona Comstar . The incident stunned not only his family but also his wide network of colleagues and admirers.Yet, the spotlight moved briefly from the businessman's career to the raw grief of a sister who wished she had one more moment, one more conversation, with her brother. After her brother's death, Mandhira Kapur took to Instagram and shared a series of heartwarming childhood pictures — snapshots of simpler times, filled with love, laughter, and sibling mischief.But the photos weren't the centerpiece. It was the long note she wrote — an unfiltered outpouring of emotion that laid bare a relationship that had frayed over time, and the irreversible pain of not mending it in time.Mandhira opened up about the sad reality that she and Sunjay had not spoken for four years due to a sibling squabble that escalated beyond repair. She described how small disagreements and ego clashes turned into a chasm that neither side could bridge. Her post wasn't just about mourning his loss — it was about confronting regret, loss, and the painful finality that death brings to unresolved relationships.In her reflection, Mandhira didn't shy away from acknowledging the distance that had grown between them. Yet, she made it clear that the love, the memories, and the bond they shared since childhood were untouched by the fallout. Her words recalled a privileged and joyful upbringing with their sister Superna, under the care of two doting parents. She reminisced about the silly jokes, the late-night sneak-outs, and the deep bond that only siblings can understand — the kind that makes others feel like outsiders to their private world of shared history and inside jokes.Amid the nostalgia, there was also a painful awareness that the recent years of silence had robbed them of precious time. What hurt the most, Mandhira admitted, was knowing that there would be no chance now to heal the wounds, no opportunity to return to what they once had. Her heart, she said, now bore the same brokenness that had crept into their relationship — only this time, it was permanent.Despite the estrangement, Mandhira expressed hope that Sunjay had always known she loved him, and she believed he too harbored the same hope — that they would one day reconcile, laugh again, and be the siblings they once were. That hope, however, never got its moment.In the same post, she extended a heartfelt message to everyone reading — urging people to reach out to their loved ones before it's too late. Her story, though deeply personal, carried a universal message: life is fragile, and relationships are more delicate than we think. Holding on to grudges, giving in to pride, or waiting for 'the right time' can often leave us with only regret when the chance to make things right disappears forever, she said.Mandhira's post quickly resonated with people across the internet — not just because of who she was or who Sunjay was, but because her pain reflected a deeply human experience. Her courage to speak vulnerably about regret struck a chord with those who had loved and lost — especially those with unresolved endings.Sunjay's last rites were held last week at the Lodhi Road Cremation Ground in New Delhi. The ceremony was attended by his ex-wife Karisma Kapoor and their children, Samaira and Kiaan, as well as his current wife Priya Sachdev. Karisma's sister, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and brother-in-law Saif Ali Khan, were also present to offer their support.Sunjay's sudden death left a vacuum, not just within his family, but also within the automotive industry, where he had taken over his father Dr. Surinder Kapur's business legacy in 2015. Under his leadership, Sona Comstar rose to global prominence. Known for his passion for polo, he balanced his corporate life with sport and was known to be close to international circles, including British royalty.After the prayer meet, Mandhira shared a selfie that stood in stark contrast to the grief around her — a rare photo capturing joy, togetherness, and light. It showed her, Sunjay, and Superna smiling.

While the official lineup is yet to enter the show, one name is already making waves online. Zak Srakaew has social media buzzing thanks to his striking looks and that unavoidable British accent. Even before stepping foot in the villa, Zak is turning heads. His Instagram (@zakyeah) has caught the attention of Love Island watchers, and he's already being called one to keep an eye on.

Casa Amor is one of the most anticipated twists in Love Island. It separates the boys and girls into two villas and introduces a fresh group of bombshells to tempt the islanders. This time, the girls will be moving out while new boys step in to shake things up with the guys. At the end of the twist, islanders have to decide whether to stick with their original partner or couple up with someone new. It's often messy, unpredictable, and emotional, so fans are always excited about it. Who is Zak Srakaew, the new bombshell set to enter the house? Six boys and five girls are about to enter the villa as new bombshells, but Zak has already been pegged as one of this season's standout. He's originally from Thailand but grew up in Manchester, and his polished look and calm confidence are already drawing comparisons to past fan favourites. Viewers are curious to see whether he's entering with serious intentions or just to stir the pot. Interestingly, this isn't Zak's first time on reality TV.
