In a poignant tribute, the final photo he ever posed for was released by the team he had played against before his death in a touching Instagram post. Sunjay was beaming in the image, as he stood hugging Jaisal Singh - the captain of Sujan Indian Tigers, reports the Mirror. "Today we play the final of the Cartier Trophy in the memory of our dear friend Sunjay Kapur who tragically passed away on the field a few days ago," the Sujan Indian Tigers post read. "Our Captain and Patron, Jaisal Singh, will mount up with the team to observe a minute's silence in honour of his dear old friend Sunjay, and then sit out as a mark of respect," they added. "This photograph of Sunjay and Jaisal was taken moments before they mounted up to play the semi-finals a few days ago." They rounded off the touching tribute by saying, "RIP Sunjay; you will be missed - your tireless enthusiasm and patronage will be remembered forever by the entire polo community." The Aureus team penned a heartfelt tribute to Sunjay, saying: "The Aureus team are all in total and utter shock. Sunjay – you were the life and soul of the Aureus Team – you were a true inspiration and that legacy will remain forever." Despite his privileged upbringing, Sunjay carved out a successful career for himself, turning his business into a key player in the electric vehicle sector. His prowess on the polo field saw him rubbing shoulders with high society and even royalty. His participation in a polo match with Prince William stirred controversy during his first marriage to Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, who accused him of neglecting their sick infant son to play the game with the future monarch. "(Sunjay) decided to carry on, leaving me behind to take care of our sick four-month-old son, just to play a Polo match with Prince William. I also realised that he had married me only because I was a famous and successful film star, which would facilitate him to be reported in the press. "It came as a surprise that he always wanted to be known in public and be famous, but since he never did any deed worth mentioning, he was not able to garner any attention," Kapoor revealed about her ex-husband. Tragically, while playing polo, it is believed that Kapur was stung by a bee in his mouth, which may have led to anaphylactic shock and ultimately caused his heart to stop.
