The Kapoor family stayed silent. Bollywood insiders called it a “mutual decision.” But now, Sunjay Kapur’s mother has stepped forward — and what she’s saying could rewrite everything we thought we knew…

Mumbai — Just when we thought the storm had passed, the Karisma Kapoor–Sunjay Kapur saga has been reignited — not by the stars themselves, but by someone who had been watching from the shadows all along: Sunjay Kapur’s mother, Rani Kapur.

In a startling and emotionally charged statement, the rarely-seen matriarch has made claims that have left both Bollywood and social media in utter disbelief.

“My son was painted as the villain,” she said in an exclusive (and unexpected) voice note leaked through a close family friend.
“But no one asked what really happened behind closed doors.”

And just like that — a new layer of drama has unfolded around one of Bollywood’s most talked-about divorces.

A Marriage That Made Headlines… And Ended With Silence

Karisma Kapoor, member of the iconic Kapoor film dynasty, and Sunjay Kapur, Delhi-based industrialist, were once one of the most high-profile couples in Indian celebrity circles.

They married in 2003 in a grand ceremony. But behind the glitz, things reportedly went south fast. By 2016, the marriage officially ended — but neither side spoke publicly in detail.

Until now.

“She Was Never Happy With Him,” Rani Claims

In her leaked audio, Rani Kapur states:

“From the beginning, she didn’t want to move to Delhi. She missed her celebrity life, the attention. She kept one foot in Bollywood and the other in our house — and that never works in a marriage.”

She also alleged that Karisma refused to adapt to the “family values” expected of a traditional Kapoor daughter-in-law and claimed she “weaponized” the children during the custody battle.

The most shocking moment? When Rani said:

“There were times Sunjay would come to me crying — saying, ‘Mom, no matter what I do, I’m always wrong.’ He tried. He begged her to stay.”

Karisma’s Silence Speaks Louder… Or Does It?

So far, Karisma Kapoor has not responded publicly to the claims. But sources close to her say she is “deeply disturbed” by the sudden reopening of old wounds.

“She has always protected her children from this circus,” a friend of Karisma’s told a leading magazine. “This new development is not only unnecessary — it’s damaging.”

Why Now? Why Speak Out After So Many Years?

The timing has raised eyebrows. Sunjay Kapur has since remarried — to Priya Sachdev — and Karisma has gracefully moved on with her career and children.

But some insiders speculate that ongoing tensions over family assets, or custody adjustments, may have sparked the elder Kapur’s decision to go public.

And there’s one more twist.

In the same leaked audio, Rani allegedly hinted at a private journal Karisma used to keep — one which, she claims, contains confessions that would “shock the public”.

So… is this just an emotional outburst? Or is there truly more to the Karisma–Sunjay story than we ever imagined?

What Comes Next?

With no official response from the Kapoor family yet, and Sunjay Kapur reportedly refusing interviews, the internet is left to debate — and speculate.

One thing’s for sure:
This story isn’t over.

And if Rani Kapur’s claims continue to leak…
It might just be the beginning of the next great Bollywood controversy
