Following Sunjay Kapur’s death, his mother Rani Kapur accused unnamed individuals - widely believed to include Priya Sachdev Kapur - of coercion.

Priya Sachdev Kapur, a businesswoman and former model, is once again in the public eye - this time over a growing dispute within the powerful 

Kapur family following the sudden death of her husband, industrialist Sunjay Kapur. As controversy surrounds control of the ₹30,000-crore Sona Group, here are five key facts about her:

Priya holds a degree in mathematics and business management from University College London and began her professional life in M&A at Credit Suisse First Boston in London.

She returned to India to lead several businesses and co-founded Rock N Shop, one of India’s early luxury e-commerce platforms. She is also the director at Aureus Investment and a non-executive director at Sona Comstar.

She briefly entered the entertainment industry in the early 2000s, appearing in ads (including one with Kareena Kapoor) and played a supporting role in the 2005 film Neal ’n’ Nikki.

Her first marriage to American hotelier Vikram Chatwal ended in divorce after a custody battle. In 2017, she married Sunjay Kapur, ex-husband of actress Karisma Kapoor.
