Mumbai/IBNS: Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor's ex-husband and businessman Sunjay Kapur died of heart attack on Thursday.

He was 53.

As per reports, Sanjay passed away while playing polo.

Author and actor Suhel Seth confirmed the news on X saying, "Deeply saddened at the passing of @sunjaykapur: he passed away earlier today in England: a terrible loss and deepest condolences to his family and to his colleagues @sonacomstar…Om Shanti."

After the news emerged, Bollywood stars Kareena Kapoor Khan and Saif Ali Khan, who are Karisma's sister and brother-in-law respectively, rushed to the actress' residence late at night to support her.

Kareena and Saif, who were seen outside Karisma's residence, were seen in a sombre look as the Kapoor family grieves.

Actresses Malaika Arora and Amrita Arora, who are close friends of the Kapoor sisters, were also spotted reaching Karisma's place.

Karisma had tied the knot with Sunjay in 2003. The two reportedly sought a divorce in 2005.

Karisma, who was once a leading Bollywood actress, moved out of Sunjay's house in Delhi in 2010 and their divorce was finalised in June 2016.

She had moved out of his house when their younger son Kiaan was born. The two had filed for divorce in 2014.

Sunjay, who was the chairman of Soma Comstar, later married Priya Sachdev and the couple had a son.
