Sanjay Kapoor (Punjabi: ਸੰਜਯ ਕਪੂਰ; born 17 October 1965) is a Bollywood actor and producer.

Son of film producer, Surinder Kapoor, he is the younger brother of actor Anil Kapoor and producer Boney Kapoor and brother-in-law of actress Sridevi. Kapoor dated brain surgeon Hanna Eliasson for a short time before marrying Maheep Sandhu, an Indian from Perth, Australia.

Career[link]

He began his career opposite Tabu in the film Prem (1995).^[1]

It was Raja (1995) opposite Madhuri Dixit that brought him box office success. Though Raja was a hero-centric and successful film, Madhuri Dixit stole the show, and it did not bring many offers to Sanjay Kapoor. Critics and viewers called Raja out-and-out a Madhuri Dixit film and suggested that it should had been renamed Rani.

He has given critically acclaimed performances as a villain playing the obsessive, psychotic husband of Esha Deol in Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe which was a flop, and he played a terrorist in the film Qayamat: City Under Threat, which was also a semi hit.
