Bhopal:
Actor Sharad Kapoor, who once earned recognition in Bollywood for his powerful performances, is back in the spotlight. Known for playing the antagonist in Shah Rukh Khan’s film Josh, the actor has recently attracted attention after a video of him walking with the support of a walker surfaced on social media. His changed appearance has left fans concerned.
Sustains Injury While Playing Football
Sharad Kapoor revealed that he suffered a crack in a bone in his leg while playing football, making it difficult for him to walk. Due to his physical condition and family circumstances, he was also unable to look after his four pet dogs. He therefore decided to send them to an animal welfare centre temporarily. The actor appeared emotional while discussing the decision and expressed hope that he would soon be able to bring his pets back home.
Planning a Return to Acting in January
After staying away from films for a considerable period, Kapoor is now keen to resume his acting career. He has indicated that he hopes to start working again from January. Apart from films, he is also exploring opportunities on OTT platforms. The actor said he needs work and moral support more than financial assistance at this stage.
Married Jyoti Basu’s Granddaughter
Kapoor’s personal life has also attracted public attention. In 2008, he married Koel Basu, the granddaughter of former West Bengal Chief Minister Jyoti Basu.
Sexual Harassment Allegations in 2024
In November 2024, a woman accused the actor of inappropriate behaviour and sexual harassment. Mumbai Police registered a case following the complaint and initiated an investigation. Kapoor denied the allegations, describing them as false and baseless. In February 2026, reports also emerged that the complainant had approached the Bombay High Court seeking the transfer of the investigation to the Crime Branch. The allegations have not been established as proven facts by a court.
For now, Kapoor’s priorities are recovering from his injury and finding his way back into the entertainment industry.
