This article is about the Bollywood actor Sanjay Kapoor. For the fictional EastEnders character see Sanjay Kapoor (EastEnders).

Sanjay Kapoor (born 17 October 1965 in Mumbai, India) is a Bollywood actor and the brother of actor Anil Kapoor and producer Boney Kapoor and brother-in-law of actress Sridevi. His sister Reena is married to Sandeep Marwah of Marwah Films & Video Studios and The Asian Academy of Film & Television. He is the son of Surinder Kapoor, who is also a film producer.

He began his career opposite Madhuri Dixit in the film Raja. The film was a box office success and he became a star overnight.

This was followed by many films which flopped or did reasonably well at the box office. Though not as successful as his brother, he has managed to get positive reviewes from the critics and audiences.

He has given excellent performances as a villain playing an obsessive husband to Esha Deol in Koi Mere Dil Se Poochhe. This was followed by another villainous role playing a terrorist in the film Qayamat: City Under Threat.
