Priya Sachdev has modified her Instagram profile to reflect her new position at Sona Comstar, only days after being officially appointed to the board. The former model and entrepreneur are now named as a 'non-executive director' of the auto parts company previously led by her late husband, Sunjay Kapur. Her Instagram handle has also changed—from Priya Sachdev Kapur to Priya Sunjay Kapur.

Priya Sachdev's new position at Sona Comstar

The decision comes shortly after Sunjay's sudden death in a bizarre accident during a polo match in England, where he suffered a cardiac arrest after allegedly ingesting a bee. His last rites were held in New Delhi, attended by his ex-wife Karisma Kapoor. Since then, a highly public estate dispute has ensued, involving assets apparently worth thousands of crores.

Sunjay's mother, Rani Kapur, wrote a letter to the company's board, escalating tensions. In it, she said she was "compelled to sign various documents without explanation" and that "certain people" were attempting to represent themselves as the family's voice. Although she didn’t name anyone directly, the timing and context suggest her remarks were aimed at Priya.
