Kapoor passed away on Thursday morning after a two-year-long battle with leukaemia, his family said in a statement. The actor  returned to India  last September after undergoing treatment for cancer in the US for almost a year.

Khan passed away at Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital on Wednesday due to colon infection. In March 2018, The Lunchbox actor first announced that he was suffering with a rare form of neuroendocrine cancer, following which he moved to abroad to seek treatment. He returned to Mumbai earlier this year.
