Supriya Pathak Kapur (born 7 January 1961) is an Indian actress who works in Gujarati and Hindi films and television. She garnered widespread recognition and acclaim with her portrayal of Hansa Parekh in the Khichdi franchise. She has received several awards, including a Filmfare OTT Award and three Filmfare Awards. She also featured in the hit TV serial Idhar Udhar in the 1980s.[1]

Younger daughter of actress Dina Pathak, she married her second husband, actor Pankaj Kapur in 1988, with whom she has a daughter and a son. Her sister is actress Ratna Pathak Shah, who is married to actor Naseeruddin Shah. Actor Shahid Kapoor is her stepson.

Early life[edit | edit source]

Supriya was born on 7 January 1961[2][3] to Kathiyawadi Gujarati theater artiste and veteran actor, Dina Pathak and a Punjabi father, Baldev Pathak, dressmaker to the stars Rajesh Khanna and Dilip Kumar.[4] She has one elder sister, Ratna Pathak, also a theater and film actor. She grew up in Parsi Colony in Dadar, Mumbai,[5] and attended the J. B. Vachha High School. She has a bachelor's degree in Fine art, specialising in Bharatanatyam, from the Nalanda Dance Research Centre, University of Mumbai.[5][6]

Career[edit | edit source]

Pathak's first foray into acting was under her mother's direction with the revival of the play Maina Gurjari, which Dina Pathak had acted in previously.[5] This was followed by a play with Dinesh Thakur titled Biwiyon Ka Madersa (based on a play by French playwright Molière), which was staged at the Prithvi Theatre. It was here that Jennifer Kendall (the late wife of Shashi Kapoor) spotted her and recommended her to Shyam Benegal for their home production Kalyug (1981), an adaptation of the epic Mahabharata. Her portrayal of Subhadra won her the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress. She then performed in Vijeta (1982), Bazaar (1982), Masoom (1983) and Mirch Masala (1985). She had a minor role in the biopic Gandhi (1982) and starred in the 1988 French film, The Bengali Night. She appeared in Raakh in 1989.[7] In 1985, she played the title role in Malayalam movie Akalathe Ambili.[8]

Her television roles include Idhar Udhar,[9] Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka, Khichdi, Baa Bahoo Aur Baby and Chanchan among others.[10]

In 1994, her husband, Pankaj Kapur and she launched their own TV production house, Grass Company. Mohandas B.A.L.L.B was the first serial they produced and acted in under the banner.[11]

After an 11-year hiatus from acting, she starred in the 2005 film Sarkar, followed by its sequel, Sarkar Raj in 2008. She portrayed a subservient mother who tries hard to fill the generation gap with her son in Wake Up Sid (2009). Filmfare magazine called her rendering of the sinister Dhankor Baa in 2013's Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela the "watershed of her career".[12] Carry On Kesar (2016) was her first Gujarati film.[13]

Personal life[edit | edit source]

Shahid Kapoor, Supriya Pathak, and Pankaj Kapur attend the screening of Teri Meri Kahaani

At 22, Pathak married,[4] but the couple separated within a year of marriage. In 1986, she met her second husband, Pankaj Kapur, while filming Agla Mausam (1989). After two years of courtship, they married in 1988 and are parents to a daughter, Sanah (born 1993), and a son, Ruhaan (born 1997). On 2 March 2022, her daughter Sanah Kapur married Mayank Pahwa, whereas in September 2023, her son Ruhaan Kapoor married Manukriti Pahwa, both siblings being children of actors Manoj Pahwa and Seema Bhargava Pahwa.[5]
