The Audi Q7 continues to be a highly popular choice among the film industry's elite. Pankaj Kapur now joins a long list of Bollywood A-listers who drive this model, including Kriti Sanon, Sanjay Dutt, John Abraham, Varun Dhawan, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor, and Yami Gautam. The SUV's blend of sophistication, performance, and practicality makes it a top pick for stars.
Luxury and Power: What Makes the Audi Q7 Special
The luxury SUV that Kapur purchased comes with a hefty price tag, reportedly ranging between Rs. 86.14 lakh and Rs. 95.03 lakh (ex-showroom). It is packed with features designed for supreme comfort and advanced technology, making it suitable for daily use.
Key highlights of the vehicle include:
- quattro all-wheel drive for superior traction.

- Audi Drive Select system offering multiple driving modes.
Under the hood, it boasts a powerful 3.0-litre turbo-petrol V6 engine that generates an impressive 340 PS of power and 500 Nm of torque. This engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic gearbox. The performance figures are equally striking, with the SUV capable of reaching a top speed of 250 kmph and accelerating from 0 to 100 kmph in just 5.6 seconds.
Pankaj Kapur: A Glimpse into His Personal and Professional Life
Beyond the glamour of a new car, Pankaj Kapur's life is marked by a strong and enduring family bond. He was first married to Neelima Azeem in 1979, and the couple welcomed their son, superstar Shahid Kapoor, in 1981. They parted ways amicably in 1984.
Kapur found love again on a film set and married actress Supriya Pathak in 1988. Their marriage has stood the test of time, lasting for over 37 years. Together, they have two children: daughter Sanah (born 1990) and son Ruhaan (born 1994). Supriya warmly embraced Shahid into their family from the start. While the couple faced initial opposition from Supriya's mother due to Pankaj's previous divorce, their relationship overcame all hurdles. Sanah married Mayank Pahwa in 2022, and Ruhaan tied the knot with Manukriti Pahwa in 2023.
On the work front, Pankaj Kapur was last seen in the 2024 film 'Binny and Family'. The movie was produced by Ekta Kapoor and directed by Sanjay Tripathy, also featuring actors like Anjini Dhawan, Rajesh Kumar, and Himani Shivpuri.
This new Audi Q7 purchase is not just an acquisition of a luxury item but a reflection of the actor's successful career and stable personal life, mirroring the vehicle's qualities of strength, comfort, and reliability.
