Sunjay Kapur's mother challenges appointment - Page 4

A fresh twist has rocked the legacy of the late Sunjay Kapur, former chairman of Sona Comstar. His children from his marriage with Karisma Kapoor — Kiaan and Samaira — have now approached the Delhi High Court, demanding their rightful share in their father’s ₹30000 crore estate.

The siblings have leveled serious allegations against their stepmother Priya Sachdev (Sunjay’s third wife), accusing her of forging and manipulating his will. They claim that Priya, along with two associates, deliberately withheld the will for more than seven weeks, only presenting it at a family meeting on July 30, 2025.

In their petition, the children allege: “The purported will allegedly executed by the Plaintiffs’ father is not a legal and valid document, is forged and fabricated and in any event surrounded by suspicious circumstances.” They further revealed that neither the original document nor even a copy of the will has been shown to them.

Delhi HC is busy with Aishwarya Rai and Karishma Kapoor s cases.

I'm quite sure that this 'testament' is more than questionable... with enough money at hand, an almost perfect forgery is feasible...it just takes time (and wicked thinking/acting).

During the hearing, Sunjay’s mother, Rani Kapur, also raised objections to the will. She told the court, “My son today leaves me with not a roof on my head? I am 80 years old. Today I have nothing. I have written at least 15 emails asking about the will, what are the documents? Not a word has been shared. I have been told that my emails have been compromised. There is something incredibly unholy. ₹10,000 crore worth of assets should have been mine.”She further questioned how the entire estate could be transferred to Priya within three months of her marriage to Sunjay, saying her vested interest had been disregarded.“Her vested interest goes into trust. All gone. I am nowhere. Ms Sachdev comes in, within three months of her getting married, everything goes? My son today leaves me with no roof over my head? I am Rani Kapur,” the mother said.“On the issue of the will, what is also important is that there are also assets of Sona Comstar which have been sold. We don't know who sold it. Shares worth ₹500 crore sold to a Singapore entity. My lords none of the documents were shared with me,” she said.

In the ongoing inheritance dispute involving Sunjay Kapur, Priya Sachdev Kapur’s lawyer, Rajiv Nayar, took aim at Karisma Kapoor, telling the court that she had been “nowhere to be seen for the last 15 years" after separating from Kapur. Appearing on behalf of Priya Sachdev Kapur, Nayar urged sympathy for Kapur, who, he noted, “died while playing polo."

Senior Advocate Rajiv Nayar, appearing for Priya Kapur, contended that the suit is not maintainable. He said the plaintiffs are already beneficiaries under the trust and had received assets worth ₹1,900 crore just days before the case was filed.

While senior advocate Mahesh Jethmalani appeared for the two children of Karisma Kapoor, senior advocates Rajiv Nayar and Shyel Trehan appeared for Priya Sachdev Kapur.

Senior advocate Vaibhav Gaggar represented Sunjay Kapur’s mother Rani Kapur, while senior advocate Akhil Sibal appeared for the minor son of Priya Kapur and Sunjay Kapur.

Justice Jyoti Singh directed Priya Kapur to file her replies to the plaint and posted the matter for further hearing on October 9.

"Issue notice. Reply in two weeks, rejoinder in a week thereafter. Along with replies, Defendant 1 (Priya) will file a list of all movable and immovable assets known to Defendant 1. Assets to be declared as of June 12. Next date of hearing is October 9," the judge said.

very unfortunate for an 80 year old to go thru all this

Sunjay Kapur was helping Karisma Kapoor, kids ditch Indian passport for Portuguese citizenship; court documents show

The legal battle over late businessman Sunjay Kapur’s ₹30,000 crore estate has taken a new turn, with new records being submitted in the Delhi High Court that claim that he was in helping his former wife and actor Karisma Kapoor and their kids get Portuguese citizenship.

According to documents which have been submitted in the Court amid the estate feud, Sunjay was helping Karisma and their kids: Samaira and Kiaan, in the process of securing Portuguese citizenship.

According to court documents accessed by News18, Sunjay was in touch with Karisma. WhatsApp chats and documents annexed to the suit filed by Karisma’s children in the Delhi High Court suggest regular and personal discussions between the estranged couple.

As per the records submitted, Sunjay was assisting Karisma and their children in obtaining Portuguese citizenship, with the documents indicating that steps were taken to secure foreign nationality for the family.

In fact, one of the chats cited in the suit, claim that Sunjay once told Karisma that she would have to give up her Indian citizenship to obtain a Portuguese passport, with the message reading, “India does not permit dual citizenship”. The Delhi High Court will now examine these documents as the case progresses.
