Karisma Kapoor’s Children Challenge Sunjay Kapur’s Will Amid Estate Dispute

New Delhi: The death of Sunjay Kapur has ignited a contentious legal dispute, as Karishma Kapoor’s children, Samira and Kiaan, have filed a petition contesting a will allegedly left behind by their father. The siblings claim that their stepmother, Priya Sachdev Kapur, “forged” the document in an attempt to seize control of his sprawling Rs 30,000 crore fortune. The matter, now before the Delhi High Court, has brought fresh attention to the latest industrialist's legacy and his towering business empire.

Karisma Kapoor’s Old Interviews Resurface

Amid this legal tussle, several older interviews of Karisma Kapoor have resurfaced across media platforms. In one candid exchange with journalist Subhash K. Jha, the actress spoke about her then-fiancé Sunjay Kapur, referring to him as a "very rich man."

Responding thoughtfully, Karisma remarked, "I don't know about that. He has his own business and his father's business to take care of. I'll continue to have my career, but far more discreetly. Basically, I'm looking to enter into a new phase in my life. I've slogged it out for nearly thirteen years. And now it's time for me to find another level in my life. So far, I've been fulfilling a moral responsibility to my career, my producers, and fans."

The actress further explained, "That will continue. I'll do a good project whenever it comes my way. But now it's time for me to find personal happiness. I've cut down on my workload. Now people know why. I'm not one of those actresses who'd grab anything that comes my way. I'll continue doing my serial Karishma: The Miracle Of Destiny and a couple of films per year."

The Courtroom Confrontation

At the heart of this dispute lies Sunjay Kapur’s colossal Rs 30,000 crore estate, anchored in businesses like Sona Comstar. Samaira and Kiaan, represented legally by their mother, are demanding a fair partition of assets, insisting that Priya Sachdev’s alleged manipulation of the will should not deprive them of their patrimony.

Lawyers argue that the purported will could be a product of subterfuge, and the case has turned into a high-stakes litigation involving multiple family members. Observers note that this trial carries enormous implications for the family’s dynastic wealth, as well as the continuation of Sanjay Kapur's commercial bequest.

For now, the Delhi High Court will decide whether the contested will is authentic or a deliberate fabrication. The ruling will not only shape the division of assets but also define the inheritance of an industrial lineage that remains deeply embedded in India’s corporate landscape.
