The lawyer of late Sunjay Kapur's mother, Rani Kapur, highlighted on Wednesday that the fight in the forged-will case was "really more between Karisma Kapoor and Priya Kapur".
In the latest twist to the ongoing feud over the Kapur's estate, Karisma Kapoor's children claimed on Wednesday that the will of Sunjay Kapur's Rs 30,000-crore assets was not legally registered. The Delhi High Court has sought details of all movable and immovable assets of Sunjay Kapur as on the date of his death.
The children — Samaira and Kiaan — have questioned the will dated March 21, 2025, which allegedly leaves Sunjay Kapur's entire personal estate to his wife Priya Kapur. They were represented by senior advocate Mahesh Jethmalani.
Senior Advocate Vaibhav Gaggar, representing Rani Kapur, told ANI, "She has been made defendant number 3 in her capacity as a class 1 heir of Sanjay Kapur. She has been quite unequivocal in what her stand has been. It remains the same."
He further noted that, as the matters are coming to court, it would not be appropriate for him to give any further comments. "This fight is really more between Karisma Kapoor and Priya Sachdeva - whether there is a will or there is no will etc. Rani Kapur does get impacted by it, but she will file a response and you will know her stand," Gaggar added.
Sunjay Kapur's third wife, Priya Kapur, in an official statement, has said that Sunjay-Karisma's children have already received a beneficial interest in assets valued at over Rs 1,900 crore through the trust.
"Priya Kapur has been cooperating with plaintiffs in facilitating and securing their beneficial interest. There is unimpeachable electronic evidence alongside the execution to the will," he statement further added.
Sunjay Kapur, the former chairperson of Sona BLW Precision Forgings Ltd., died in London on June 12, with the cause of death reported as heart attack.
The court posted the matter on Oct. 9, when it will consider passing an injunction order for status quo on assets till the suit is decided finally.
