Karisma Kapoor's Children File New Plea Against Priya Sachdev Amid Sunjay Kapur's Inheritance Battle

In a big development in the ongoing Sanjay Kapur’s inheritance battle, Karisma Kapoor’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, have now filed a new petition against Priya Sachdev seeking to stop her from transferring

or altering any of Sunjay’s assets until the matter is resolved. The hearing on this request will take place on November 20 and more details are awaited.

This comes at a time when the fight over late industrialist Sunjay Kapur’s sprawling estate worth thousands of crores has taken a sharper turn after the Delhi High Court questioned Priya and the contentious Will’s executor Shraddha Suri Marwah for objecting to Samaira and Kiaan’s request for a forensic examination of Sunjay’s alleged final testament.

The Will document and the Kapur scions’ application requesting the forensic inspection are currently with the Joint Registrar of Delhi High Court, Gagandeep Jindal.

On November 11, Sunjay’s first two kids from his second wife Karisma Kapoor asked the court for permission to inspect the purported original Will produced by Priya earlier in October, which they claim contains several irregularities. However, Priya opposed the request.

Following this, the plea by Samaira and Kiaan was heard by the Joint Registrar again on November 17. Subsequently, the Joint Registrar has directed Priya Sachdev and Shraddha Suri Marwah to file a written reply with reasoning for the objection within three weeks. Meanwhile, Samaira and Kiaan’s counsels have been allowed to file any additional submission with regards to the matter during this period. The matter will now be heard on December 16.

For the unversed, Karisma Kapoor married Sunjay Kapur in September 2003. The couple became parents to their daughter, Samaira, in 2005 and their son, Kiaan, in 2011. However, they parted ways in 2016. Kapur passed away in June 2025. While Karisma is not directly involved in the legal battle of her former husband’s inheritance drama, she is representing her children, Samaira and Kiaan.
