Priya Sachdev Vs Karisma Kapoor’s Children In Delhi High Court
Recently, Karisma Kapoor’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, moved to the Delhi High Court to demand a share in the assets of their late father, Sunjay Kapur. In their petition, the two children claimed that their stepmother, Priya Sachdev, forged Sunjay’s will. They submitted that the purported will allegedly executed by their father is not a legal and valid document, is forged and fabricated.
They argued that it is because of this reason that neither the original of the Alleged Purported Will has been shown to them nor a copy of the Alleged Purported Will has been provided. The children, therefore, requested the court to provide them with a copy of the said document.
Hearing the plea on Wednesday, September 10, the High Court asked Priya to declare all assets of Sunjay Kapur. The next hearing will take place on October 10.
