Karisma Kapoor’s Children Move Delhi High Court, Alleging Forgery in ₹30,000 Crore Kapur Estate Battle
Suit Seeks Partition, Freezing of Assets; Will Produced by Stepmother Priya Kapur Challenged as Fabricated
Bollywood actor Karisma Kapoor’s children have filed a civil suit before the Delhi High Court seeking their rightful share of late businessman Sunjay Kapur’s estate, valued at over ₹30,000 crore. The suit, filed by Samaira and Kiaan Kapur represented by their mother, accuses their stepmother Priya Kapur of producing a suspicious will and attempting to usurp control of all assets following Kapur’s sudden death in June 2025.
The children allege they were wrongfully excluded from the estate after Priya produced a will dated March 21, 2025, which allegedly leaves Sunjay Kapur’s entire personal assets solely to her. Until that point, Priya had repeatedly claimed—both in England and India—that no will existed and that the assets were held by the R.K. Family Trust, which is not part of the current dispute.
The will’s emergence, seven weeks after Kapur’s death, and Priya’s refusal to provide a copy or show the original document to Karisma Kapoor’s children and their mother, is cited in the suit as evidence of forgery and suspicious conduct. The defendants include Priya Kapur, her minor son, Sunjay Kapur’s mother Rani Kapur, and the executor of the purported will, Shradha Suri Marwah, among others.
The children seek to be declared Class I legal heirs and have asked for a one-fifth share each in their father’s movable and immovable assets. As interim relief, they have requested freezing of all assets until the court resolves the matter, highlighting that Kapur had acquired property for their benefit and assured them of financial security before his death.
This high-profile inheritance battle has drawn attention amid prior internal family disputes, with the will at the center of mounting legal challenges. The court will now consider whether there is merit in the forgery claims and whether the children should receive the requested share of the estate.
