Overview
- Sunjay Kapur’s children, Samaira and Kiaan, have sued in Delhi High Court alleging their stepmother Priya Sachdev forged a will, while Priya’s lawyers say the children were allotted ₹1,900 crore and were not excluded.
- Karisma Kapoor’s lawyer Mahesh Jethmalani called the ₹1,900 crore claim a non-starter and said the widely cited ₹30,000 crore valuation is media-driven, arguing full asset details have not been disclosed.
- Justice Jyoti Singh issued summons, ordered a comprehensive list of movable and immovable assets, required the purported will to be filed under seal, and scheduled consideration of interim relief on October 9.
- On Priya Sachdev’s rectification plea, the court removed Sunjay’s sister Mandhira Kapur from the case records after finding she had not been impleaded as a party.
- A video of a heated exchange between senior advocates Mahesh Jethmalani and Rajiv Nayar went viral, and Priya Sachdev continued public business engagements by attending an ACMA meeting as an Aureus Investment director and Sona Comstar board member.
