The long-settled divorce between actor Karisma Kapoor and late industrialist Sunjay Kapur is back in the spotlight. Priya Kapur, Sunjay’s third wife, has approached the Supreme Court seeking certified copies of all documents related to the 2016 proceedings.
A bench of Justice AS Chandurkar will review Priya’s request in a chamber hearing. She has asked for the divorce petition, all court documents, Supreme Court orders, and the settlement agreement detailing financial and child custody arrangements made by her late husband.
The move comes amid an ongoing legal battle over Sunjay Kapur’s estate, reportedly worth Rs 30,000 crore. His untimely death in June last year at the age of 53 triggered high-profile litigation, with disputes surfacing over his controversial will.
Karisma Kapoor Divorce Documents In Supreme Court Focus
Priya Kapur’s application brings Karisma Kapoor’s divorce documents back into public attention. The Supreme Court will decide whether these confidential papers should be released.
Legal experts say access to certified copies could help clarify the settlement agreement and any financial obligations stipulated during the divorce. The case could also affect the ongoing scrutiny of Sunjay Kapur’s will and estate.
Family Feud Over Sunjay Kapur’s Estate
Sunjay Kapur’s children, Samaira and Kiaan Kapur, have challenged the will in the Delhi High Court, claiming it is “forged and fabricated.” They allege that Priya Kapur, along with attesting witnesses, falsified documents to exclude them from the estate.
The siblings have requested to inspect the original will, which was submitted in a sealed cover last September. They have also sought an interim order to prevent Priya from selling or transferring assets until the legal disputes are resolved.
As the case unfolds, the battle over Sunjay Kapur’s wealth is likely to remain in the headlines, drawing attention from both Bollywood and business circles. The Supreme Court’s decision on Priya Kapur’s plea could shape the next chapter of this high-profile legal dispute.
