Priya Sachdev Kapur told the Delhi High Court on Tuesday that forensic testing of her late husband Sunjay Kapur’s contested will is unnecessary in proving its validity. The action deepens the heated dispute over his Rs 30,000 crore inheritance, with executor Shradha Suri Marwah once again disputing who gave her the papers. Sunjay’s children from his ex-wife Karisma Kapoor, Samaira and Kiaan Raj Kapur, vigorously advocated for the science check to definitively resolve allegations of fabrication.
Priya’s side argued at the hearing before joint registrar Gagandeel Jindal that the will, which is dated March 21, 2025, is unquestionably valid without laboratory examination. Shradha’s indecisiveness stole the show: on June 24, she swore that Priya had given it to her; on June 14, she switched to Dinesh Agarwal; and now, after her files were filed, she is going back to Priya. The children criticized it as suspicious, claiming that science would clear the haze surrounding this crucial document that gives Priya complete authority over personal property and clout over Sona Comstar.
Court slotted the forensic plea and Shradha’s tweak request for January 20, 2026. Sunjay dropped dead June 12 from a heart attack during an England polo match, sparking instant war between his third wife and first marriage heirs. Priya first said everything sat in the RK Family Trust with no will; late July she flipped it out, fueling cries of criminal plot with three aides.
Executor Shradha’s Flip-Flops Fuel Forgery Doubts:
Under oath, Shradha Suri Marwah’s story continued to change, provoking criticism from Samaira and Kiaan’s camp. After pushback, June 24 from Priya became June 14 via Agarwal, but Priya’s most recent documents pulled her back to the first yarn. The plaintiffs demanded that the court reject her amendment petition because it was too convenient after exposure, accusing her of manipulating the truth to suit their needs.
Priya’s lawyers held firm no forensic needed, but the kids insisted it’s make-or-break to verify ink, signature, and paper against their dead dad’s hand. They tagged it a blatant fake cooked up to snatch their chunk of the family potpourri, from personal stash to business reins. Sunjay chaired Sona Comstar, a group beast worth over Rs 30,000 crore when he went down. Rani Kapur, his mom, and sister Mandira backed the kids, accusing Priya of Cinderella stepmom moves to elbow them out. The will leaves zilch for them, routing all movable and immovable goods straight to Priya, clashing with early trust talk.
Kids Demand Science Probe on March 2025 Document:
Samaira and Kiaan filed partition suit craving their birthright slice, hitting the brakes on Priya spinning off third-party rights till sorted. They called the will a template job, signatures phony, part of a conspiracy with Priya and cohorts. Court earlier grilled the “healthy tradition” line from Priya’s brief on wife-first transfers, sticking tight to kids’ claims.
Priya argued that there was no ex-wife grab-it was just children’s play but Justice Jyoti Singh refocused: Karisma wants nada, therefore it’s offspring versus stepmom. The forensic push is a new salvo after signature pleas and asset list demands, and the Delhi High Court has asked Priya to respond.Sunjay’s death in the polo circle was attributed to heart failure, despite rumors of bee stings. Weeks after her death, Priya took over the business amid judicial upheaval, portraying asset shift as the norm and opponents as heists.
January Hearing Looms Over Rs 30,000 Cr Empire:
Next round January 20 eyes Shradha’s flip permission and the test go-ahead, with joint registrar weighing in first. The kids want interim locks barring Priya alienating holdings, underscoring urgency as Sona Comstar chugs on under shadow.
Watchers claim that Priya’s reluctance heightens suspicion about a document that is essential to her empire lock. The Rs 30,000 crore pie, both personal and group, is in jeopardy due to executor changes that scent of housekeeping after holes were created. Kids yell foul from day one, and family trust stories have evolved into single will windfalls.Delhi courts become involved in a Bollywood-themed boardroom fight between the late patriarch’s final spouse and his blood heirs. Sunjay’s abrupt departure sparked the fire; will conflicts continue to rage with a forensic key or without determining who gets to cash the legacy check?
