Karisma Kapoor’s kids claim Sunjay Kapur’s will is digitally fabricated, lawyer says 'How can he misspell his son's name'

The Delhi High Court heard shocking claims that Sunjay Kapur’s Rs30,000-crore will was digitally forged to transfer his entire Sona BLW fortune solely to his third wife, Priya Kapur.

The Delhi High Court on Monday (October 13) heard explosive allegations that the will of late industrialist Sunjay Kapur, heir to the Rs30,000-crore Sona BLW automotive empire, was digitally fabricated to divert his vast estate entirely to his third wife, Priya Kapur.

The claim, brought forward by Samaira and Kiaan Kapur, his children with actor Karisma Kapoor, accuses unnamed individuals of forging the document and manipulating its digital trail.

The Allegations

Representing the children, Senior Advocate Mahesh Jethmalani described the document as “a manufactured will born on another man’s computer.”

He told the court that metadata revealed the file was created on the laptop of Nitin Sharma, who has no formal connection to Sunjay Kapur.

“The file was drafted and altered on Sharma’s device on March 17, 2025 — a day when Sunjay was in Goa with his son Kiaan,” Jethmalani said.

“It defies logic that he would rewrite his will while on vacation, disinheriting his children.”

The will was later converted to PDF on March 24, hours before a WhatsApp group named Family Office IC was formed to circulate it among a small circle that included Priya Sachdeva Kapur, Sharma, and Dinesh Agarwal, a director at Aureus Investment Pvt Ltd, part of the Sona BLW promoter group.

Digital Evidence and Contradictions

According to the petition, the electronic records show multiple unidentified edits made before and after Sunjay’s death, and the will surfaced only 13 days after his cremation. “There is no clear chain of custody,” Jethmalani argued. He also pointed out inconsistencies within the will — missing assets, incorrect addresses for the children, and even five variations of the name of Sunjay’s youngest son, Azarias.

“The will lacks a schedule of assets, a crucial annexure that details the estate,” Jethmalani said, calling the omission “a procedural collapse.”

Court’s Observation

The High Court noted that the evidence raised “substantial questions” regarding the will’s origin and authenticity. It adjourned the matter to Tuesday, October 14, for further examination of the document’s digital and physical trail.
Priya Kapur’s legal team maintains that the will is genuine and backed by “unimpeachable electronic evidence.” The case now stands as one of India’s most closely watched inheritance battles — a clash between memory and metadata.
