Riddhima Kapoor Sahni took a moment to celebrate a special family milestone as she wished her cousin sister Karisma Kapoor’s daughter Samaira Kapoor on her birthday.

Riddhima took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday, March 11 and shared a photo featuring her daughter Samara Sahni alongside niece Samaira, who turned 21 this year. Along with the photo, she wrote, “Happiest bday darling Samaira."

The photo showed a sweet moment between the two cousins, highlighting the close bond shared within the extended Kapoor family.

Samaira Kapoor has gone through a challenging time over the past year following the sudden passing of her father and businessman Sunjay Kapur. He passed away at the age of 53 from a heart attack in the UK while playing polo.

Following that, Samaira and her younger brother Kiaan Kapur made headlines after they reportedly filed a petition in the Delhi High Court seeking a share in their late father’s estate.

According to reports, Samaira and Kiaan have alleged that their father’s third wife, Priya Kapur, had tampered with his will and she was trying to claim the entire property.

The two have sought one-fifth of the property and said that it is their right as the legal heirs of late Sunjay Kapur.

Both Samaira and Kiaan were known to have frequently visited Delhi to spend time with their father at his Rajokri House.

During these visits, both Samaira and Kiaan had their own designated rooms at their father’s home.
