The Supreme Court has issued a notice to Bollywood actress Karisma Kapoor, asking her to respond to a petition by Priya Kapur, the widow of industrialist Sunjay Kapur. Priya is seeking certified copies of a 2016 divorce settlement between her late husband and Karisma, which could become crucial in a separate legal battle in the Delhi High Court. Priya is currently fighting a case in the Delhi High Court, where Karisma's two children are challenging Sunjay's will, which left his entire estate to Priya. The children claim the will is a forgery, a claim Priya denies. To support her case, Priya needs access to the 2016 divorce records, which she believes will help her prove her rights as the legal heir of Sunjay Kapur. However, Karisma's lawyers have objected to Priya's application, calling it 'frivolous' and an attempt to publicize the case. They argue that Priya has no right to file the application, as the proceedings relate to Karisma and her ex-husband. The Supreme Court has agreed to examine the objections and has fixed the next hearing for two weeks. Priya's application was filed in November 2025, and she has sought the complete record of the transfer petition, including orders passed by the court and notes of arguments by lawyers. The case highlights the ongoing legal battle between Priya and Karisma's children over Sunjay's estate, which has been marred by claims of forgery and disputes over inheritance.
