Delhi High Court has sought response from late Sanjay Kapoor’s wife Priya Kapoor on the petition of actress Karisma Kapoor’s children in which they have requested for inspection of the original copy of their father’s alleged will.
Joint Registrar (Judicial) Gagandeep Jindal issued notice to Priya Kapoor and alleged will executor Shraddha Suri Marwah on the petition and asked them to file their reply within three weeks. Now the hearing of the case has been listed for December 16.
Priya Sachdev accused of forging signature
The application was filed in a suit filed by Karisma Kapoor’s children – Samaira Kapoor and her brother – challenging the alleged will of their late father Sanjay Kapoor’s estate.
The value of the assets in question is reportedly Rs 30,000 crore. According to the plaintiffs, the alleged will is fake and fabricated, and the signatures on it are not those of their father, but have been allegedly forged by Priya Kapoor in connivance with the attesting witnesses.
What arguments did Priya Sachdev’s lawyer give?
On the other hand, Priya Kapoor’s lawyer claimed that this application has been filed after he termed the plaintiff’s claims as ‘bogus and baseless’. Priya Kapoor’s lawyer had said in an earlier hearing, ‘The will cannot be called fake due to spelling errors, and he has also not questioned Sanjay Kapoor’s signature.’ The counsel claimed that after this argument was raised, the plaintiff has now filed a fresh application questioning the authenticity of the signature.
Attempt to alienate property
In the application, Karisma Kapoor’s children have sought inspection of the original copy of their late father’s alleged will, which Marwah had filed in a sealed cover on September 25, along with supporting affidavits.
The court is also hearing an interim injunction petition filed by Karisma Kapoor’s children, seeking to restrain Priya Kapoor from alienating them from Sanjay Kapoor’s property. The hearing on this petition will continue on November 20.
Priya Sachdev was called Cinderella’s stepmother.
The children have raised questions on the authenticity of the alleged will. In front of the court, he accused Priya Kapoor of being “greedy” and called her “Cinderella’s stepmother”.
In the fairy tale Cinderella, the girl of the same name is abused by her stepmother, who focuses all her attention on her two daughters. Earlier, the High Court had asked Priya Kapoor to submit the list of her assets to the court.
Meanwhile, Priya Kapoor told the court that the actress’s children have already received Rs 1,900 crore from the family trust.
