As the widow of the industrialist, she is facing allegations from Sunjay’s children, Samaira and Kiaan with actress Karisma Kapoor, who have approached the Delhi High Court claiming that Priya forged his will. The dispute revolves around a massive inheritance reportedly worth Rs 30,000 crore.

Priya Kapur’s birthday post for Sunjay Kapur

Just a few days before the hawan, Priya Sachdev had shared a moving tribute on Sunjay Kapur’s birth anniversary. Her words painted a picture of a man defined by kindness, courage, and selflessness. She wrote, “You lived these words without ever needing to speak them. You led with kindness, not command. You built with courage, not pride. You gave without expecting, because giving was your nature. I watched you move through storms with grace, carry burdens with calm, and turn every challenge into purpose. You never spoke of faith, you lived it. You believed in doing, not declaring.”
