Karisma Kapoor Has No Involvement in Sunjay Kapur’s Estate; Children Are Legal Heirs, Say Family Sources
New Delhi | July 28, 2025 — Following the sudden demise of industrialist Sunjay Kapur, several unverified reports have emerged regarding the inheritance of his estate and a possible involvement of his ex-wife, actress Karisma Kapoor. However, reliable sources close to the family have firmly denied these claims.
According to those close to the Kapoor and Kapur families, Karisma Kapoor has no legal or personal connection to the property-related affairs of her late ex-husband. “She is not involved in any inheritance or property-related matters in any way,” a source stated on condition of anonymity, effectively dismissing ongoing speculation.
No Claim from Karisma, Focus Is on Children
Recent media reports suggested Karisma may be considering a stake in Sunjay Kapur’s estimated ₹30,000 crore fortune. But insiders have categorically rubbished these rumours, adding that Karisma’s sole concern at present is the welfare of her two children, Samaira and Kiaan.
The source emphasized that Samaira and Kiaan are the rightful heirs to Sunjay’s estate, which includes his massive business interests under Sona Comstar Group, a company valued at $3.6 billion.
A Look Back at Karisma and Sunjay’s Relationship
Karisma Kapoor and Sunjay Kapur were married in 2003 in a high-profile ceremony attended by Bollywood and business elites. However, the couple separated in 2014 and officially divorced in 2016, following mutual consent.
During the divorce proceedings, Karisma had also filed a domestic violence case against Sunjay and his mother, Rani Kapur, in 2016.
Since then, Karisma has been raising their two children as a single parent, with limited public interactions involving the Kapur family.
Sunjay Kapur’s Demise and Estate Controversy
Sunjay Kapur passed away on June 12, 2025, after suffering a cardiac arrest while playing polo. His sudden demise sent shockwaves across both the business and entertainment sectors.
Following his death, discussions began regarding the future of his substantial assets. Amid speculation, Sunjay’s mother, Rani Kapur, issued a public statement ahead of Sona Comstar’s annual general meeting, claiming she holds the majority stake in the company and is therefore the legal heir to the estate.
Despite these developments, no legal disputes have officially emerged between the family and Karisma Kapoor, who continues to maintain her distance from the matter.
Final Thoughts from TheTrendingPeople.com
The clarification from family sources puts an end to misleading reports involving Karisma Kapoor’s connection to Sunjay Kapur’s wealth. Her children, Samaira and Kiaan, remain the rightful inheritors of their father’s legacy, while Karisma’s role remains solely focused on being a supportive and protective mother.
As the legal processes unfold and Sona Comstar Group continues its business operations, the family has requested privacy and dignity during this difficult time.
