The Inheritance Dispute

The legal battle centers on the authenticity of a will allegedly signed on March 21, which reportedly omits Samaira and Kiaan from the estate. Karisma and her children have filed suit questioning its validity, arguing it contradicts promises made by Sunjay during his lifetime. Priya maintains the will is authentic, while allegations of forgery have been made by Karisma’s side.

The matter is currently before the Delhi High Court, with proceedings ongoing. Both sides have refrained from public statements beyond social media posts.
