A bitter family feud over late tycoon Sanjay Kapoor’s 30,000 crore empire has reached India’s top court. Rani Kapoor, the grieving mother, petitioned the Supreme Court to halt any dealings with her son’s assets, leading to notices served on Priya Kapoor Sachdev and 22 respondents.
In her detailed submission, Rani expressed fears of asset fragmentation without immediate protection. She highlighted the Delhi High Court’s inaction on preservation orders, forcing her hand at the apex level. Justices urged dialogue and arbitration to resolve the impasse swiftly.
The dispute traces back to Sanjay’s passing, with his sister Mandira alleging irregularities in the will that sideline Karisma Kapoor—his first wife—and their kids. Priya, married to Sanjay post-divorce, insists on lawful execution of his wishes.
Sanjay’s life intertwined glamour and business; his 2003 wedding to Karisma produced two heirs before their split. This celebrity link has amplified media frenzy around the litigation.
With notices dispatched, the Supreme Court monitors closely, balancing urgent safeguards against fair hearings. Observers predict intense arguments ahead, as stakes soar into billions, testing family bonds and judicial patience.
