Supreme Court Petition: Priya Kapur Seeks Access to Sunjay Kapur's Divorce Records

Priya Kapur has filed a plea with India's Supreme Court to obtain confidential divorce records of her late husband, Sunjay Kapur, from proceedings with Karisma Kapoor. This request is part of ongoing estate and succession legal battles. Priya asserts her legal standing in these matters post Sunjay's passing.

Priya Kapur has approached the Supreme Court of India, requesting access to vital court documents pertaining to the 2016 transfer petition linked to her late husband Sunjay Kapur's divorce from actor Karisma Kapoor. The plea seeks certified copies which are crucial for her pending succession cases at the Delhi High Court.

The original 2016 petition involved Sunjay Kapur's request to move a divorce case out of Mumbai, leading to an eventual amicable settlement. The Supreme Court concluded the case in 2016 after detailed consent terms were agreed upon. Following Sunjay's death in 2025, Priya, who married him in 2017, claims her right to access these documents as they impact her legal stakes in his estate.

The plea highlights the necessity of obtaining these records to ensure justice without prejudicing any original respondent. This bid emerges as disputes over Sunjay's will escalate to the Supreme Court. The Delhi High Court has recently concluded hearings concerning Sunjay's estate, with a decision pending on interim injunctions from his children with Karisma Kapoor. (ANI)
