Sunjay Kapur passed away on 12 June 2025, over a month later, the attention on him is still intense, this time over a reported inheritance dispute within his family. His mother, Rani Kapur, raised doubts about his sudden demise, which was reported as a cardiac arrest. She also hinted that someone may be trying to take over the family\u2019s legacy. The spotlight soon shifted to Sunjay\u2019s third wife, Priya Sachdev Kapur.<\/p>\n
Priya and Safira change their names?<\/p>\n
Priya has been appointed as the non-executive director of Sona Comstar, the family\u2019s business. Reports claim that she changed her name to \u2018Priya Sunjay Kapur\u2019. It\u2019s also said that her daughter, Safira, from her first marriage, dropped the surname \u2018Chatwal\u2019 and adopted \u2018Kapur\u2019. While this hasn\u2019t been confirmed, the change has sparked many theories. Safira\u2019s Instagram doesn\u2019t show any surname, and Priya\u2019s handle reads \u2018Priya S Kapur\u2019, so it could mean \u2018Sunjay\u2019 or \u2018Sachdev\u2019.<\/p>\n

Who is Safira, Sunjay\u2019s stepdaughter?<\/p>\n
Priya Sachdev married Vikram Chatwal in 2006. They had a daughter, Safira, in 2007. However, the couple faced problems and divorced in 2011. Later, Priya married Sunjay Kapur. As reported by BollywoodShaadis, Sunjay legally adopted Safira according to Indian law. She lived with Sunjay and Priya, and their Instagram posts showed them as one family. Priya and Sunjay had a son, Azarius, in 2018. Safira, now 19 years old, is currently studying at Marlborough College in England. She\u2019s said to be interested in geopolitical issues and international relations.<\/p>\n
Will Safira get a share in Sunjay\u2019s fortune?<\/p>\n
There\u2019s been a lot of talk about whether Safira will inherit anything from Sunjay\u2019s Rs 30,000 crore estate. According to News18 Showsha, under Indian law, a stepchild doesn\u2019t get anything unless legally adopted. But if Sunjay did adopt her, and it\u2019s documented, she would be a legal heir just like his other children.However, there\u2019s a catch, if Safira were legally adopted by Sunjay, she might lose the right to inherit from her biological father, Vikram Chatwal. And if there\u2019s no official will, her place in the inheritance is still unclear.<\/p>\n
Karisma Kapoor is not part of the dispute<\/p>\n
While rumours swirled that Karisma Kapoor might have a say in the property matters, a family source spoke to ETimes and cleared the air. \u201cKarisma Kapoor is not involved in any inheritance or property-related matters,\u201d said the source. \u201cShe has no claim, nor is she seeking any share in the estate. Her only concern is the well-being and future of her children.\u201d<\/p>\n
Samaira and Kiaan are rightful heirs<\/p>\n
Karisma and Sunjay got married in 2003 and parted ways in 2016. They have two children together, Samaira and Kiaan. According to the family source, \u201cThe children will receive what is due to them.\u201d They are the rightful heirs to their late father\u2019s estate. \u201cKarisma\u2019s focus remains entirely on them,\u201d the source added.<\/p>\n
Priya and son Azarius also included<\/p>\n
Since Priya was Sunjay\u2019s wife when he passed away, she too has a claim to his estate. Their son, Azarius, being his biological child, is also a rightful heir. And if Safira\u2019s adoption is legally valid, she could be included in the list of heirs too.<\/p>\n
Sunjay\u2019s mother questions his sudden demise<\/p>\n
Adding more tension to the situation, Sunjay\u2019s mother, Rani Kapur, has raised serious questions. In a statement to ANI, she said, \u201cI still don\u2019t know what happened to my son. I\u2019m old now, and I need closure before I go.\u201d She also said, \u201cOur family legacy must not be lost. It must be passed on as my husband always wanted it to be.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sunjay Kapur passed away on 12 June 2025, over a month later, the attention on him is still…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":57338,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[88,43198,43196,43199,206,43197,43204,43201,43195,43202,43203,43200],"class_list":["post-57337","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-indian-inheritance-law","tag-inheritance-dispute","tag-karisma-kapoor","tag-movies","tag-priya-sachdev-kapur","tag-safira","tag-sunjay-kapur-family-dispute","tag-sunjay-kapur-inheritance","tag-sunjay-kapur-property-dispute","tag-sunjay-kapurs-stepdaughter","tag-vikram-chatwal"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57337","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=57337"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/57337\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/57338"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=57337"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=57337"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=57337"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
