Kapur Family Marks First Anniversary as Estate Battle and Mediation Press On

Public tributes from Sunjay Kapur’s wife, mother and his ex-wife coincide with court orders that preserve assets while mediation by former CJI DY Chandrachud proceeds.

Overview

  • Sunjay Kapur died on June 12, 2025, after collapsing while playing polo, and British authorities later concluded his death was from natural causes.
  • On June 12 this year, Priya Sachdeva Kapur and Rani Kapur posted a joint memorial note and Karisma Kapoor shared a separate Instagram tribute to mark the first anniversary.
  • The family's public remembrance comes while a legal fight over Kapur’s estimated Rs 30,000 crore estate remains unresolved and actively contested in court.
  • The Delhi High Court has frozen and ordered preservation of assets and barred Priya Kapur from selling property or operating bank accounts under an interim injunction.
  • The Supreme Court has asked parties to avoid actions that could affect mediation and appointed former Chief Justice DY Chandrachud to try to broker a negotiated settlement.
