During the hearing, the court allowed Priya Kapur, Sunjay Kapur’s wife, to submit a list of his assets in a sealed cover

Karisma Kapoor’s lawyer Mahesh Jethmalani clarified that the actor is not seeking any share of late Sunjay Kapur’s estate for herself.

The counsels for Priya Sachdev Kapur and Karisma Kapoor’s children on Friday told the Delhi High Court they would not disclose the contents of Sunjay Kapur’s will to the media. The assurance was given during a hearing in the inheritance dispute over the late businessman’s estate.

At the hearing, the court permitted Priya, the widow, to submit a list of Kapur’s assets in a sealed cover. Her counsel also asked that the documents shared in court be kept confidential and protected by non‑disclosure agreements.

The court further ordered that Rani Kapur, Sunjay’s mother, be given a copy of the will, while the original would remain in the custody of the High Court’s Registrar General.

Senior Advocate Rajiv Nayar, appearing for Priya, stressed the need for confidentiality in handling the sensitive documents. He told the court that though this is fundamentally a partition case, it has already attracted wide public and media attention. He proposed creating a mechanism or “Confidentiality Club” to limit access to disclosures from entering the public domain.

Priya’s application had requested permission to file her husband’s personal assets and liabilities in a sealed envelope, citing cybersecurity risks and the potential misuse of financial details.

She also sought that all parties — including Kapur’s children from his marriage with Karisma Kapoor and Rani Kapur — sign a Non‑Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before accessing the documents. As an alternative, she proposed a Confidentiality Club in which only specific legal representatives would gain access.
