Karisma Kapoor's lawyer reveals she refused Portuguese citizenship offer from Sunjay Kapur for THIS reason: 'She would have to give up...'

As the battle over Sunjay Kapur’s Rs 31,000 crore estate continues to grab headlines, a new detail has emerged: the late businessman had been trying to help his ex-wife Karisma Kapoor and their two children get Portuguese citizenship.Documents filed in the Delhi High Court reveal that Sunjay told Karisma she would have to give up her Indian citizenship to get a Portuguese passport. Unlike many Western countries, India does not allow dual citizenship.When asked about Sunjay Kapur’s attempt to secure Portuguese citizenship for Karisma and their children, her lawyer Mahesh Jethmalani said it raised questions about the will. He explained that around the end of May—about two months after the will was reportedly executed—Sunjay tried to arrange Portuguese citizenship for his kids and possibly for Karisma. She, however, refused because it would have meant giving up her Indian citizenship.He added that Sunjay’s attempt to get Portuguese citizenship for his children raised further questions. The plan would have exempted all three kids—including the child with Priya Kapur and Sunjay’s two children with Karisma—from inheritance tax on overseas properties. The lawyer noted that it seemed odd to pursue this in May 2025 if a will had already been executed in March 2025, leaving all overseas assets to Priya and nothing to the children, calling it a suspicious circumstance.Sunjay, chairman of the well-known Indian auto company Sona Comstar, passed away on June 12 at the age of 53 after suffering a heart attack during a polo match in London.Sunjay first married renowned fashion designer Nandita Mahtani in 1996, but the marriage ended after four years. He then tied the knot with Karisma Kapoor in 2003, and the couple divorced in 2016. They had two children: Samaira Kapur (20) and a 15-year-old son. In 2018, Sunjay married Priya Sachdeva, and they had a son together.Disclaimer: The information in this report is based on a legal hearing as reported by a third-party source.
