Boney Kapoor And Daughters Seek Madras High Court To Reject Sridevi Property Suit Film producer Boney Kapoor and his daughters, Janhvi and Kushi Kapoor, have filed a petition with the Madras High Court challenging an order from the Additional District Judge in Chengalpattu, which refused to dismiss a legal claim over the property of late actress Sridevi. The case centers on a 4.7-acre plot near the East Coast Road, which is the subject of a dispute between Kapoor’s family and MC Sivakami, her sister MC Natarajan, and their mother Chandrabhanu. The plaintiffs argue that the property, acquired by Sridevi and her sister through sale deeds in 1988, was obtained fraudulently and that they have a legal claim to it as descendants of Sridevi’s paternal grandfather. The petition, heard by Justice TV Thamilselvi on March 16, 2026, was scheduled for final resolution on March 26. The court extended an interim stay on the trial, pending further proceedings. Kapoor’s legal team argued that the plaintiffs’ claim lacked legal merit, citing several grounds. They contended that Chandrabhanu’s marriage to Sridevi’s brother was invalid due to bigamy, as it was conducted while her first marriage was still in effect. This, they claimed, rendered the marriage void ab initio, undermining the plaintiffs’ right to the property. Kapoor also asserted that the plaintiffs’ delay in filing the suit—37 years after the sale deeds were executed—barred the case under the Limitation Act. He further questioned the validity of the plaintiffs’ allegations, noting that the patta (land record) issued by the Tahsildar was obtained through proper verification of title documents. The plaintiffs, however, countered that Kapoor’s arguments were speculative and required resolution during the trial.#janhvi_kapoor #boney_kapoor #kushi_kapoor #mc_sivakami #mc_natarajan
