New Delhi: Amid ongoing legal proceedings over her late ex-husband Sunjay Kapur’s Rs 30,000 crore estate, Bollywood actor Karisma Kapoor returned to the limelight with a special appearance on Super Dancer 5. Known for keeping a low profile during the family dispute, Karisma’s episode offered fans a glimpse of her lighter, more personal side.
Fun moments on Super Dancer 5
During the episode, Karisma interacted warmly with the judges—Shilpa Shetty, Geeta Kapur, and Marzi Pestonji—and the audience. One of the highlights came when she recounted a behind-the-scenes anecdote from Yash Chopra’s iconic film Dil Toh Pagal Hai. She revealed how repeated retakes during a dance sequence were caused by a young background dancer who would later become Bollywood star Shahid Kapoor.
Karisma said with a smile, “Do you remember? After every cut, I used to say, ‘Guys, why aren’t you getting the shot right? This is really tough!’ And there was this little young guy standing at the back who kept saying, ‘Sorry’—and that was Shahid! But now I feel like it was Marzi who was making all the mistakes.”
The episode was filled with laughter and nostalgia, providing a stark contrast to the serious circumstances in her personal life.
Legal battle over Sunjay Kapur’s estate
Since Sunjay Kapur passed away in June this year, his family has been engaged in a complex legal dispute over his substantial estate worth Rs 30,000 crore. Karisma’s children with Sunjay, Samaira and Kiaan, are also involved in the inheritance proceedings.
Karisma’s counsel has clarified that the actor has no personal claim on her former husband’s wealth. “Karisma Kapoor doesn’t want anything for herself. The entire aim of this litigation is to secure her children in the manner in which her late ex-husband wanted them to be secure, which is as per a trust deed that dealt with his assets in India, his corporate assets in India, and by and large, his assets abroad,” he said, according to The Indian Express.
Conclusion
While the courtroom proceedings continue, Karisma Kapoor’s appearance on Super Dancer 5 has offered fans a rare and joyful glimpse of the actor, providing a light-hearted break from her ongoing legal challenges.
