Where does Karisma Kapoor’s daughter study in the USA? Samaira Kapoor pays Rs 95 lakh per semester in tuition fees

Karisma Kapoor’s kids, Samaira and Kiaan, are currently in a legal battle against their late father’s widow, Priya Kapur, fighting over Sunjay Kapur’s alleged will and a reported Rs 30,000 crore estate. Amid the courtroom drama, Samaira’s staggering Rs 95 lakh per semester college fees has sparked curiosity about where she is studying and the kind of education she is receiving while the family feud unfolds.

Karisma Kapoor’s children contest father’s will in court

As per reports, during the hearings, Karisma’s legal team alleged that the estate managers had failed to pay Samaira’s college fees. In response, Priya Kapur filed a reply stating that all payments had been made, and her legal team submitted official fee receipts to prove the tuition was cleared. Priya’s lawyer also noted that the next semester fees would only be due in December, countering the claims made by Karisma Kapoor’s team.

Where does Samaira study?

According to her LinkedIn profile, Samaira Kapur completed her schooling at the American School of Bombay, graduating in 2023.

Samaira then moved to the United States to pursue higher education at Tufts University, with a course scheduled to conclude in 2027. While her LinkedIn profile does not mention her major, it is reported that her tuition fee is Rs 95 lakh per semester.

Tufts University, located in Massachusetts, is a private research university founded in 1852, offering 198 graduate and certificate programmes, and has four branches across the country.

Priya Kapur defends will and family claims

In a recent update on the legal battle over Sunjay Kapur’s estate, Priya Kapur has strongly defended the authenticity of the will. On November 21, PTI reported that Priya’s six-year-old son opposed a plea by Karisma Kapoor’s children challenging the will, calling their claims based on speculation and guesswork. Priya’s counsel added that the will was presented within a month of Sunjay’s death, dismissing any allegations of delay.

“This entire case is based on speculation and guesswork. Their case is that on July 30, the executor reads it out hurriedly, slashes a document, and reads it out selectively. At that point, they admittedly know three things -- date, witnesses, and that they are excluded,” said senior advocate Akhil Sibal, representing Priya’s son.

Earlier, Priya Kapur told the High Court that it was a “healthy tradition” for a husband to give his assets to his wife and refuted the claim that the will surfaced under suspicious circumstances.
