1. If the will was made in Chennai, then it would have to be probated. You must have to check whether it was done.
2. You have a right to challenge the will, on the ground that your grandmother had no reason to disown you.

Under Muslim law the property should be divided as per the practice in that religion. Therefore even if the Will is made, whether registered or not, the same is not valid if it is against the tenets of Islam.
