Please note, contents & not the form is what is important. A Will must include all properties, both movable & immovable of the testator. Residuary properties should also be taken care of. An executor should be appointed who will take probate of the will after testator's death preferably without security.Two witnesses should be there in the will, one of them preferably your family doctor. They will be required to testify that the testator was of sound mind & had signed the will in their presence of his own volition.
As far as form is concerned,it is not important. However, U can get it in any book of Conveyancing available in the market.
U are advised to contact an advocate who deals in Succession matters. Remember that the testator will not be around during probate proceedings to rectify mistakes & this may lead to serious consequences.

I agreed with the expert. Even you didn't mentioned that the propert is self acquired property or ancestral property.. If its self acquired property mean your husband can make a will as per his wish.
