Had Child And It's All Yours? Sunjay Kapoor's Sister Blasts Priya Sachdev, Defends Samaira In Will Dispute

Amid controversy over the property dispute over late businessman Sunjay Kapur's estate, his sister Mandhira Kapur has now slammed his second wife Priya Sachdev, accusing her of forging the will.

Appearing on the InControversial Podcast, Mandhira claimed that Priya Sachdev was trying to "erase his bloodline" by favouring her children - Safira and Azarius - in the will over Sunjay's biological children.

Mandhira was emphatic that Safira, whom Priya had with her former husband Vikram Chatwal, should not be designated as Sunjay's daughter. "Safira has been called the daughter (in the will). Samaira is the daughter, not Safira. Safira is the stepdaughter. Her biological father is alive," she stated, referring to Sunjay's daughter with Karisma Kapoor.

She clarified that while Sunjay cared for Safira, that affection did not alter the facts of family lineage. "Nobody is denying that my brother cared for Safira. But don't take over when Samaira is there. Don't name Safira 'the daughter.' She is the stepdaughter. Stop rewriting lineage."

Will Described as "Suspicious" in Court

These comments follow arguments made in the Delhi High Court on October 13 by senior counsel Mahesh Jethmalani, who cast doubt on the will presented by Priya Kapur. The document reportedly names only Priya and her two children, while excluding Sunjay's biological children, Samaira and Kiaan Kapur.

Jethmalani highlighted alleged errors in the will, such as misspelled names and incorrect addresses, which he called "bloopers." Mandhira echoed this skepticism, saying, "My brother was a particular human being. You cannot misspell his son's name. You cannot get his daughter's address wrong. These are not mistakes; these are giveaways. Just because you've been with someone for seven years, you cannot erase normal habits that we have grown up with. Nobody changes so drastically to be another person within seven years. Spelling mistakes, the wrong use of pronouns."

"You have stolen from our family"

In a charged moment during the podcast, Mandhira emotionally accused Priya of seizing what rightfully belongs to Sunjay's biological family. "You're depriving the whole family. You have stolen from our family. You have stolen. This is ours. It doesn't belong to you that you're claiming it. Like, what have you done? Gotten married? I mean, seriously? Had a child and it's all yours now. Everyone should get married like this, yeah? Everyone go get married, have a baby, and chalo, it's all yours!"

The legal challenge was formally initiated by Sunjay Kapur's children with Karisma Kapoor, Samaira and Kiaan, who have filed a petition in the Delhi High Court claiming the will is "forged and fabricated" to disinherit them. Following a hearing on November 17, Joint Registrar (Judicial) Gagandeep Jindal issued notices to Priya Kapur and the will's named executor, Shradha Suri Marwah, giving them three weeks to respond. The case will next be heard on December 16.
