Following the death of the Sunjay Kapur industry, whose goods are reportedly worth Rs 30,000 crore, a legal battle has an outbreak between his third wife, Priya Sachdev Kapur, and his children with actress Charisma kapoor. In the middle of the inheritance dispute, Sunjay’s sister, Mandira Kapur Smith, has now stated sincerely and revealed that the whole family had long opposed his relationship with Priya.In an interview with Vicky Lalwani, Mandira recalled, “I had known them (Priya and Sunjay) since they met on that flight, and I was not happy with it. Lolo and Sanjay was a good place. Kian was born. My brother was obsessed with her children. For another woman not to care about a woman who had only a child.She added further, “to come and disturb a family is in bad taste. And I leave that. I think the world knows what I’m saying. You don’t break up a happy marriage. Not even a happy marriage, you do not break up a marriage trying to work on holding a family together. When you have a child you have only had another child, you walk aside and say, “Do you know what?” Or you encourage the man to go back and make it work. You don’t destroy a marriage. And Lolo didn’t deserve it. Lolo also worked very hard to make this marriage work. She didn’t deserve what came to her. “
The dissatisfaction of the family was clear
Mandira revealed that the Kapur family, including their late father, never supported Sunjay’s relationship with Priya. “He convinced me as if, you know, this was it for him, and she was that way and she was so. And I had a trip with my mom, my father, my sister, my brother -in -law in Goa. And Dad was completely against Priya. He said, ‘He can never marry me. I never want to see her face. And they can’t have children.“No one in this family stood by them to get married. Lolo had the kids, she had everything. They should have made it work. She should have had her husband.”She added that neither she nor her sister participated in the wedding in New York 2017. “I was very clear that my father was against this, and I would not stand by it. My mother had to go because she lived with my brother, but we made it clear that we could not support this, for the only thing Dad said to him was:” Don’t get married and not to have a child. “
Regrets and reflection
When he talked about her relationship with charisma during the severe period, Mandira expressed regret that she did not take a stronger position. “We didn’t actually talk in that time frame … because I think she was obviously upset at me too. And I don’t blame her. I think it was horrible, what happened to the family completely. I feel bad because she was my best friend. I wish I had taken more of a position for her, because she was my best friend, and I should have stood up for her. I should have. I don’t know what I could have done differently, honestly. “Karisma Kapoor and Sunjay Kapur got married in 2003 and welcomed two children, Samaira (2005) and Kiaan (2011). Their marriage ended in divorce 2016 after a long -term legal battle. Sunjay married Priya Sachdev the following year and stayed with her until her death in June 2025.
