‘I’m not here to lie’: Mandhira Kapur responds to | Indian Movie News
Amid the continued inheritance dispute within the Kapur household, Mandhira Kapur Smith, sister of late industrialist Sunjay Kapur, has spoken publicly following a defamation case filed against her by Sunjay Kapur’s widow, Priya Sachdeva Kapur.
Speaking to Republic TV, Mandhira described the developments as unlucky and said that points surrounding the household’s property have come to mild only just lately. She supported claims earlier made by her mom, Rani Kapur, alleging that the Rani Kapur Family Trust was created through forgery and manipulation.
“It is unfortunate we are finding out this stuff now… And it’s something we have to call out because the entire estate of my father’s was left to my mother. And it was to be divided after my mother’s sole beneficiary. It was to be divided between all the three siblings and… grandchildren,” Mandhira said.
When requested whether or not she believed Priya Sachdeva Kapur exerted strain on Sunjay Kapur in issues associated to the trust, Mandhira declined to speculate. “I’m not going to comment on that… [But] I don’t think [my brother] was the kind of person to have done this,” she said.
Mandhira also spoke about the influence of the dispute on her mom, Rani Kapur. “What has happened with her is extremely unfair. You know she’s lost her husband. She’s lost her son. She’s lost the legacy which they’ve built together. So we want to make sure she has that peace,” she said.
Addressing the state of affairs involving Karisma Kapoor’s kids, Samaira and Kiaan, Mandhira said the youngsters have been disadvantaged of what she believes are their rightful pursuits. “My father was very clear about my mother being the sole beneficiary and the grandkids being looked after,” she said.
Speaking about Karisma Kapoor, Mandhira added, “Like any mother she wants to make sure kids are secure. They’ve had a big loss in their life. She’s a brilliant support system for her children and she wants to make sure her kids are secure and you know they’ve anyway had such a big loss.”
The inheritance dispute has also resulted in a defamation case filed by Priya Sachdeva Kapur under Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS). The criticism alleges that Mandhira made defamatory statements through interviews, podcasts, and digital platforms, inflicting reputational hurt at a susceptible time following Sunjay Kapur’s death.
Responding to the allegations, Mandhira rejected claims of malicious intent. “I’m not… being malicious or anything. If the truth is what it is, there’s nothing I can do about it. I’m not here to lie,” she said. Questioning the premise of the case, she added, “What is the defamation here? What bit is the defamation? She may not like what is being said but then I can’t help it if it’s the truth… I’m literally telling the truth.”
The legal proceedings associated to Sunjay Kapur’s property and the defamation case stay ongoing.
