‘Feels like a nightmare…’ Sunjay Kapur’s sister breaks silence on Rs 30000 crore family feud, ‘We are being told to…’

Months after Sunjay Kapur's mother, Rani Kapur, firmly declared herself as the rightful heir in Sona Comstar, her daughter Mandhira has now broken her silence.

Amid ongoing family dispute, Mandhira Kapur- sister of the late Sona Comstar Chairman Sunjay J Kapur, has broken her silence on the feud over his brother’s Rs 30000 crore property. Months after their mother, Rani Kapur, firmly declared herself as the rightful heir in Sona Comstar, the mobile tech company, Mandhira affirmed her support for her 80-year-old-mother to get control of the family’s wealth and inheritance.

The dispute within the family intensified after the death of Sunjay Kapur in London, which his mother, Rani Kapur, has described as ‘mysterious.’ She also alleged that she was pressured into signing documents approving the appointment of her daughter-in-law, Priya Sachdev Kapur, as a non-executive director.

“I think it’s a little harsh on my mom to send her this letter saying she has nothing to do with the company she built. She’s 80. How about just respecting the fact that her husband and she made this?” Mandhira Kapur told in an interaction with NDTV.

She also addressed the suggestion Priya gave to Sunjay’s mother to move in their Delhi house. Calling it ‘impractical’ at the moment, Mandhira explained, “I think right now it’s very tough for mum even to go to that house. It is one thing that she got through after dad died, and to go back there with her son gone, it is going to be very hard for her to walk into that house. She’s not emotionally ready to face the fact that she has lost her son… Our life has been one big shock. And, you know, it feels like a nightmare which we want to wake up from.”

While talking to ANI, Mandhira said that her mother, who stood alongside her father through thick and thin in expanding the company, has now been sidelined. She said, “We are treated like strangers and outsiders. We’re not. We’re the ones who’ve done this. This entire thing is done by my father…So, how is everyone taking credit and taking everything out of it? My mother, who is alive, has not got anything to do with it. My sister and I are being told basically to go to hell. I mean, we were not put on any obituary. We were not put on anything… You can try to take it away from us, but it’s in our blood.”
