Mandhira Kapur, the sister of late industrialist Sanjay Kapur, has levelled strong allegations against his wife Priya Sachdev after a family dispute erupted following his death on June 12, 2025.
Mandhira's comments came after Priya made claims about Sanjay's mother drawing Rs 21 lakh per month compensation from his company along with her personal expenses being taken care of.
Mandhira called the claim misleading and said that it is actually Priya who is drawing several crores from Sanjay's company per month.
"There is a difference between blood and an outsider. When my father was alive, my mother was getting much more than what she did even when my brother was alive and that's the truth. Unfortunately she never checked what she was getting... Now, we are checking on whatever is going on. It is shameful that she is only getting Rs12 lakh. It was Rs 21 lakh but after tax and other deductions, she used to get Rs 3 lakh which has now dropped to Rs 12 lakh," Mandhira said.
She further said that Priya gets a much higher amount. "But the outsider is getting close to I would think Rs 3 to Rs 5 crore every month. Because she is getting Rs 1 crore from just one company and she has taken over everything. She is getting Rs 5 crore, and the creator of the company is getting Rs 12 lakh." she claimed.
"She (Priya) is not doing any favour to anyone. It is coming from the company. She thinks she is looking after my mother? I think she needs to have a reality check and rephrase that," she added.
She also said, "It (the company) is still with my mother as my father will always be associated with Sona not Sachdev's no matter how much they try and want, but that is not going to happen. She is not the face of the family or the company. She shouldn't even be around."
