Mandira Kapoor Reveals Family’s Opposition to Sunjay Kapoor’s Relationship with Priya Sachdev; Supports Karisma Kapoor
In a recent interview, Mandira Kapoor, sister of businessman Sunjay Kapoor, opened up about the turbulent times surrounding her brother’s relationships and marriages. She revealed that the entire Kapoor family opposed Sunjay’s relationship with Priya Sachdev, his current wife, while also expressing sympathy towards actress Karisma Kapoor, Sunjay’s former spouse.
Mandira stated that the family was deeply concerned about Sunjay’s choices and did not approve of his association with Priya from the beginning. According to her, their disapproval stemmed from differences in values and lifestyle. Despite this, Sunjay went ahead with his decision to marry Priya in 2017.
Reflecting on Karisma Kapoor’s marriage with Sunjay, Mandira emphasized that Karisma “should have been allowed to have her husband.” She acknowledged that Karisma had tried to make the marriage work but was left to struggle through emotional challenges. The separation, which turned into a highly publicized divorce, drew significant media attention, with both parties making strong allegations against each other.
Mandira expressed regret that Karisma had to face such difficulties and reiterated that the family always wanted the actress to be treated with respect and care. While she did not go into the specifics of the disputes, her remarks suggested that Karisma had been denied the companionship and stability she deserved.
Sunjay Kapoor’s personal life has often been in the spotlight, first due to his marriage with Karisma in 2003, and later, their bitter separation. His subsequent marriage with Priya Sachdev was also met with criticism, not only from the public but, as Mandira confirmed, from within the Kapoor family itself.
Mandira’s candid revelations highlight the long-standing tensions that have existed within the family over Sunjay’s relationships. Her words reflect a mix of concern for her brother’s decisions and empathy for Karisma, who continues to remain an admired figure in the film industry despite personal struggles.
With these remarks, Mandira has reignited conversations around the complexities of relationships in high-profile families, where personal choices often come under public and familial scrutiny.
