Money. Legacy. Power.

And a Will that now sits at the centre of one of India’s most explosive inheritance battles.

In this episode of InControversial, Mandhira Kapur Smith breaks her silence — and her words raise even deeper questions about the authenticity of the Will submitted by Priya Sachdev Kapur after the death of industrialist Sunjay Kapur.


For the first time, Mandhira speaks openly about the contradictions, the “impossible mistakes,” and the “rewriting of lineage” she says could never have come from her brother — echoing the very concerns senior counsel Mahesh Jethmalani raised in the Delhi High Court.

“My brother was a particular human being — he would never misspell his own child’s name or forget their address.”


“You didn’t want the Will opened, now you don’t want a forensic. What are you hiding?”

These quotes aren’t just emotional — they go to the heart of why the Will is under scrutiny.

Beyond the legal drama, Mandhira opens up about the darker reality of losing a brother, protecting two children caught in the crossfire, and watching her family’s legacy — built over decades — be pulled away behind closed doors.


This conversation isn’t about gossip or glamour.

It’s about truth, conflict, courage, and a family fighting to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs.


If you think you know this story, you don’t — not until you’ve heard Mandhira.

Watch it — and see how her words challenge everything you thought you knew.
