Anshula Kapoor remembers life after father Boney Kapoor married Sridevi: ‘Because of the partner that dad chose…’-OxBig News Network

Arjun Kapoor’s younger sister Anshula Kapoor, who made her screen debut this year with reality show The Traitors, opened up about the same in a recent chat with Nayandeep Rakshit. Anshula explained how back in the 90s, when Boney Kapoor divorced Mona Shourie Kapoor and married Sridevi, divorces and separation were very uncommon in India. Remembering her childhood, Anshula shared, “I was in the first standard, and what started happening was there were families who didn’t want to associate with what was happening in our lives. They didn’t want their children to come into our house, and be part of any friction. In the 90s, you went to some child’s house after school, right? I remember that there was a drastic shift in the way that my classmates were behaving towards me, and the way that their families were behaving towards me. It was a very emotional and a very confusing time to be in school.”

Anshula went on to add, “Because of the partner that dad chose, unfortunately or fortunately, it became a lot more public, because they were both public figures. Had they not been that public, it would’ve been easier for us to deal with.” She explained that apart from the emotional toll that this took on her, Anshula was also dealing with the confusion of not having her father at home.

Today Anshula is an entrepreneur and a body positivity as well as mental health advocate. Meanwhile, Arjun, Janhvi and Khushi are busy making their name in Bollywood.
