Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor not sharing a great
rapport with his father Boney Kapoor's second wife Sridevi is not
something which is concealed under the blankets.
Things went worse than before after Kapoor lost his mother Mona. Post that, we
have seen a bitterness in some of his interview when he is questioned
about his relationship with Sridevi or her kids Jhanvi and Khushi Kapoor.
In an interview with a famous news portal, the actor has confessed
that he doesn't really meet his half-sisters. Kapoor told, "We don't
really meet and spend time together so it doesn't really exist." It has
been difficult for the actor to fight all the battles which came his way post
his mother's death. It was his sister Anshula who was by his side all the
time.
He told, "My sister, Anshula,
has stood by me like a rock. She has gone through far worse. She's younger than
me. I still had 11 years with my father living in the house. I had my mother
living with me for 25 years but she only got 20. Imagine a child who has been
through a life where the father couldn't be physically around all the time
after the age of 5. And the mother who was there physically all the time and
then after 20 years, she wasn't there. Imagine the psychological scarring of
that child. She's still more mature, very well-educated, honest and more
sincere than me."
Speaking about his mother, Arjun told,
"How do I reconcile with the fact that she's not here to see that I have
created an independent identity for myself, that I run a house, that I've grown
up to become everything she wanted me to become?"
He further added, "For all the
sacrifices she has made for me, there is something as payback which sits here
right now as I speak to you. I would have liked her to see that. I wish I
was in a position where I could tell her that I have managed to make you proud,
Ma. There's no respite from the death of a mother. I always tell people that
you are allowed to take your parents for granted to a certain degree but don't
underestimate the power of having them around. They are your backbone. You
think it's there but imagine one day it cracks -- you are bound to fall. I have
lived my life balancing without a backbone for the last 5 years."
