Bollywood star Arjun Kapoor has developed himself as a
family man. After Sridevi’s sad demise, Arjun Kapoor stood by his family rock
solid and was seen bonding with his half-sisters Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi
Kapoor during this critical time. He opened up about his changing equation with
his half-sisters, with whom he had a very rocky relationship previously.
He also opened up on how he wanted his relationship with
Janhvi and Khushi to nurture organically and not swayed away by the mass
opinion outside. He told that he is sure Janhvi and Khushi will find their own
way but he and Anshula are there for them whenever required. He also talked
about their usual meet and greet and told that it is important for them as a
family to unite once in a while and share a meal. "So much happened that
we didn’t have the time to figure things out. Having experienced something as
harsh as that, I wouldn’t wish it for my worst enemy. I know what it feels like
to be in a situation where you’re grasping for life," he revealed to a
daily.
Arjun further added, "I was in Punjab when I got the
news. I called my maasi and sister immediately. I had to do what I felt was
right. That’s what mom would expect of me, to be there for my father and
family. If I can be a good brother and a good son, then why not? Mujhe toh
kuchh achha hi mil raha hai, I’m getting two more sisters and helping my father
feel a little relaxed. People jumped the gun that everything was perfect when
it came to my relationship with Janhvi, Khushi, Anshula and dad."
Explaining more on the relationship he shared with them, he
specified, “It was at a nascent stage as we were still figuring out things. But
we were comfortable with each other and that was a good starting point. Mujhe
darr tha ki zyada baat karne se nazar lag jayegi. I wanted things to take their
own course. Janhvi and Khushi are both sorted. Today, we are able to speak
one-on-one. I know they will figure out life in their own time, in their own
way. Anshula and I are there for them."
He further revealed, "The good part is that we have our
independent lives, but whenever need be, we are there for each other. That’s
how it should be. We don’t have to suddenly become a happy pretentious
khandaan, which is why I took some time. Now, I’m talking about it as there’s a
certain ease and I’ve been able to figure things out. Kabhi kabhi in all the
bhaag-daud, you don’t realise how important it is to connect, sit down and have
a meal with your loved ones. Somewhere, all of us have been able to get that
perspective.”
