The distance between parents often completely ruins the childhood of their children. That too at a time when every news happening in film families became gossip. Similarly, Anshula Kapoor, daughter of the Kapoor family, has described her childhood and her parents’ relationship. In the 90s, Boney Kapoor, who had fallen completely in love with his film heroine Sridevi, had left his first wife Mona and his two children. What these children went through during that period, Anshula Kapoor has revealed in her latest interview.
Anshula has talked about her childhood in her latest interview given to Hauterrfly. Anshula told, ‘When we were growing up, we had both sweet and sour memories, but our mother tried her best to give us a good and safe environment. The second best thing was that we were always told the truth, whatever was happening around us. (About the closeness of Sridevi and Boney Kapoor) We were never lied to or hidden. He never thought that the children would not understand anything. Mother always told us the truth and in such a way that we could understand it.

Talking about her mother and her relationship, Anshula said, ‘The best thing was that she always raised me in such a way that I had to be strong and not in such a way that I had to be protected or saved. I was young but I was told all the truth. Be it about the changes in my body or any other topic, I first came to know about all these things from my mother.
Let us tell you that Boney Kapoor, who was the father of two children, had fallen in love with Sridevi. Boney had separated from his first wife Mona to marry Sridevi. Anshula and Arjun had to bear the impact of this separation of their parents. Anshula says in her latest interview, ‘When parents were separating in the 90s, no one knew what to say.’ She further says, ‘In such situations, people start talking about your family values. People start questioning your upbringing. All this was happening. At that time I was completely confined to myself. I was trying to understand this new life of mine.
