Kajol on Nysa shifting to Singapore: It was very, very tough for me

Kajol and Ajay Devgn's daughter Nysa Devgnhas shifted to Singapore to pursue her studies. The couple visit her often and Ajay admitted in earlier interviews that he was quite shaken since Nysa moved to Singapore.

Kajol revealed in an interview with a leading daily that it was a tough time for the family. "It's really difficult for any parent to be separated from your children, but at the end of the day, it's for their own good. It was very, very tough for me, but not as tough as it was probably for Ajay because I have myself studied in a boarding school away from home. Even my mom (veteran actor Tanuja) and sister (Tanishaa Mukerji) have studied in boarding schools... As parents, we have to do such things throughout our lives... things that are beneficial for them, even though it is painful for us, she said.

Ajay Devgn had said that Kajol is the tough parent between them. "Yes, he is very much true in saying that. I am the tough parent. But I have to say that he backs me up whenever I need to be backed up, so that's good parenting, said Kajol.

Star-kids are these days hounded by the paparazzi for photos. About this, she said, "I don't know if the attention makes them mature too much [before time], but yes, they need to put their guard up, for their privacy, which they are entitled to [even as star kids], and freedom up to a certain point.
