Arjun Kapoor gets candid about his relationship with half-sisters Jhanvi & Khushi.
Arjun Kapoor not sharing a great rapport with his father Boney Kapoor's second wife Sridevi is not something which is hidden under the blankets. Things went worse than before after Kapoor lost his mother Mona. Post that, we have witnessed a bitterness in some of his interview when he is asked about his relationship with Sridevi or her kids Jhanvi and Khushi Kapoor .
In an interview with a leading news portal, the actor has admitted that he doesn't really meet his half-sisters. Kapoor said, "We don't really meet and spend time together so it doesn't really exist." It has been difficult for the actor to wrestle 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 said, "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."
Talking about his mother, Arjun said, "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 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."
