Esha Deol opens up about life post-separation and co-parenting, says 'Single mother...'

Popular bollywood actress Esha Deol recently opened up about her separation from Bharat Takhtani after 12 years of marriage. Highlighting their current dynamics of relationship she doesn't label herself as a single mom.

In an interview with the YouTube channel Mamarazzi, Esha Deol was seen opening up about her life post announcing marriage separation in 2023. When asked about her experience of being a single mother of two daughters with ex-husband, and whether she found it challenging or fulfilling, the actress said that she doesn't like to think of herself as a single mother.

Esha said, "I don't like to think of myself as a single mother because I don't behave like one nor do I let the other person behave that way with me. It's just that in life, sometimes, due to certain things, roles change. And if it doesn't work out in a certain equation of what two people were at one point, you must take it upon you, especially when you have children, the two mature individuals must take it upon them to work out in another dynamic but keep the unit together for the sake of the children. And that's exactly what Bharat and I do."

During her interview she also emphasized a lot on the need of mastering time management and how it has been a key factor in the co-parenting undertaken by her "Because without it, if your schedule goes for a toss, it creates guilt and there is mismanagement...For instance, if one day, I have to shoot for 10 or 12 hours, I try and spend at least 4 hours with my daughters with complete dedication."

Esha Deol is the daughter of legendary bollywood duo Dharmendra and Hema Malini, She and Bharat Takhtani tied knots in an intimate wedding ceremony in Mumbai in 2012, later they were blessed with two daughters Radhya, who was born in 2017, and Miraya born in 2019.
