Arjun Kapoor's sister, Anshula Kapoor, has been making her own identity with her work as an influencer. She has been inspiring women who are uncomfortable with their body types and who receive unwanted trolling for being overweight. Not only this, but Anshula even raised awareness about PCOD by talking about her own journey. Recently, she talked about her parents, Boney Kapoor and Mona Kapoor's ugly divorce after her father married Sridevi.
Recently, in an interview on Hautterfly, Anshula talked for the first time about growing up as the daughter of divorced parents. She revealed that back in the '90s, people never knew what to say when her parents parted ways. However, many started questioning her upbringing and family values, which made her go into a shell. She said:
"People started talking about family values, my upbringing etc… I resigned into my own shell, and was trying to figure out what this new normal was all about."
Anshula further revealed that earlier, she lived in a joint family, and it was her grandmother who ran the house. However, when her mother moved into her own place, she managed it all. She was the caretaker, bread earner, problem solver, and whatnot. Anshula was quoted as saying:
"Eventually, when we moved to our own space, mom had to become a one-person army. She was the caretaker, the lovegiver, the problem solver, and the breadwinner. She was both parents in one, and it was like she had ten hands to take care of us."
Anshula also revealed an interesting anecdote about her growing up with a six-year-old brother, Arjun. She revealed that despite the age gap, her mother had set the same rules for both of them. However, since her brother, Arjun, was older, he was always expected to look after her.
Arjun never fails to root for his sister. Just a few days ago, he attended an event wherein Anshula was reciting a poem which she had written about their mother. The clip started with Anshula being on stage, and the doting brother recording her gig on his camera. Anshula revealed that it was her mother who often told her to do whatever she wanted to do and be whatever she wanted to be. By the end of the video, Arjun and Anshula were seen hugging each other.
