Kasautii Zindagi Kay’s 'Komolika' had not only changed the image of vamps on screen but had also set some major life lessons for women. She had dared to be a single mother when society wasn’t too okay with the idea of the same. Yes, we are talking about Urvashi Dholakia, who had tied the knot at the age of 16 and had become a mother of twins at the age of 17. When her kids were just 1 year old, she had decided to part ways with her husband and has been raising her sons, Kshitij and Sagar on her own.
In Urvashi Dholakia’s journey of being a single mother, it is her mother, Kaushal Dholakia, who has stood by her no matter what. Urvashi, her mother and her two sons live together and she calls it ‘home’. On May 8, 2021, she had shared a picture of her family and had captioned it as “Home is wherever my bunch of crazies are! Family above everything I love my Mom & love being a Mom.. we are a proud home of 3 generations we may fight we may argue we may even not speak to each other sometimes but we know that We will Always be there for each other no matter what.”

We all grow up watching our mother, wondering if we will ever be even 1 per cent of what she is! While we can never be her, but we all love it when people find her in us. Urvashi Dholakia also feels proud when people find similarities between her and her mother. A few hours back, she shared a photo collage, trying to replicate her mommy’s pose, and captioned it as “MAA: Trying to replicate mom! Only if I could be half as beautiful as her! When somebody says you look like your mom, it makes me the happiest! So had to do this while going through my photo archives!”
Urvashi is a proud single mother. In a conversation with ETimes, Urvashi had shared that being a single mother, she has worked all her life to ensure that she provides her kids with every comfort. She had said, “Honestly, I have never had the time or inclination to think much about it. I was always busy working and ensuring that both my sons had a good education and comfortable life. But I strongly feel that you need to be yourself and comfortable in a relationship. If you have to change yourself as an individual to be in a relationship, then it’s not worth it.”

In an interview with Pinkvilla, Urvashi had opened up about the negative criticisms she had faced for being a single mother. She had said, “Of course, there are a lot of people who came and went in the interim and said a lot of things to me, a lot. Some said behind my back, some of them said brutally on my face, very personal attacks on me but then if I start all this affecting me, I wouldn't be where I am. I had no choice but to ignore all of them."
Urvashi is indeed as graceful as her mother!
