Bollywood actor, Arjun Kapoor appeared in an interview with a publication and revealed that his mother Mona Shourie never said anything bad about his father Boney Kapoor even when he left her for Sridevi.
Kapoor said, “I have had many women shape me consciously or subconsciously. My father was a working man and my mom couldn’t work things out and eventually, he decided to get married again and have another family. I didn’t spend as much time with him.”
He added, “I have always had my nani, my mom and my sister. So I have learnt to empathize with the other sex far sooner than other boys would. The maturity that I got is from my mother who taught me to be a certain way."
He further added, "My mom never festered any ill feelings towards my father, even when she had every right to poison us. That’s basically the root of why I’m somebody who’s broad-minded. My mother could have easily told me, ‘Your father has left us high and dry and he has decided to be a certain way'.”
The actor concluded, “I don’t remember a day when my mother spoke negatively about my father. That’s where I learnt from. Today, when I have grown up and walk a little bit in my father’s shoes, I understand why I love my father. He, for all his flaws, also has a lot of strength. He is a very lovable man so she loved him.”
