Charun on being a single mom

Charu told ETimes, “Sometimes it is exhausting and frustrating but then you have to handle things. Two days ago, she was not having food and I shouted at her, she started staring at me and began to cry, I felt very bad. I also started crying and as a mother sometimes it gets difficult how to handle things. We both are learning with each other.”

She added that she experiments with the child’s food and daily activities, and they are both growing together as a mother-and-daughter duo. She also mentioned not having support and said that all kids are raised differently, just as all mothers’ journeys are different.

Roz ghar dekhne jaana (Going house-hunting every day) with my daughter and then there were days when everything would get finalised but at the last minute something would happen and I would not get the house. I’m a single mother and top of that an actress so people don’t easily offer their house for rent.”
