By Bollywood actress Esha Deol and her husband Bharat Takhtani recently announced their separation after 11 years of marriage. In a joint statement provided to Delhi Times, the couple mentioned, “We have mutually and amicably decided to part ways. Through this shift in our lives, the best interests and welfare of our two children are and will be of utmost importance to us. We’d appreciate our privacy is respected.”
While the actual reason for the divorce remains undisclosed, reports suggest that this decision was not sudden, and the couple had been contemplating it for some time. It’s reported that Hema Malini, Esha Deol ‘s mother, is supportive of her daughter’s decision. However, recent reports indicate that Esha’s father, veteran actor Dharmendra, is not entirely happy with the separation.
According to Bollywood Life, a source mentioned that Dharmendra is not against Esha’s decision but is upset about the family breaking up. The report suggests that no parent would be happy witnessing their child’s family fall apart, and Dharmendra, while respecting Esha’s choice, is encouraging her to reconsider the decision. The veteran actor is reportedly concerned about the impact of the divorce on their two daughters, Radhya and Miraya.
The source indicates that Dharmendra believes that such decisions can adversely affect children, and he is saddened by the potential impact on the family. Despite this, he respects Esha’s autonomy and wishes the best for her and Bharat.
