Anshula Kapoor Says She Once Believed She Was A ‘Burden’ To Her Family

Anshula Kapoor, who was most recently seen in The Traitors, has now got engaged to her long-term beau Rohan Thakkar. Anshula’s life has never been an easy ride and the star kid has time and again been open about it. In her latest interview, she opened up about her mental health and childhood trauma, calling herself a ‘burden’ to others.
In conversation with Pinkvilla, Anshula was asked how her parents reacted to her mental health challenges. She explained that everyone tried to help her understand in their own manner. Anshula claimed that she spoke with Arjun Kapoor as an adult, but exclusively with her parents when she was a youngster. She said “I spoke to mom pretty much not in these words as I feel like I’m a burden to you or I’m a burden to the relationship you and dad had. I think she figured it out without me putting them in these words because I was maybe 8 or 9.”
She went on to say that at such a young age, she blamed herself for her parents’ separation more rather than being a burden. Her mother had to do more than just understand where she was coming from. She also had to get her out of this cycle and mental process because there was no truth in it. Following her mother’s death in 2012, her brother Arjun Kapoor looked after her. Anshula remarked that she used to feel like a burden to her brother.
Anshula also stated that her brother used to listen to all of her logical and illogical arguments for why she believes she is a burden on him, and he tried to make her understand by rationalising her beliefs and providing her with a new viewpoint.
While discussing her father, Boney Kapoor, Anshula recalled that her mother had a conversation with him and informed him that she blamed herself for their split. Anshula said, “So, dad I remember in his own ways, has tried to address this and make me feel at ease and give me the comfort only he could have given me as he was the other parent.”
Anshula Kapoor is officially engaged to long-time lover Rohan Thakkar. She shared the happy news on Instagram, with pictures of a romantic proposal backdrop in Central Park, New York City.
