In a throwback interview with Stardust, Pooja Bhatt had spoken her heart out about her parent's broken marriage and its effect on her, "I am lucky that did not have a traumatic childhood, my mom and day used to fight at times and there would be utter chaos in the house, but I was always a silent spectator of it. It of course had a psychological effect on me. I just had to accept it. I do not blame my dad and mom for that matter of splits. Both are equally to be blamed."

Talking about Soni Razdan she said, "Earlier I used to hate Soni for snatching my father away from me. I did resent my dad for leaving my mother for another woman. It was the mom who made me understand practically."

She also stated in the interview that her mother Kiran made her believe not to hate or resent her Dad because he is a terrific man with a good heart.There are many old photos of Pooja Bhatt spending quality time with Alia and Shaheen Bhatt.
