Arjun Kapoor recently talked about his father Boney Kapoor’s second marriage with Sridevi and falling in love with him again; read on

Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor is one cloud nine with his two films release Sardar Ka Grandson and Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video. 

In an interview with Film Companion, Arjun Kapoor opens up about his relationships with his step-sisters, Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor. 

He addressed his father, Boney Kapoor’s second wedding with late superstar Sridevi. Also, his late mother Mona Shourie Kapoor and how he misses her every day. 

He said, “My mother’s upbringing came in my head. She would’ve told me to be by my father’s side regardless of what obstacles we face, because of a choice he made where he fell in love. And I respect my father for falling in love again. Because love is complex. And we would be silly and churlish sitting here in 2021 saying that you only fall in love once. It’s very Bollywood-ized. Love is complex, love is complicated, love isn’t always about being in love.”

He added, “It’s about compatibility, there is friendship, there is saturation. There is unfortunate frustration, people go through different phases in life. You could have been in love with somebody, and you can fall in love with somebody after that, and that has to be understood. I don’t agree... I can’t say I’m okay with what my father did because as a child I felt the repercussions, but I understand it. I can’t say ‘theek hai, hota hai (It’s fine, these things happen)’, because I will always wonder. But when I rationalize it as an older person who’s dealing with his own relationship highs and lows, you understand.”
