Veteran actor Anupam Kher often talks about his films, but he is rarely seen talking about his personal life. The actor definitely shares glimpses of his mother and other family members on social media, but now for the first time he talked about a very personal aspect of his life and revealed how he feels about not having children of his own. The actor said in clear words without hesitation that he feels the loss of not having children of his own. After 39 years of marriage with actress and former MP Kiran, the actor also talked about this part of his life. Along with this, she made it clear that this desire and absence of hers has nothing to do with her relationship with her stepson Sikandar Kher.
Anupam feels deprived
While talking, Anupam Kher said, ‘I did not feel like this much earlier, but now sometimes I feel like this. I think in the last seven-eight years. It’s not that I’m not happy with Sikandar, but I think it’s a joy to see a child grow up. The bonding is a joy to watch; This is an honest answer. I could avoid answering this, but I don’t want to do that. But, that’s okay. It’s not a tragedy in my life, but sometimes I think it would have been a good thing.’
Why did I feel empty?
The actor further said, ‘During this time I was very busy with work, but after the age of 50-55, I started feeling emptiness. This mostly happened because Kiran had become busy and so had Sikandar. I work with children in my organization Anupam Kher Foundation. We work with kids a lot and sometimes when I look at my friends’ kids and things like that… I miss the kids, but it’s not a feeling of loss.
When did Anupam Kher get married?
