In another interview, Upasana Kamineni talked about her husband, Ram Charan’s bond with their daughter, Klin Kaara. She said that her actor-husband does more than what a mother is generally expected to do. Upasana further added how her daughter’s face lights up whenever she sees her dad, and mentioned that she is sort of jealous of their bond. In her words:
"Whatever a mom is expected to do, I think the dad is doing more than that. We're equally raising Kara, it's beautiful. Ram is a hands-on dad. She's a daddy's girl, and I am extremely jealous. When she sees her dad, her face lights up. There's a special smile, a twinkle in her eyes, and I'm like, come on.”

Previously, during an interview with the Hindustan Times, the businesswoman discussed juggling work and motherhood and shared how women face many hardships when they choose to get married or have kids. Upasana shared that people need to change certain mindsets. Opening up about facing challenges after being a mother herself, Upasana said:
"Being a mom, it is a huge battle for me to be as productive at work as I was before. I am trying my best and know I am going to excel at it. These are mindsets that we have to change. Corporate India must make amendments to make it easier for women in India. POSH committees helped with that. I am working with companies on flexible maternity leaves.”
