However, in the past, she did have a polyamorous relationship, and it's a personal choice. In her words: 

"Now that I am married and have a kid, I don't think I got time for that because you just don't even have time to see your own partner. But I think that it has happened in the past."

The Shanghai actress explained that polyamorous relationship comes with some strict boundaries. Moreover, it needs crucial consent from both the partners involved. Kalki said it's better when your partners are from your common circle. She was quoted as saying:

"I think you have to be very specific about your rules and boundaries. It means, perhaps, it can't be from your circle. I don't think you can go as deep in a polyamorous relationship. Although I do know people who have managed to have a lifetime and have kids as well and do it."

Kalki shared that having a deep relationship with multiple partners is difficult. However, some people manage it well for a lifetime. Kalki shared that she was young and didn't want to settle down, so she tried a polyamorous relationship but is a different person now. She said:

"For me, it was a very different period in my life; I was much younger. I wasn't interested in settling down, so it was okay. The idea was to be kind of each other's main person but just also be like an experiment. I know people who have done it, but I don't know if I would be able to be as invested in it in the long term."
