Rupali Ganguly is one of the famous faces in the television industry. The actress has been winning hearts with her role in the show, Anupamaa. Talking about her personal life, Rupali has recently found herself in the midst of a controversy, as her step-daughter, Esha Verma's old post made rounds on social media, sparking a new rage against Rupali. Esha has accused her step-mom for not only being indulged in an extra-marital affair with her father, Ashwin, but also ruining their happy family. Now, in a recent interview, Esha made some shocking claims about Rupali Ganguly.
In a recent interview with Free Press Journal, Esha Verma stated that Rupali was her father's third wife. She mentioned that her father and mother were together from 1997 to 2008, and when she was only 2 years old, Ashwin and Rupali were indulged in an affair. She also added that there's a possibility that Rupali and Ashwin's relationship began in 2000, and the proof is the actress' social media handle, wherein she would post photos with her now husband and then-beau, Ashwin. In Esha's words:
"Rupali is my father’s third marriage. My mom is the second and I do not want to speak about the first because that is literally not my place. My parents were married from 1997 to 2008. There is proof that Rupali has posted and my father as well that they were together and bestfriends and lovers and all that. I am not sure what year, but you can see it on their profile. But I know when their affair started and at that time I was just 2 years old. So we can say in the year 2000 is when it began.”
In the same interview, Esha Verma slammed Rupali Ganguly and said that she has horrible values. Esha said that as Rupali is the face of many women, she has not embodied that in her real life. She remarked that it was understandable that her father was at fault too, but Rupali, being a woman, should not have pursued someone who was married with two kids back then. Esha can be quoted as saying:
"As Rupali being the spokesperson for many women, she has not embodied that in her real life. She has very horrible values and I can’t even speak on it. It’s so terrible, it’s so dark. Umm, it is understandably my father’s fault. As a man, you have destroyed your own family, I totally agree. But if you are a woman who knows that a man is in a relationship and is married with two children and is currently in the marriage, why would you go out of your way to pursue that?”
Going further in the interview, Esha stated that when Rupali was not married to Ashwin, she would often go to their house in New Jersey, and would stay in her parents' bedroom. Esha accused Rupali of stealing her mom's jewels. Esha mentioned that whenever she, along with her parents, used to come to Mumbai to meet their grandparents, Rupali would come and abuse them. Esha mentioned that Rupali even threatened her and her mom, and said that the former was not her father's kid. Esha mentioned that she doesn't have the evidence of all of these threats and abuse Rupali had for them, as back then, technology was not that much advanced. In Esha's words:
"Rupali would come to my house in New Jersey and stay in my parents bedroom and steal my mother’s jewellery. And when we would come to Mumbai to visit my grand parents, she would come to my house and would abuse my mother and she threatened me and my mother and she claimed that I was not my father’s kid. I do not have evidence of those texts because this was long time ago and we did not have the technology that we have today. So I don’t have the screenshots and all of that but these were the texts we would get.”
Esha Verma said in the interview that when her father left them she was 13 years old, and now she is 26, thus the pain has always been constant. Esha revealed putting up tweets about this on social media, but Ashwin would come and ask her to take down the posts every time while tagging them as a lie. Another problem was that social media was not this advanced, for which, her posts would be futile. Esha said she never followed these instructions from her father as she knew it was not fair, and they were just trying to save their reputation.
