In a conversation with Rajeev Khandelwal on Juzz Baatt, Bharti Singh had revealed that her father had passed away when she was only 2 years old. After his demise, it was only her mother who earned for the family and their family was in financial turmoil. She had shared:
"My father passed away when I was two, and my mother was just 22-years-old back then. So young and only soul to take care of three brats. We were highly in debt and our financial condition was really bad. My mother used to work in a factory, and she used to complete the pending work at home. I have grown up listening to the irritating sounds of a sewing machine day in and day out. It still haunts me, whenever I hear it on roadside."
Bharti Singh had further shared that money lenders used to abuse her mother after her father's passing away, asking her to clear the debt. Bharti had shared that she had used to feel helpless as she had seen her mother struggling to make ends meet. The comedienne had revealed that these lenders had hurled abuses at her mother, and this had made her dislike men. In her words:
"People used to come and abuse my mother, ask her to pay the loans. And that is when I realized that my mother was handling so much of mess all alone. I even started hating men for the same reason. I started avoiding and running away from our present conditions. All this toxicity used to upset my mother and I used to cry. On every 14th of the month my mom used to be so depressed and sad- thinking how she will pay the loan the next day."

“My mother wanted to abort me due to our financial condition, but eventually she didn’t and today she is very proud of me. I remember this one time, just before my performance, my mother was admitted to the ICU and I wasn’t keen to perform. She motivated me and made sure that I gave my best which I did.”
Like every daughter, Bharti Singh also shares a warm bond with her mother. Time and again, the doting daughter has credited her success to her mother. For Bharti, her mother is the most amazing woman, who had left her settled life in Amritsar to help her daughter pursue her career in the entertainment industry.

"I'm not insecure about my body weight, or my money. I can take care of it. But I can't imagine or think losing my mother. I can't get her back. I would want to go before her."
