Esha explained that though relationships between adults may change, parents must continue to stand united for their children. “When kids are involved, it is important to let your ego aside and have the threshold.

She also highlighted that putting children above personal differences can soften the bond between ex-partners. “The other person has to melt, if it’s possible. And you change the roles. And you co-parent,” Esha shared.

The actress stressed the importance of maintaining a united front for the sake of their children. “For your kids, you have to be a unit. That unit can’t break. Maybe the other unit has broken but for your kids, be that one unit,” she explained. For Esha, the key is to never give up on making co-parenting work.

Taking A Break From Acting For Motherhood

When asked about her decision to step back from acting, Esha revealed it was a conscious choice to prioritise her family. “My break was purely to start a family, and I embraced motherhood twice over. Automatically, as a woman, it’s my choice, I want to give my children that time,” she shared.
