Esha Verma Talks About Her Father's Extra Marital Affair
In an exclusive interview with Times of India TV, Esha Verma shared, “I understand there are issues due to which a couple decides to part ways and I also don't want my parents to reunite, I went through therapy and understood why it was better not to reunite them but then when you are legally married, you are still bringing your girlfriend to America, flying out to India to continue the affair.”

She further shared that, “My father was separated from his first wife for five years. My parents had a love marriage he had come from California to meet my mother in India and they got married and they moved back to New Jersey. They got married in 1997 and had me in 1998 and weren't legally divorced till 2008. They did have their issues as the couple would but it got worse when Rupali came into the picture and I think that is what is applicated in Anupamaa as well.”

Esha Verma’s Shocking Allegations Against Rupali Ganguly
The recent controversy surrounding Esha Verma centres on serious accusations that she has levelled against her stepmother, Rupali Ganguly. According to Esha, Rupali’s is not what she is. Esha has claimed that Rupali disrupted their family life in New Jersey by engaging in an extramarital affair with Ashwin, leading to the breakdown of her parents' marriage.
It all began after an old post from Esha Verma from 2020 resurfaced online and went viral, in which she wrote, “This is absolutely pathetic. Does anyone know the real story of Rupali Ganguly? She has had an affair with Ashwin K Verma for twelve years while he was in his second marriage. Ashwin has two daughters from his previous marriages. She is nothing but a cruel-hearted woman who has done nothing but tried to separate me and my sister, his own daughters from their father. She further shared that, He used to live in California and then New Jersey for around 13-14 years before moving to Mumbai. The two have one son, not two. I’m speaking out because she claims all over the media that she has a happy marriage with my dad when in reality she’s controlling and psychotic towards him. Whenever I try to call my father, she starts yelling and screaming death threats to myself and my mother. It’s not fair that she ruined the lives of Ashwin’s real family and has been publicising that they have a true love marriage when she’s destroyed others to get what she wants.”

Esha Verma has also accused Rupali Ganguly of being cruel and controlling, alleging that the actress not only hurt her family emotionally but also threatened both Esha and her mother, Sapna. In an interview with Bollywood Bubble, she shared that, “I don’t know what Rupali and Ashwin will say now to these allegations and comments. I know my father has said something on X. He said that Rupali was not involved, and that is the biggest lie because Rupali was the one who came to my house in New Jersey and slept on my mother’s bed—the bed that my father and mother shared. She has done so much, physically, mentally, verbally, and emotionally, abusing me and my mom.”
These shocking revelations have sparked intense media interest, especially because Rupali has long been seen as a beloved figure on the popular TV show ‘Anupamaa’ portraying the ideal mother and wife. The allegations have raised eyebrows, leaving fans questioning the truth behind the public persona of the actor.
