Karan Johar admits to ‘constant fear’ of facing tough questions from his kids: ‘They will find out things and I will have to be answerable’

In the episode, Neelam Kothari had shared, “I came from work, and Ahana was with her friends. Normally, they are always jumping around, screaming, and shouting. But, this time, there was pin-drop silence. Ahana came to me and said, ‘Mumma, you never told me you were divorced.’ I just died. I was stumped. I had no words. I told Ahana, ‘First of all, how do you know?’ She said, ‘You’re a celebrity, so my friends and I were googling you. The first thing that came up was that you were divorced. You were married.”

Talking about her first marriage, she broke down in tears and shared how she was not fine about changing things about her identity. “I was told to wear Indian clothes, give up non-veg, and alcohol. I was fine with everything. I was also asked to change my name, and I did that, too. A lot of people do that. But, changing my identity? That is something I was not okay with. I reached a point where I questioned myself, ‘How am I allowing this?’ There were several times when I used to be in a supermarket or out on lunch, and someone would come up to me and ask, ‘Are you Neelam the actress?’ And I had to say, ‘No, I am not Neelam,'” she added.

For the unversed, Neelam tied the knot with her second husband, actor Samir Soni, in 2011. In 2013, they adopted a daughter named Ahana. On the other hand, Karan Johar has twin children, Yash and Roohi, who were born via surrogacy in February 2017.
