Nitish Bharadwaj Shares His Daughter Said She Is ‘Disgusted’ To Call Him Father, Claims Facing Abuse In Marriage
Actor Nitish Bharadwaj shed light on the impact of the ongoing legal battle on his two daughters and discussed his perspective on the institution of marriage.
New Delhi: Actor Nitish Bharadwaj, known for his portrayal of Krishna in B.R. Chopra's Mahabharat, recently filed a police complaint against his wife, Smita Gate. In a recent interview, the actor shed light on the impact of the ongoing legal battle on his two daughters and discussed his perspective on the institution of marriage.
When asked about the possibility of remarriage, Nitish responded, "In this marriage, I have faced extreme amounts of abuse of all sorts, and even now with parental alienation, my two children are being taken away from me. If I tell you only the two lines my 11-year-old daughters told me, ‘Papa, we are disgusted to call you our father,’ this is what one child told me.”
Nitish reflected on the painful toll of parental alienation and questioned why such sentiments arose despite his efforts. Nitish said, “Why is the child saying this after doing everything?”
The actor, known for his spiritual inclinations, acknowledged that coping with these challenges remains uncertain. However, he draws strength from his spirituality, philosophy, meditation, and the guidance of his guru and closest friends.
Nitish clarified, "It’s a lie that I am asking for money. I’m asking for my money that I was cheated of. I feel I’m cheated. So today, it is my children’s battle I’m fighting."
Despite the tumultuous circumstances, Nitish expressed his enduring belief in the sanctity of marriage. He said, "The institution of marriage is special to me. I believe in it. I have seen many, many successful marriages, including my parents’ marriage."
Nitish Bharadwaj had filed for divorce in September 2019 at the Mumbai Family Court. He had earlier told Bombay Times, "I filed for a divorce in the Family Court in Mumbai in September 2019. I do not want to get into the reasons why we separated. The matter is in court right now. All I can say is that sometimes divorce can be more painful than death as you live with an amputated core.”
Prior to his marriage with Smita Gate, Nitish was married to Monisha Patil, and the two separated in 2005.
