As we step into the month of love, it may not be as goodie-good for every couple. Speaking of love, Esha Deol and Bharat Takhtani recently announced their separation in a joint statement. They share two daughters, Radhya and Miraya. The two tied the knot in 2012 and called it quits after 12 long years.

Apart from being a spectacular actress, Esha Deol is also a doting mom to both of her daughters. In an old interview, she recalled the time when Bharat Takhtani felt neglected by her as she couldn't give enough time and attention to him.

Esha published and launched her book in 2020, and in the process, she revealed quite some intimate details about her personal life. Her book is titled Amma Mia: Stories, Advice, and Recipes from One Mother to Another.

When Bharat Takhtani felt neglected by Esha Deol

In her book, the Dhoom actress opened up about how her ex-husband became very cranky when she was dealing with her two infant daughters.

"After my second baby, for a short while, I noticed that Bharat was cranky and irritated with me. He felt that I wasn't giving him enough attention. It is very natural for a husband to feel this way because, at that time, I was consumed with Radhya's playschool fiasco and feeding Miraya, and I was also between writing my book and dealing with my production meetings. So, he felt neglected," Esha said.

"And I immediately noticed the error of my ways. I remembered the times when Bharat had asked me for a new toothbrush, and it had slipped my mind, or when his shirts hadn't been pressed, or when I sent him off to work without bothering to check what he'd been given for lunch," she further added.

"He's a man of very few needs, and if I couldn't look after him, there was something wrong. I quickly made sure to rectify it. Bharat is different he tells me directly, to my face, if he senses a problem. But there may be men who are not so forthcoming," said the Kaal actress.

She further added, "It falls on you to keep the romance alive. I figured that I hadn't gone out for date nights or a movie with him in a while. So I decided to step out of my tracks, loosen my bun, wear a nice dress, and go out with him on the weekends."
