Sushmita Sen opens up on a misconception she has been dealing with all through her life concerning her daughters. She insists that the absence of a father hasn't created any imbalance in their lives.

In 1994, when Sushmita Sen won the title of Miss Universe for India for the first time, she became an overnight sensation. During her winning night, in one of the questions, Sushmita was asked about what adventure she would like to embark upon. The actress had said that she’d want to spend time with kids as according to her, kids bring in a lot of adventure. They weren’t just words for her as she went on to adopt two daughters and become a single mother.

However, being a single mother has been challenging in its own way. If not personal, the challenges have been to deal with people’s perception and questions. Recently, the actress was asked in an interview with ETimes, one misconception about her she’d like to break about being a single mother

She responded with an amazing answer from her journey. She said, “That there is an imbalance (in her daughters’ lives) because they grew up without a father. Fathers are important but like everything else in life, you don’t miss what you’ve never had. So, that concept is different. So, it’s a misconception.”
