MUMBAI: Sushmita Sen has always lived by her own terms, both professionally and in her personal life. Her portrayal of transgender activist Gauri Sawant in the recent web series Taali on Jio Cinema adds another layer to her remarkable career.

Unlike Gauri, who had a tumultuous relationship with her father, Sushmita shares a strong bond with her father, Shubeer Sen. This connection extends to her daughters, Renee and Alisah, who also share a close relationship with their grandfather.

In a recent conversation with Siddharth Kannan, Sushmita addressed the question of whether her daughters miss having a father figure.

She said, “They don’t miss having a father figure because they have never had a father. You only miss what you have. And now, when I suggest to them that I should get married, they will be like, ‘What? For what? I don’t want a father’. But I may want a husband, it may have nothing to do with you! They don’t miss a father. They have Tata, my father and their grandfather. He is everything for them. Anytime they need to have a father figure and a great example, he is the man.”

Sushmita adopted Renee when she was just 24 years old. She brought her second daughter, Alisah, home in 2010. Reflecting on her journey, Sushmita expressed pride in her younger self, emphasising that becoming a mother was her wisest decision.

During an event, she said, “The wisest decision I made at the age of 24 was to become a mother. It stabilised my life. People think it was a great act of charity and wonderful action but it was self-preservation. It was me protecting myself.”
