Rupali Ganguly’s stepdaughter Esha Verma makes fresh allegations against Anupamaa actor: ‘She physically, mentally abused my mother and me’

Actress Rupali Ganguly who plays the titular role in the popular show Anupamaa has been in the news for all the wrong reasons of late. After some of her co-stars called her insecure, the actress is also facing serious allegations made by her stepdaughter Esha Verma. It all began after an old post from Esha from 2020 resurfaced online and went viral. In that post, Esha had accused Rupali of breaking Ashwin K Verma’s earlier marriage, she even said how Rupali would give death threats to Esha and her mother.

As the matter grabbed media attention, Rupali’s husband Ashwin took to social media to defend her and clarify that she had nothing to do with his divorce. After this post, Esha spoke to Bollywood Bubble and made shocking revelations about Rupali. “I don’t know what Rupali and Ashwin will say now to these allegations and comments. I know my father has said something on X (formerly known as Twitter). He said that Rupali was not involved, and that is the biggest lie because Rupali was the one who came to my house in New Jersey and slept on my mother’s bed—the bed that my father and mother shared. She has done so much, physically, mentally, verbally, and emotionally, abusing me and my mom.”

Comparing Rupali to Anupamaa’s villain Kavya, Esha also went on to share how Rupali pressured Ashwin and made him divorce Esha’s mother. “First things first, it’s both parties’ fault for an affair. But I will say if Rupali has claimed the woman that she is, the women’s advocate for women’s rights, it’s an irony from her character in Anupamaa. (In Anupamaa) she was a wife who got cheated by her husband, who had an affair and whatnot—that is the story of my mother. She (Rupali Ganguly) was Kavya, I don’t watch the show but that’s what I have heard. And she comes into our lives. She made my father to serve divorce papers… my father would run off to India to be with her. And regardless of that, having an affair while being married is completely wrong.”

Before marrying Rupali, Ashwin Verma married to Sapna in 1997. They have two daughters, with Esha, 26, being the younger one. She lives in the USA, New Jersey. Rupali and Ashwin got married in 2013 and also welcomed their son in the same year. As per reports, Ashwin and Rupali were good friends for 12 years before they got married.
