A couple of days ago, Sanjay Dutt's daughter Trishala shared a cryptic note about parenting and mental health, triggering speculation if everything is fine between her and her father. As the chatter gained momentum, an old interview of Trishala resurfaced where she spoke about how she dealt wih her father's jail term.
What's Happening
During an interview with The Hindustan Times in 2015, Trishala said, "I sent him a Father's Day message already, but for his fans, I can say that they must watch out when he comes back, because he's going to be back with a bang, as usual. He is someone you can't break, and I'm sure his fans will be completely blown away once he's back. Even I'm excited, [and] I can't wait to see what he's going to do."
Sanjay Dutt was convicted for possessing illegal firearms during the 1993 Mumbai Blast. He was sentenced to five years in prison and served a considerable time of his sentence before being released in February 2016, approximately eight months early due to good conduct.
During the period, Trishala used to write letters to her father. "When he went to jail, and I knew I wasn't going to hear regularly from him for the next two-three years, that's when I realised that it's time to grow up. Yes, I was sad, but I had to be strong for my family and myself."
Trishala admitted that the crisis shaped her as a strong individual. "I'm not a child anymore, and I think some people forget that, and expected me to cry publicly, because everyone has seen me in my baby stages while I was growing up in Bollywood, but that's not who I am anymore. Tough situations really strengthen you as a person."
