May 14, 2023

We live in a society that judges women at every step. Sadly, it judges single moms the most. Rather than celebrating the single moms, who raise their kids on their own, we put them to shame. We scrutinize their each and every step and blame them for not being ‘sanskaari’ enough.

But at IFORHER, we celebrate these rebels, who not only show the courage to stand up for themselves; but also for their kids! Here are some of the single moms, who inspired many women to walk down the difficult path of being a single mom on their own!

Karisma Kapoor

After the bitter divorce from businessman Sanjay Kapur, Karishma Kapoor not only courageously took care of herself but also of her two kids – Samaira and Kiaan. She is not only attending their school activities but also made a comeback in acting with Mentalhood, a web series that focuses on different aspects of motherhood.

Talking about raising two kids on her own, Karisma said, “Just because you are a single parent, you do not need to make up for the spouse’s love by buying your child everything she wants. Be firm on what you can give and what you do not want to give. Set clear boundaries, timings, structures and routines. Keep to the same schedule and pattern as when you were married.”

Sushmita Sen

The former Miss Universe, Sushmita Sen fought against the system to adopt two daughters. Sushmita adopted her eldest daughter Renee(19), when she was just 24 years old. Her younger one Alisah is ten. Speaking about her decision to adopt a child at a young age, Sen told IANS, “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, but it was self-preservation. It was me protecting myself.” Recently, Sushmita made an impressive comeback with Disney+ Hostar’s latest series, Aarya.

Amrita Singh

Popular 80s actress, Amrita Singh, mother of two, actor Sara Ali Khan and Ibrahim, separated from Saif Ali Khan in the year 2002. After which, she has been caring for her children on her own.

Amrita’s daughter Sara said in an interview, “My mother is a huge part of who I am. I look up to her a lot. It is not necessarily about being a star kid, but about being her daughter. She has always led her life in a very simple and real way…and it is not because she has been an actor but because even before she became an actor, she was this ‘bindaas’ and honest person. I have lived with her for 23 years, so I hope some of it has rubbed off me.”
