Anshula Kapoor is going through one of the best phases of her life as she is preparing to get married to her fiancé, Rohan Thakkar. Reports suggest that the duo will get married in a grand celebration. For those unaware, Rohan had proposed to Anshula in 2025 during their trip to New York City. Now as Anshula’s wedding grabs all the attention, here’s a look back at when she said that she was a ‘burden’ to her family.
Anshula Kapoor thought that she was a ‘burden’ to her family
Unlike most star kids, Anshula Kapoor’s life has been far from easy. The Traitors star had often opened up about her mental health and childhood trauma. In fact, she even thought of herself as nothing more than a ‘burden’ to others. During an interview, when Anshula was asked how her parents reacted to her mental health challenges, she revealed that everyone has tried to help her the best they could. While she spoke with Arjun Kapoor after she became an adult, during her childhood days, Anshula claimed that she exclusively spoke with her parents. She said:
“I spoke to Mom pretty much not in these words, as I feel like I’m a burden to you or I’m a burden to the relationship you and Dad had. I think she figured it out without me putting them in these words because I was maybe 8 or 9.”
Anshula revealed that even though she was so young, she blamed herself for her parents’ separation. Since she thought this was even more than feeling like a burden, her mother had to do her best to understand where Anshula was coming from. Anshula’s mom was also the one who had to help her get out of this cycle of self-blame, as there was no truth in what she believed.
After her mother passed away in 2012, Anshula’s brother, Arjun Kapoor, became responsible for looking after her. But the actress revealed that she felt as if she was a burden to him too. She shared that Arjun would always listen to her logical and illogical arguments as to why she thought that she was a burden to him. The actor tried his best not to make his sister feel that way by providing her with a new viewpoint.
During the same interview, Anshula recalled that her mother had a conversation with her father, Boney Kapoor and told him how she blamed herself for their split. This led Boney to talk to Anshula and make her feel better too. She was quoted as saying:
“So, Dad, I remember in his own ways, had tried to address this and make me feel at ease and give me the comfort only he could have given me as he was the other parent.”

According to reports, Anshula Kapoor is set to tie the knot with screenwriter-director, Rohan Thakkar on July 6, 2026.
