One of the most followed and highest-paid television actresses, Rupali Ganguly, has been headlining the gossip column for the past few days, but not for a good reason. Her stepdaughter, Esha Verma, has accused the TV star of distancing her and her father, calling her 'controlling and psychotic.'

For the uninitiated, Esha is the daughter of Ashwin Verma from his second marriage. Rupali Ganguly, despite the controversy and accusations, enjoyed a movie with her husband and son on Monday night.

The trio posed for the paparazzi as they were all smiling for the cameras. However, the Anupamaa actress refrained from commenting on the ongoing controversy.

Without saying a word, she just gestured with folded hands in front of the shutterbugs. See the video here.

What is the Rupali Ganguly controversy all about?

It all started after the actress's stepdaughter, Esha Verma, took to social media and shared a rather debatable post, revealing some sensitive information about what she calls 'childhood trauma.'

In her post, which was first shared in 2020, the star kid accused the Sarabhai vs. Sarabhai actress of distancing her from her father and sister. She even revealed that the latter was in a relationship for 12 years with her father, Ashwin Verma, during his second marriage.

Rupali is often seen saying she's in a happy and healthy marriage, calling her husband the 'man of her dreams. However, Esha dismissed the same, giving the actress some troublesome names.

Esha said, "I'm speaking out because she claims all over the media that she has a happy marriage with my dad, when in reality she's controlling and psychotic towards him."

Esha Verma also highlighted the disparity between Rupali Ganguly's public image as Anupamaa, the perfect bahu, and her actual values in real life.

"Watching her rise in the entertainment world with a public image so far from reality has only added to the hurt, especially as she plays a character who champions the very values she disregarded in real life. I know I'm risking a lot by speaking up, but if my voice is finally heard, that's enough," she added.

Ashwin Verma defends Rupali Ganguly

Amid all the drama and chaos coming from his own daughter, Ashwin took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and defended his ladylove. This was yet another icing on the cake as it revealed another side of the story.

Verma's post read, "I do have daughters from previous relationshipsmdashsomething Rupali and I have always been open about and that I care a great deal about. I understand that my younger daughter still holds a lot of hurt about the dissolution of her parent's relationship, as divorce is a difficult experience that can greatly affect and harm the children of that marriage."


"But marriages end for many reasons, and my relationship with my second wife had multiple challenges that led to our separationmdashchallenges that were between she and me and that had nothing to do with any other person. I only want the best for my children and my wife, and it saddens me to see anyone being pulled into cycles of negativity by the media," he concluded.

Rupali Ganguly is currently headlining one of the most-watched TV serials, Anupamaa.
