Farhan Akhtar Opens Up About Feeling ‘Guilty’: Speaking about their divorce, Farhan Akhtar has confessed how he had 'guilt' when it came to their kids. The actor-filmmaker opened up on how his children from his marriage to Bhabani have taken their divorce and if it has affected them.

Farhan also joined Rhea Chakraborty for Chapter 2, along with his now-wife Shibani Dandekar. When Rhea asked Farhan if parting ways with Bhabani was hard on the kids, he conceded, it ‘couldn’t have been easy.

He talked about how a relationship that they had (the children did) though was rock solid and perfect in their head is "torn asunder" come the end of the day and there "will be a certain amount of resentment". That maybe, still remains in them somewhere even today he continued.

The 'Dil Chahta Hai' director also mentioned that he felt 'tremendously guilty' towards them (children) at the time of the divorce as it was not because of them. He noted that they were even "kind of collateral damage" emotionally-speaking, as well.

Talking about the effect, Farhan said: “It obviously could not have been easy. Because eventually at the end of the day a relationship that they think in their mind is solid and perfect is being fractured. So there will be some degree of anger… even now I would imagine, within them. Some sadness, some resentment.”

“That is something that with time and conversation there will be some kind of solace and understanding. For me, I did feel tremendously guilty… towards them when Adhuna and I are divorced because it had nothing to do with them. So they are the kind of like collateral damage in some emotional way.”

Meanwhile, Shibani talked about Farhan's family and said, “They are super evolved, very liberal. From his father, mother, stepmother, sister, his children… everybody. There is a certain way of thinking and approaching a situation… where they never made me feel that I am on the outside.”

“I give so much credit to his daughters who have been raised by their parents to be super-thinkers, their awareness of the world and the environment, and the construct of the family is so understood and accepted.”
