“This is my family. Based on love, faith and understanding. We have struggled, worked hard, shed blood to reach where we are today. We have stumbled, failed, stumbled and fallen many times, but we never failed to fight with passion and succeed again. We raised our children with care, never letting them be influenced by success or take advantage of being celebrity children. They never took advantage of the fact that they Who are we extremely proud of our children (sic),” she wrote.
Khushboo slammed those who made derogatory comments about her daughters and said that she will not tolerate anyone insulting her or seeking attention. He also had a message for YouTubers and content creators who, he alleged, were using his family for views and publicity.
She further added, “As a mother, I cannot let any Tom, Dick and Harry disrespect her, disrespect her or use her for 2 minutes of cheap publicity. Their mentality is very cheap, third class and cheap and it clearly reflects their upbringing. I would like to give it back in the same language and manner as they do, but I will not do that. I will not disrespect my mother and her upbringing,” continuing, “This is a very clear message to all the so-called YouTubers. Even the ones who sit for a packet of green notes and talk about us so that they can feed their families.”
Khushboo’s post comes after her younger daughter Anandita, who recently worked as a creative producer on the upcoming Tamil film Double Occupancy, married merchant navy officer Shravan Srinivasan in the presence of close family and friends.

I condemn such conduct by anyone, anywhere.”
