Sarika and Kamal Haasan ended their 16-year marriage and Sarika boldly left their home with her daughters Shruti Haasan and Akshara Haasan. In an old interview, Sarika shared the tough realities that led to her decision.

Talking to Simi Garewal, Sarika said she felt good about ending her marriage with Kamal Haasan not just for herself but also for her mother. She explained that it wasn’t a sudden decision: “I did something that was honestly good for me and my mother. It had to be done. It comes after a lot…you don’t make such decisions overnight.”

Sarika revealed that when she left then she only had a car and Rs. 60 with her. She had no plans for her next move and relied on friends for support: “I left with Rs. 60 and my car. I just kept up with my friends—went to their house and had baths at their home and at night I slept in my car.”
