Sayantani Ghosh on Parental Conflicts Impacting Children

The television show Jagadhatri has captivated audiences with its intense drama and emotional storylines. The latest narrative arc focusing on Maya, played by Sayantani Ghosh, and Sharad, portrayed by Ajay Singh Chaudhary, has deeply resonated with viewers due to the emotional struggles of their daughter, Gunjan, played by Pari Bhanushali.

Parental Conflicts and Child Well-Being

Sayantani Ghosh has opened up about how parental conflicts affect a child's emotional health. In recent episodes, Maya and Sharad are separated but not officially divorced, and their emotional distance profoundly impacts Gunjan. Gunjan is a special child who can neither speak nor hear, making it even harder for her to express her feelings. The couple's problems began because Maya holds Sharad responsible for Gunjan's condition. Gunjan misses her father when with Maya and longs for her mother's warmth when with Sharad. Her only wish is to see her parents together as a happy family, but Maya and Sharad fail to realize how deeply their issues affect her.

Sayantani Ghosh's Perspective

Sayantani Ghosh, who plays Maya Deshmukh, shared her thoughts: "Separations and divorces do happen, and sometimes they are unavoidable. But I strongly feel parents need to be extremely careful about how their personal chaos affects their children. Kids learn everything from what they see around them, and unknowingly, we end up setting examples that leave a deep emotional impact. Emotional trauma experienced during childhood often stays with a person for life. That is why parents must be sensitive and responsible while dealing with their differences. No child deserves to grow up in an environment filled with constant emotional distress and confusion. Childhood is a delicate and beautiful phase. I believe every child deserves love, security, warmth, and happiness. Maya and Sharad may be living separately, but their emotional distance is deeply affecting Gunjan. She is a very sensitive child and, being special, cannot always express what she feels. She longs for both her parents equally. When she is with her mother, she misses her father, and when she is with her father, she keeps searching for her mother's warmth. That emotional confusion silently affects a child. Gunjan's character beautifully reflects how children quietly absorb every emotion happening around them, even when they are unable to express it openly. Kids like her are even more emotionally vulnerable because they feel everything deeply but often struggle to communicate. It becomes extremely important for parents to ensure that their child does not suffer emotionally because of their personal issues."
