According to him, Eshaan's upbringing has never been a cause for concern, despite the fact that his parents no longer live together. Kiran added, "Rinku and I both reside in the same neighborhood, which allows Eshaan to move between our homes. We maintain a warm and amicable relationship. There are occasions when we plan activities together, and Eshaan never feels the absence of either his father or mother. Our son grasped at an early age that his parents weren't compatible, and he has handled the situation admirably. We've consistently reassured him that, regardless of the circumstances, we will always be there for him when he needs us."
