Actor Arjun Kapoor said that his mother never pitted any ill will towards his father, Boney Kapoor. Boney Kapoor was married to Mona Shourie, Arjun’s mother when he got in a relationship with the late actor Sridevi. 

In an interview, Arjun Kapoor said that despite all that happened, his mother never spoke ill of Boney Kapoor. However, Arjun reconnected with his dad after the death of Sridevi in 2018.

In an interview, the actor said, "I have had many women shape me consciously or subconsciously. My father was a working man and my mom couldn’t work things out and eventually, he decided to get married again and have another family. I didn’t spend as much time with him. I have always had my nani, my mom and my sister. So I have learned to empathize with the other *** far sooner than other boys would. The maturity that I got is from my mother who taught me to be a certain way."

He also said, "My mom never festered any ill feelings towards my father, even when she had every right to poison us. That’s basically the root of why I’m somebody who’s broad-minded. My mother could have easily told me, ‘Your father has left us high and dry and he has decided to be a certain way'. I don’t remember a day when my mother spoke negatively about my father. That’s where I learnt from. Today, when I have grown up and walk a little bit in my father’s shoes, I understand why I love my father. He, for all his flaws, also has a lot of strength. He is a very lovable man so she loved him.”

He also said that with age, he learned to be more understanding and that he can imagine his parents having gone through certain things that led to separation. He said, "You try and be a good son, because that's what my mother would want," he said.
