After the feud with stepdaughter Esha Verma, Rupali Ganguly heads to Goa for vacation

Rupali Ganguly may be sipping on coconut water in Goa, but back at home, things are far from peaceful. The renowned Anupamaa actress, currently entangled in a messy feud with her stepdaughter, Esha Verma, has jetted off for a much-needed family vacation with her husband, Ashwin Verma, and their son, Rudransh.

Ashwin took to Instagram to share some candid shots from their flight, captioning the post with ¡°Family time #familia #goa #vacation¡± alongside a picture of the trio looking all smiles. Meanwhile, Rupali re-shared these images on her Instagram stories with some quirky captions. In one, she joked about her son not being allowed to sit in the emergency row, writing, ¡°He wasn¡¯t allowed to sit in the emergency row,¡± followed by a playful one-liner ¡°mere do do chashme¡± in another, showing off her stylish eyewear.

Rupali filed a defamation case

But while the Gangulys are posting carefree vacation pics, Esha has been anything but quiet. The drama kicked up a notch after Rupali slapped her with a Rs 50 crore defamation notice, and Esha didn¡¯t hold back in her response. In an emotional statement, Esha opened up about the years of feeling trapped in a toxic family dynamic, saying that her decision to share her personal experiences was a step toward freedom.

Esha Verma¡¯s clarification

Esha clarified that her intention was never to harm but to give a voice to others who might be facing similar struggles, especially with difficult family relationships. She added that her father and stepmother¡¯s response to her truth was ¡°disturbing¡± and ¡°cruel,¡± accusing them of showing their ¡°true character¡± by punishing her for speaking out.

Rupali, in a bid to remain unshaken, shared an empowering post on Instagram that read, "You have to prove nothing to anyone." With the lyrics of BLACKPINK¡¯s ¡°Money¡± playing in the background, it seems Rupali is all about owning her narrative and letting the haters talk.

As the family holiday continues, it¡¯s clear the vacation is more of a temporary escape from the firestorm back home. Who knows what¡¯s next in this saga, but one thing¡¯s for sure: this family drama isn¡¯t going away anytime soon.
