Esha also claimed that her father forced her to take down her original post and that she was scared after the media picked it up. "Whenever I tried to open up about it, he tried to shut me down," she said adding that he has not been keeping in touch with them and she doesn't even believe he would attend her wedding.
"Why should I listen to a man who never supported us and put women who he had an affair with and put his wife first? He never stood up for me and my mother. He never set up for me; he never publicly apologised to me; he never acknowledged me my sister on the post. It was always him and their so," she added.
