Malvika Sitlani on Single Motherhood, Separation & Her Newest Relationship| Karishma Mehta | Ep 41

[@70352006]

I am a single mother. Went to the hospital all on my own, gave birth, was figuring out AirBnB and places to stay in the hospital after giving birth. Above all I had no family support system neither in the hospital nor after I was discharged. My father was involved in domestic abuse and my mother passed off when I was 7 due to this unhappy marriage. The loneliness and missing of warmth for not having anyone beside you in the hospital hits at a mental level. You crave for the comfort of warm cooked food instead of ordering on Swiggy and so many liitle things. My daughter and I grew from there and today she is going to be 3 years. For all the happiness she bought in my life , the pain of the past pales in front of her and I hope she doesnot breakdown when she gets to know her biological father abandoned us because he hid his marriage and was having multiple affairs.

[@humansofbombay2801]

All the power to you! 🙏🏻

[@zen........]

I don't even know how to react or respond to this story I just read. First of all, I can't even believe it is real, when it is actually real !! Can there be anyone more powerful than you right now. I mean look at your strength!!! What a blessing amidst the trying times... from someone who didn't know how to interpret God to how I have learnt it now... all I can say is, PRAY. Whether you have faith or not, pray. Miracles will start to happen. From there your faith will grow stronger. 🙏❤🎉 May God bless you and your child and provide everything you both ever want. 🙏

[@70352006]

Thank you for your encouraging words and your prayers.

[@70352006]

​@@humansofbombay2801- Thank you. Maybe you could conduct interview of people like us so that the masses and lesser privileged can also connect.

[@TheKatChatStories]

You are so brave and your daughter is lucky to have you ❤

[@pripri8814]

@29:38 "i will never know what i never had" i felt so bad. I am a mother of a 3 yr old son. May we raise sons who respect women, not afraid of responsibilities and can be the man for her girl. Give yourself all the love you have girl. You deserve the world ❤🎉

[@humansofbombay2801]

❤️❤️❤️

[@jignajoshi8687]

Yes this sentence is so hard to even hear

[@kc0369]

But this is very weird that influencers openly share about their positive and good relationships but do not talk about what went wrong!

[@namratakarira8662]

This needs to be mutual, if ex partner is not fine to share all this then they can't share.

[@soumyacs1552]

she does n did speak about separation, unplanned pregnancy, single mom raising her etc in her channel. Don't be so quick to judge story with half baked info

[@sadhanapandey5441]

Or is it all that u are interested in?

[@TheKatChatStories]

Why you are interested in other’s personal life? Social media is a place where people like to share their happiness.. some people don’t have any problem with sharing bad things but doesn’t expect this from everyone

[@riddhisinha8475]

I completely agree with you and for anyone saying that, why are you so interested in her personal life and half-baked knowledge and stuff like that... well.. Influencers who choose to share their personal life, and only good part of it are actually setting unrealistic expectations!!! It's very important to also share the grey areas just for people to understand that it's not all rosy. Because if you believe so much in the community you buit, don't just share happiness but also the sorrow!!!

[@maithileedhage2101]

The amount of pain she went through and now looking at her standing all by herself feels so powerful but disheartening coz the girl like her deserved all the happiness in life!

[@manishaaswal8728]

Cried multiple times while watching this....omg women have unreal strength

[@Justttawoman]

Agreee … Same

[@sukannyamajumdar5934]

She was radiating through the whole show. She sounds like a superwoman❤

[@simranwho]

She was not like this before. She always thought her life was perfect with a perfect long term relationship, good beauty career all this before 30. But pain is your best teacher, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. She is now more mature and an amazing person.

[@preetapantvyas8045]

I am 64 years old and believe me I am actually impressed by her life story and her ability to communicate it all so well without any ill will and rancour towards anyone and with so much gratitude and humility!! God bless you ❤

[@humansofbombay2801]

Thank you so much for this! 🙏🏻❤️

[@rajeshwarishetty2702]

I can totally get how difficult life turns up to be. My husband passed away when i was 8months pregnant and now i have a 2 month old child.. life everyday is task to live in but iam trying to hard for myself and my baby. sometimes motivation videos life this helps. i would still say Abi has daddy to go to but my child just solely have me 😓. Just praying we become so strong that few things at least becomes easy for us to survive.

[@jmmat230]

Reading the comments here really shows how many out there really need support and courage. Thanks for such authentic conversations ❤

[@noimisha]

Idk I do understand totally that it’s best to be separated and be individually happy with yourself, the other person and anyone associated with y’all, rather than stay in an unhappy relationship. But what I don’t understand is that if you are separated and you’re saying that you both can not be in a relationship and still support each other’s lives, then why is Akhil not being present in both of your pregnancy also being talked about? Like if you’re truly saying that you can be individually happy and be there for each other in times of need (without being in a marriage), then where exactly is the support if he want even there in the pregnancy and you had to do everything alone. This is just a genuine thought considering what’s being discussed about mostly in this topic.

[@zazaje25]

Malvika is one of the strongest woman i know....she is the best example of a strong woman n i love her so much....from a woman to a woman she slayed ❤

[@ziyaFerns]

Malz keeping god first in all the matters..that's the best part of her

[@nitikasharma2062]

Malvika again conveniently ignored the conversation about a 50,000 job that akhil arranged that she left after 2 days because 'that was not her calling" or "travelling by Mumbai local was not her life". There was enough exaggeration especially when she said that she would do whatever it takes (considering there was no electricity/water, she left 50,000 job after 2 days that was arranged by her bf). Hats off to her brother for shouldering the entire family where his sister had the luxury to choose a career that does not pay for years ( again no food, light and electricity ). I mean, empty vessels make the loudest noises.

[@sara1012s]

Exactly I am from Mumbai suburbs and travel 1.45hrs daily to get to office. I hate travelling but cant even think of leaving job like millions other in Mumbai coz i have to pay the fucking rent.

[@aayushi7874]

True. Let's ignore everything else she said and focus on the menial points you made. You truly are the embodiment of the last line in your rant.

[@aishwaryadas26]

Were you there when she got those 50,000 jobs?

[@nitikasharma2062]

@@aishwaryadas26 She has talked about that job in the past with akhil.

[@nikitasangroula5385]

Who cares about what her boyfriend or husband got her? She did not want it... DEAL WITH THAT... a man or a woman has the right to say i want this to be my life. Stay peaceful

[@ravishingtwinkle3811]

I just dont understand how could Akhil just not connect help comfort her during her pregnancy. Seems like an avoidant who just provide connection in the form of sexual intimacy where women latch on to it as only form of connection .

[@vishwajeetdubey6475]

I am a Lawyer and have seen how ugly it gets for a couple in Court during separation, specially on Child Custody issue, however Akhil is also a good man and a Great Father, that's why unlike other women counselled by their advocates and Family Members to alienate the child from father, Malvika hasn't ever concealed the Baby Girl from her Ex husband and they still meet together. Two people may have compatibility issues wid each other, doesn't makes someone a Bad Father or a Bad Mother 👍

[@mehakdhingra8901]

This sounds hard man.....like legit harddddd.... been a followers of malss for years and what a brilliant women she is I hope god has all the happiness and love for her and Abi in store. :)

@sakshisingh7442: come on she was staying with her in laws after marriage and did a home tour as well of her married house. It’s so strange how these people show how lovey dicey their life is and then in pregnancy partners come closer, but here it’s something different. This shows how shallow life social media influencers live

Not to forget how she never gave up on her and never forgot to be grateful. Here's me wishing to never give up on myself and and use my "sadness to change the course of my life".🧿🌙🌟💛🦋
