Anupama Parameswaran has made more revelations about her past relationship and the emotional abuse she says she faced. In a recent interview, the actress said her former boyfriend made her feel ashamed of being a woman, her career and even her periods. She also revealed that she once wanted to have a large family but no longer feels the same after the experience. Anupama said she was made to feel that many of her normal emotions and actions were connected to her menstrual cycle. According to her, whenever she questioned her former partner about something he had done, he would dismiss her concerns by saying she was PMSing or would soon get her period. She said this gradually made her feel ashamed of being a woman.
The actress also spoke about how the relationship affected her confidence. She said she was made to feel bad about being an actor and about her achievements. Anupama had earlier revealed that she went through what she described as two years of narcissistic abuse and that she slowly started losing herself during the relationship. Anupama also revealed that she once dreamt of having children and even imagined a family with many children. She now says that she does not want children, which she connected to the impact of the relationship on her outlook towards life and relationships. She has not named the person in any of her statements. However, her revelations have led to continued speculation on social media because she was previously rumoured to be in a relationship with actor Dhruv Vikram. The two worked together in Bison Kaalamaadan. Anupama has never publicly identified Dhruv as the person she was referring to.
For now, Anupama continues to speak about her experience without identifying her former partner. The revelations have brought renewed attention to her personal life, but the claims should be viewed as her account of a past relationship and not as a confirmed allegation against any particular person.
