In a recent interview with Zoom, Mahhi opened up about abandoning foster kids Rajveer and Khushi and had stated, “We have not adopted them (Rajveer and Khushi). They have parents. The father is still working with us. They have a mother. It is just that they have stayed with us since the time they were born. They call me mumma and Jay dadda. We were all together. We were like a happy family. There is nothing like legal adoption. I do not know where that came from.”

She revealed that both Rajveer and Khushi have returned to their hometown because their grandfather felt that it will be safer for them to be at their hometown amid the coronavirus outbreak. In March this year, Mahhi had written a long post addressing the rumours that she had abandoned her foster kids.

Her post read, “A lot of you have been questioning, a lot of you have been assuming, a lot of you have been writing anything and everything and it’s just FAIR! Yes, we are parents, FOSTER Parents! Tara entered our lives as a beautiful blessing but that doesn’t change our feelings for Khushi and Rajveer”.
It could be further read as, “When Khushi came into our lives, we became parents but a part of us knows that the decisions and the first rights belong to her father and mother. They had always wanted the kids to spend some time in Mumbai but eventually return to their hometown and be with their extended family and grandparents. And we feel that there is no one who can judge what is better for a child, than their parents.”
Stay tuned for more such gossips.
