Shahid Kapoor’s Mother Neelima Azeem BREAKS Silence On Trolls

Shahid Kapoor’s Mother Neelima Azeem BREAKS Silence On Trolls, Says ‘I Don’t Even Drink’

Actor Shahid Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter’s mother, actress Neelima Azeem, has often spoken with candour about her personal life. In a recent interview with Zoom TV, Neelima opened up about the judgement she has faced over her three marriages and how social media scrutiny still affects her.

Neelima was first married to actor Pankaj Kapur, with whom she has son Shahid Kapoor. She later married Rajesh Khatter, and the couple welcomed Ishaan Khatter. Her third marriage was with Ustaad Raza Ali Khan. While Neelima says she has learned to accept herself over the years, she admitted that the comments made about her personal life online can still be deeply hurtful.

Neelima Azeem On Social Media Judgement

Speaking about the toxicity of social media, Neelima said, “Just the other day, someone commented that ‘sharaab pee kar kya haal ho gaya hai (see what condition she is in due to drinking)’. I don’t even drink. Social media makes statements without any truth."

Reacting to being blamed for her failed marriages, she said, “I married very simple men who had no money, but who I thought were great people and very talented. I never married for material or riches. I never sought a relationship in my life where they would build my career for me or invest money into my businesses; this is not my way of life. I did whatever I could in my capacity, I did theater, TV, I have hosted, danced, as an actress, I have 27 best actress awards, I have worked with the finest actors, I never talked about it or blew my own trumpet."

Neelima added that she now feels the need to speak up because silence often allows others to rewrite someone’s life story.

She said, “But now I feel I have come to a place where I must speak because if you don’t tell your truth, people suppress your voice, change your facts. As time passes, you realize that you are being defamed. What’s sad is that another woman is doing it. How do women do this to each other? I didn’t want to end my marriage, but when things happen, there is a reason. It’s very easy to blame the person."

Neelima Azeem On Marriage With Pankaj Kapur

In an earlier interview with Vickey Lalwani in December last year, Neelima had spoken about her marriage with Pankaj Kapur and their separation.

She said, “I separated from Pankaj Kapur when Shahid was three, when I was a very young girl. I have stopped overanalyzing and intellectualizing things, but introspection is always there to evolve. As you grow older, there are quite a few moments when you reflect on things. Unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to be; nobody gets married to separate, they get married to stay together forever. Maybe we were very different people, and also marriage is not about what anybody did or what happened, it’s about where you are in your mind or which phase you are in, in your life. If that vibration doesn’t have the same frequency, it doesn’t sit well."

Neelima On Marriage With Rajesh Khatter

Neelima had also spoken about her second marriage to Rajesh Khatter during an interview with Bollywood Bubble in 2021. She said, “The second marriage would have lasted if certain things hadn’t happened, which were difficult to encounter… It was difficult; it was an impossible feat. I think it would have worked out if there had been more control, more logic, and sense in it. But it went, it flew out. And it happens in Bombay with all the struggle and with all the pressures, sometimes people succumb to it. But I can get up and start walking again, and I have these lovely boys in my life, my sons (Shahid and Ishaan), who were a great inspiration for me and a source of so much happiness and encouragement."

Neelima Azeem On Accepting Herself

In her latest interview, Neelima reflected on her past mistakes and said she has now learned to love and accept herself. She said, “I love myself the most besides my kids. I have never been tough on myself; I have been made to feel ashamed. I fought against it, and finally caved in. If I made mistakes in my life, I didn’t make them consciously, I didn’t do them to harm anybody, I slipped up, and you cannot be beating somebody up for life for that. Who is perfect?"
