Ayaan talks about Kunickaa’s affair with Sanu
Ayaan, in an interview with Sidharth Kanan, stated he was born years after the affair and never met Sanu. While no longer in love, Kunickaa continues to admire Sanu’s work. “She genuinely loves the artiste. She doesn’t love the man anymore, I can promise. And my mother isn’t the obsessive type. It isn’t an ego thing. When I googled him, and asked her about him, she said, ‘He was a very important man in my life. I used to look at him as a soulmate, and everyone should experience that kind of love once in their life. It was toxic. Very, very toxic.”
Kunickaa had revealed that the romance spanned roughly six years and remained private out of respect for Sanu’s marital status. Ayaan said, though painful, the relationship left a mark, one from which both mother and son are healing. Ayaan added that their shared experiences helped strengthen their bond. He reflected on their parallel romantic journeys—“when I had girlfriends, my mother had boyfriends”, underscoring how their mutual understanding enriched their relationship.
