Karan Singh Grover is receiving immense appreciation from fans for his performance in Siddharth Anand's Fighter. The actor is currently basking in the success of the film. In the film, the actor played the role of an IAF officer and Squadron Leader Sartaj 'Taj' Gill. Now, during an interview, KSG has opened up about one of the toughest times of his life when his daughter Devi was diagnosed with two holes in her heart. Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, KSG opened up about the way he managed his work and his daughter's health. For those unfamiliar, Karan is married to Bollywood actress Bipasha Basu and the couple shares a daughter named Devi.
In 2022, Bipasha and Karan welcomed their first child on November 12, 2022, six years after their marriage. The couple announced the child's name. However, after a long gap, the duo shared pictures of Devi on the internet. In an interview with Bollywood Hungama, KSG called her daughter Devi a 'fighter' for bravely undergoing the complicated surgery. The actor said, “If you knew her story, even though she is fourteen months old, she was born with two holes in her heart and we had to have open heart surgery. When Mamta (from Marflix) first heard about it, she thought, 'She's a fighter.' I was like, 'Dude, she's the smallest, tiniest fighter we have, and she was the first.'
KSG also revealed the details about how he and Bipasha came to know about Devi's condition. The actor said that the couple was informed about the two holes in her heart soon after Devi's birth. Karan said, “Well, we didn't really know until the third day of her birth. I would just say that parenting requires some kind of different strength and respect for all parents, man. And I think it was a very, very difficult situation.
Meanwhile, in August 2023, Bipasha went live with Neha Dhupia where the Alone actress spoke about trying times as a mother. Basu also got emotional as he revealed that her daughter has two holes in her heart.
