Shweta Tiwari opens up about her parenting style with Palak Tiwari. Shweta said that she wasn't strict, but there were some rules. She spoke about the importance of discipline and punctuality in Palak's life, especially when it comes to setting boundaries. She explained that if Palak promised to return home by 1 am, then she should be at the doorstep at that time — not just leaving the party. Shweta Tiwari on tracking Palak's phone She admitted to tracking Palak's phone and added, "I was a little scared that she is a girl and the society is weird. Even though she doesn't drink, people around her did. She got her first phone when she came to college. She was 16 when she got her makeup. She used to go without makeup to school functions." Shweta Tiwari on managing Palak Tiwari's finances Shweta recalled how she used to manage Palak's spending and said, "She was given a budget. For instance, I allowed her to spend ₹25,000 and if she went from ₹25,000 to ₹30,000, she knew that she would be asked to do household chores to compensate for it. There was a full list of chores. For cleaning her bathroom, she would get ₹1,000, ₹500 for making the bed, and ₹1,000 for doing the dishes. So she would do all of these things, and when she knew she was going to go over budget, she would do extra chores beforehand." Shweta made her mark in the television industry with her portrayal of Prerna Sharma in Kasautii Zindagii Kay. She went on to participate in Bigg Boss season 4 and emerged as the winner of the show. With memorable characters like Sweety Ahluwalia in Parvarrish, Bindiya Thakur in Begusarai, Guneet Sikka Sharma in Mere Dad Ki Dulhan and Aparajita Singh in Main Hoon Aparajita, Shweta became one of the highest-paid actors on Indian television. Now, Shweta's daughter Palak is carving her path in Bollywood. The actor made her debut in Salman Khan's film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan. However, the film turned out to be a box office disappointment, earning only ₹184.6 crore worldwide. She next featured in The Bhootnii alongside Sanjay Dutt and Mouni Roy and was last seen in the movie Romeo S3. She is yet to announce her next project.

Shweta Tiwari Reveals Palak Tiwari Did Chores For Pocket Money: 'Rs 1000 To Clean The Bathroom'
Shweta Tiwari reveals Palak Tiwari had to earn extra money by doing chores. She wasn't allowed makeup till 16 or a phone until school was over. Actress Shweta Tiwari, who became a household name with her iconic role in Kasautii Zindagii Kay, recently opened up about her parenting journey as a single mother to daughter Palak Tiwari. In a candid conversation on Bharti TV's YouTube channel, Shweta revealed how she instilled values of discipline, financial responsibility, and safety in Palak from a young age. 'I wasn't strict, but there were rules in our house," Shweta clarified, sharing that Palak had a firm curfew while growing up. 'If you've said you'll be back by 1 am, then 1 means walking in the door — not leaving the party at 1," she said. To ensure her daughter's safety, Shweta always kept the contact details of Palak's friends — and even their mothers. 'I'd tell her I won't call their moms unless your phone is off. But if I can't reach anyone, I'll start calling their mothers because they would have the driver's number." Explaining her vigilant approach, Shweta said, 'I was a little scared because she's a girl and society is weird." Although Palak doesn't consume alcohol, Shweta pointed out that the people around her might — and she wanted to make sure her daughter was always safe. As a precaution, she also tracked Palak's phone and didn't allow her to wear makeup until she turned 16. Additionally, Palak wasn't allowed to own a phone until after she finished school. Beyond discipline, Shweta emphasized the importance of teaching financial responsibility. 'She was given a budget — say, ₹25,000. If she spent ₹30,000, she'd have to compensate by doing household chores," she explained. Shweta had a detailed price list: 'Cleaning her bathroom earned ₹1000, cleaning the bed ₹500, and washing dishes ₹1000." Palak, aware of the system, would even do extra chores in advance if she knew she was going over budget. Shweta also shared how she handles Palak's earnings now that the young star has a flourishing career. 'I invest most of her money and only allow a certain amount to stay in her account. She jokes, 'Mujhe kangaal kar diya, mere paise nikal liye (You've made me poor, taken all my money).' But I tell her, the savings she has now, no one else does." Shweta ensures Palak signs all the banking paperwork, keeping her involved and aware of how her finances are managed. From setting curfews to assigning chores for extra spending, Shweta Tiwari's parenting style is rooted in love, protection, and practicality. With her daughter Palak now stepping into the limelight with films like The Bhootnii, Shweta's approach seems to have laid a grounded foundation for a rising star.
