Pandya Store Actress Shiny Doshi On Her Strained Relationship With Father: "He Used To Call Me A Prostitute At 16"
New Delhi: Shiny Doshi, known for her work in popular shows like Pandya Store and Saraswatichandra, recently shared a deeply personal chapter of her life. In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, the actress opened up about her difficult relationship with her late father and shared the lasting impact it had on her. Shiny, who began her acting career in 2013 with Saraswatichandra, said her father left the family when she was very young. The responsibility of supporting her mother and brother fell on her shoulders early in life, and with it came not just financial challenges but also emotional trauma. Recalling a painful memory from her teenage years, she said, "My father used to call me a prostitute. My print shoots in Ahmedabad sometimes went on till 2 or 3 in the morning. My mother was always with me - I was just 16. But when we returned home, instead of asking if we were safe, he would throw accusations. He'd say, 'You're taking your daughter out at 3 a.m.? Are you pimping her out?'" "He had a terrible tongue," she added, holding back tears. When asked if she has forgiven him, Shiny responded, "These are knots in life that can't be untied. I've taken them as life lessons, but even now, I sometimes feel very weak. I never had a father figure to back me up, to say, 'I'm here for you.'" Her father died in 2019 during the Amarnath Yatra. Shiny shared that they hadn't spoken with him for two years before his death. "There's a guilt that lingers," she said. On the work front, Shiny was last seen in Pandya Store, a remake of the Tamil show Pandian Stores.

Shiny Doshi Breaks Down Recalling Father's Abuse: ‘He Called Me A Prostitute At 16'
TV actress Shiny Doshi opened up in an emotional interview about her traumatic childhood and estranged relationship with her late father. Television actress Shiny Doshi, known for her roles in popular shows like Pandya Store, recently opened up about a dark chapter from her past that continues to shape her even today. In a heart-wrenching interview with Siddharth Kannan, Shiny revisited the deeply painful relationship she shared with her late father—a man she says abandoned her family when she was just a child. Shiny, who made her acting debut in 2013 with Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Saraswatichandra, revealed that her father left her mother and brother when she was very young, forcing her to start working early to support the family. But it wasn't just the financial burden that weighed on her—it was the emotional trauma that cut deeper. Fighting back tears, she recalled a moment that scarred her as a teenager: 'My father used to call me a prostitute. My print shoots in Ahmedabad sometimes went on till 2 or 3 in the morning. My mother was always with me—I was just 16. But when we returned home, instead of asking if we were safe, he would throw accusations. He'd say, 'You're taking your daughter out at 3 a.m.? Are you pimping her out?'" 'He had a terrible tongue," she said, her voice cracking. When asked if she has been able to forgive him, Shiny admitted, 'These are knots in life that can't be untied. I've taken them as life lessons, but even now, I sometimes feel very weak. I never had a father figure to back me up, to say, 'I'm here for you.'" Shiny's father passed away in 2019 while on the Amarnath Yatra. By then, they hadn't spoken in two years—something that continues to haunt her. 'There's a guilt that lingers," she said softly. Despite the pain, Shiny continues to forge ahead. Having earned praise for her recent performance in Pandya Store—an official adaptation of the Tamil series Pandian Stores—she stands as a symbol of resilience, refusing to let her past define her future.
