From Amrita Singh-Sara Ali Khan to Karisma Kapoor-Samaira: Bollywood’s single mothers and their darling daughters

Being a parent and raising a kid is not an easy thing to do. Especially if you are separated from your partner or unmarried, raising a child as a single parent can be a daunting experience. However, some of our Bollywood celebs have not only taken this challenge head-on in their personal life but have done a wonderful job at that.

Bollywood is full of such strong-headed women who have successfully raised their kids and share a great bond with their children. From Amrita Singh-Sara Ali Khan to Karisma Kapoor-Samaira to Sushmita Sen-Alisah and Renee, take a look at some single mothers in Bollywood and their darling daughters.

Today, Sara and Ibrahim are all grown up and are one of the well-brought-up star kids we have on the block. Sara, who has successfully made her way into Bollywood, is a spitting image of her mommy dearest. The mother-daughter duo shares a great bond.

Sushmita Sen is one actress in Bollywood who adopted two baby girls without marrying or being in a relationship with anybody. She raised her two daughters like her own and they are giving out some major mother-daughter goals to everyone out there.
