Being a single parent is a difficult task. That too, in a society that judges you constantly, it’s definitely not easy. When you are a real celebrity, you have to carry the burden as the world watches you. There are a number of moms in Bollywood who have boldly taken up the responsibility of raising children single-handedly. These mothers must be appreciated because for women who spend their life in the spotlight, it takes more courage to raise their kids as a single parent.

Let’s have a look at the Bollywood actors who are proud single mothers.
