The actress further added," As a child, I didn’t understand, but now I do. They used to say, ‘Woh ladka hai usko videsh bhejo, usko padhao, usmein paisa invest karo. Parivaar ki saari sampatti ladke ko jaayegi, pote ko jaayegi. Ladkiyon ka kya hai?  They will get married, they are a liability, ek bojh hai". 

The actress even revealed her mom slipping into depression," My parents gave me everything… a good education, but not an open mindset or good thoughts. They didn’t give me the freedom. They didn’t nurture me, never tried to understand me…When I was born mere pariwaar mein maatam chhaa gaya tha. My mother, I am sure, went into depression, poor thing." Mallika created a stir with her boldness in Bollywood since the beginning of her career.
