Khushboo is such a person who doesn't hesitate to speak her heart out. She got involved in controversies too because of her straight forward attitude. This actor-turned-politician, who recently took charge as a member of National Commission for Women, revealed that she was 8 years old when she was sexually and physically abused by her father. She spoke about this in her interview with Journalist Barkha Dutt.
Khushboo said, “I think when a child is abused, it scars the child for life and it’s not about a girl or a boy. My mother has been through the most abusive marriage. A man who probably thought it was his birthright to beat up his wife, beat up his children, sexually abuse his only daughter. When my abuse started I was just 8 years old and I had the courage to speak against him when I was 15.”
