In March 2021, Kalki opened up about the challenges of being a working mother in an interview with Hindustan Times. “It’s very hard to balance the two, and not suffer from ‘mom guilt’ no matter which way you go. If you spend too much time at home, you feel bad about your work, and if you spend too much time at work, you feel bad about your child. If you are constantly feeling guilty about being a mother, then you’re not able to fully appreciate the good moments. So it’s really important to talk about that guilt, why it’s ther,e and why our society makes us feel like it’s our responsibility as women to raise our children,” she said.
