They don’t need to stay under the same roof or be together 24/7. I think both Karisma and I understood that at a very young age, this kind of relationship can also exist. It has existed for almost 35 years with my parents and I see that in the moments when they need to be together, they are always together, but they prefer to have their day to day separately, which is wonderful, “he added.
