Throwback: When Kalki Koechlin was asked about having a child out of wedlock, 'I was already divorced....'

Kalki Koechlin, who is currently engaged in her new Tamil project 'Nesippaya,' once discussed the trolling she and her partner faced for not being married. Kalki mentioned that it was a deliberate choice for them not to marry.
She and her partner, Guy Hershberg, welcomed their daughter Sappho in 2020. In a conversation, when asked about their decision, Kalki explained that she had already been married to director Anurag Kashyap, and her partner was not interested in marriage.

She shared with Mashable India, “Not being married…I was already divorced. He was like, ‘I’m not interested in marriage.’ So we just took a conscious decision not to marry but we were living together.”
Kalki and Guy welcomed their daughter in Goa and continue to reside there, although Kalki frequently travels to Mumbai for work. The 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' actress mentioned that she tries to keep her trips short to avoid being away from her daughter for too long.

In an earlier interview with The Times of India, Kalki revealed that her move to Goa was primarily driven by her desire for her daughter to grow up in a place surrounded by greenery and ample outdoor space. In the same interview, Kalki shared that she met Guy during an all-girls trip to Israel. He attended the same music school as one of her friends and was one of their contacts while they were there. Kalki mentioned that even though he travels for work, they both return to Goa when not working.
Kalki and Anurag married in 2011 and parted ways in 2015. She made her Bollywood debut with Anurag Kashyap's 'Dev D', alongside Abhay Deol.
She was last seen in 'Kho gaye hum Kahan' last year.
