Bollywood star Sanjay Dutt’s daughter Trishala Dutt has shared a deeply reflective note on relationships, self-awareness, emotional responsibility and reciprocity. Sanjay Dutt’s Daughter Trishala Dutt Drops Cryptic Note, Shares Insightful Message on ‘Silent Abuse’ and Emotional Manipulation.

Trishala took to Instagram stories, where she shared a long note emphasising that growth cannot be done for someone else and that staying in a relationship without accountability slowly leads to self-depletion. “You cannot grow for someone else. And this isn't about punishment or leaving your relationship, it's about reality.” She pointed out that when one person consistently “avoids reflection, refuses to take responsibility, repeats harmful patterns and shows no real effort to change”, the relationship stops being a space of love and becomes emotionally draining.

Trishala wrote: “YOU become the one who bends, explains, regulates, forgives, and adapts while they stay the same. That is not love. You stay only where there is reciprocity of insight, not perfection, not speed, but movement.” Trishala also urged people to look at relationships objectively, asking questions such as whether apologies have translated into changed behaviour, whether boundaries are respected, and whether distance is met with understanding or punishment.

“So ask yourself these questions, not emotionally, but clinically: Over the past 6-12 months, has this person shown any consistent pattern of self-examination? Have apologies turned into changed behavior? When you pull back, do they lean in or do they punish you? When you set limits, do they respect them or reinterpret them as rejection?” She concluded by stating that staying despite repeated emotional neglect is no longer compassion, but participation in one’s own exhaustion. “If the answer is mostly no, then you staying is no longer compassion. It's straight up participation in your own depletion. And that's on you.” 'The RajaSaab' Pre-Release Event: Prabhas Praises Sanjay Dutt’s Screen Presence, Says He 'Consumes the Screen' (Watch Video).
