Jasleen Matharu’s father Kesar Matharu was as unaware of her relationship as we were. He himself introduced Anup Jalota to her daughter so that she could hone her singing skills. However, he never had a clue that his daughter for dating her Guru for more than three years. While talking to Aaj Tak, he said that he will never approve of her relationship with Anup Ji.
Talking about Jasleen Matharu’s relationship with Anup Jalota, he said, “I had no clue about this. I was told they were entering as guru-shishya jodi. She never told me about this. When they made the announcement, my entire family couldn't believe their eyes. We all got very angry. Within ten minutes, I started getting calls from friends. My wife (who was watching the show) got up and went inside. It was very unexpected.”

When he was asked whether he would approve of their relationship, Kesar Matharu said, “No. Never. It's not possible. If she asks me, I will never give my approval to this relationship. I will not give my blessings to them, and I would rather keep my distance from this. But I will definitely ask my daughter why she did it. If she admits to her relationship with him, I will maintain my distance from them.”
Jasleen’s father was so upset that he couldn’t talk to anybody for two days. He even went on to say that he will not visit his daughter if Bigg Boss call him in the show.
