Kshitij Tarey employs music as he continues to fight a personal battle to gain access to his kids

The bitter battle that Kshitij Tarey has fought against his estranged wife, and that allegedly led to his separation from his twin children, has been a rather public one. However, despite employing social media to highlight his plight, the musician has found little respite when it comes to gaining access to his children.
“I have no idea how my kids are; they are being manipulated and threatened,” says the musician, whose latest track, Haara nahin, is an ode to those parents who’ve been unwillingly separated from their children. Fittingly releasing his track ahead of Parental Alienation Awareness Day tomorrow, Tarey, known for songs like Ae Khuda and Tose naina lage, says, “The song talks about the pain that families go through. Every year, 1.32 lakh children suffer from parental alienation. Half of these children’s lives are erased due to it,” he says of the day that aims to mark awareness about the pain that kids endure when one caregiver attempts to turn a child against another caregiver.
