Sushmita Sen’s Lessons on Discipline and Punctuality Shaped Rohman Shawl’s Approach to Life and Career

Sushmita Sen, renowned for her beauty, talent, and resilience, continues to inspire both on-screen and off. Recently, her former partner, Rohman Shawl, opened up about handling public scrutiny and shared valuable lessons he learned from the actress.

In an exclusive conversation with ETimes, Shawl delved into the challenges of navigating public attention on their relationship. He stated, “I actually don't deal with it because it's not my space to be. What people think of me has nothing to do with me. That's where my security comes from. I have to know my truth.” Shawl emphasized that his sense of security is rooted in self-awareness and authenticity, rather than external validation.

Shawl further revealed that outside opinions, even those from close family, don’t sway him. “I believe in self-reflection and addressing mistakes without waiting for others to point them out,” he noted. For him, living authentically and maintaining inner peace are essential for dealing with public scrutiny.

As Shawl shifts focus to his professional life, his career milestones are taking center stage. He pointed out that his reel, following the release of Amaran, garnered 12 million views, signaling a positive shift in public attention towards his work. “I’m optimistic that as my career progresses, the conversation will center more around my work,” he said, acknowledging his responsibility to ensure his efforts receive the recognition they deserve.

Discussing his evolved relationship with Sushmita Sen post-breakup, Shawl highlighted the importance of self-love in nurturing healthy relationships. “True respect for each other comes from prioritizing one's relationship with oneself,” he asserted.

Reflecting on the life lessons he learned from Sen, Shawl shared, "My biggest learning on observing her would be, to be punctual. That's the first thing—that you show up on time." He added, "Second thing will be, that when you are working, there should be no distractions. I think if she or any other person, whoever has made it in life, is known for his/her discipline and punctuality. Once you respect time, everything falls in place."

For those unacquainted, Sushmita Sen and Rohman Shawl were in a relationship for three years before announcing their amicable separation in 2021. Despite parting ways, the duo continues to share mutual respect and a strong bond, setting an example of grace and maturity.

Shawl’s candid revelations offer a glimpse into his personal growth and professional journey, underlining the significance of discipline, focus, and self-reflection in overcoming challenges and embracing new opportunities.
