Lara Dutta Feels 'Nervous' and 'Stressed' While Stranded in Dubai with Daughter and Mahesh Bhupathi Former Miss Universe Lara Dutta has opened up about the harrowing experience of being stranded in Dubai with her daughter and husband, tennis player Mahesh Bhupathi, amidst the Middle East conflict. In an interview, she revealed that she felt "nervous" and "stressed" during the ordeal. The trio was stuck in Dubai after a trip to India got disrupted due to the ongoing tensions between Israel and Palestine. Dutta shared that they were forced to stay indoors for several days, with no clear idea when they could leave the country. "I remember hearing explosions outside our hotel window," she recalled. "It was really stressful and nerve-wracking. We were stuck inside, not knowing what was going on or when we would be able to leave." Dutta, who is a mother to four-year-old Saira, revealed that her daughter kept asking her if they could go home, which added to her anxiety. "I was trying to keep myself calm for my child's sake, but it was really tough," she admitted. The actress also spoke about the challenges of being away from family and friends during such a critical time. "We were stuck in Dubai with no phone signal or internet. It was like living in a bubble," she said. Despite the difficulties, Dutta praised Bhupathi for his calm demeanor during the crisis. "Mahesh was really cool and composed throughout the whole ordeal. He kept me and Saira calm, which helped a lot." The situation finally normalized when India's government issued an advisory asking its citizens to leave the UAE due to safety concerns. The trio managed to return home safely. Dutta's experience serves as a reminder of the uncertainties that people face during times of conflict and crisis.#India #Israel #Dubai #UAE #Palestine #Lara_Dutta #Saira #Mahesh_Bhupathi
