Early life
Mukherjee spent her childhood in a self-described “simple life” with her father Santu Mukhopadhyay, younger sister Ajopa, and mother Gopa. Her favorite films were Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, Mary Poppins, and The Sound of Music. She was educated at Carmel School, Kolkata, St. Teresa’s Secondary School, and Gokhale Memorial School.
Personal life
Marriage/False accusations of dowry and harassment
In 1998 at the age of 18, she married Promit Sen, son of Rabindra Sangeet singer Sagar Sen. The marriage was unhappy, and lasted just two years, Swastika accused Promit of physically abusing her and locking her out of their home when she was pregnant. She filed a charge against him for cruelty and solicitation of dowry. These charges were subsequently dismissed and Promit was acquitted.
Swastika later filed an affidavit in court stating that her accusations were ‘unfounded, false, baseless and speculative,’ before confessing in a media conference that they were false. Consequently, Promit’s brother sued her for damages in Calcutta High Court and she was held liable for ₹7.7 crore ($1.7 million). According to Mukherjee, Sen filed for divorce in 2000, but changed his mind when she became successful in her acting career. She had one daughter from the marriage, Anwesha, born in 2000.

Controversies
In May 2014, Mukherjee was hospitalized after an alleged suicide attempt. Under strong local protest, Kolkata police detained Mukherjee’s boyfriend Sumon Mukhopadhyay.
On 4 November 2014, allegations were made that she had shoplifted a gold earring from a jewelry store in Singapore. The shop owner filed a complaint against Mukherjee to the organizer of the film festival, but no police complaint was lodged against her. Mukherjee denied the charge and claimed that it might have happened “accidentally.”
