Anupam Kher Posts Emotional Tribute After Meeting Mother Dulari
Veteran actor Anupam Kher recently shared a deeply personal moment with his fans. He posted an emotional note and video featuring his mother, Dulari. The post reflects on themes of parenting, ageing, and the enduring strength of family connections.
A Long-Awaited Reunion
Kher met his mother after a significant gap. He described the encounter in a heartfelt caption written in Hindi. "Yesterday, after a long time, I met my mom," he wrote. "She hugged me and got emotional. She gave me two T-shirts as gifts."
The actor then recounted a small, telling incident. A bag slipped from his hand and fell to the ground. When Kher refused to pick it up, his mother became upset. "Mom got angry and I received a proper scolding!" he admitted with affection.
Kher's Insight on Ageing and Purpose
This moment led the actor to a broader reflection. He emphasized a crucial point about caring for elderly parents. According to Kher, children should allow their parents to continue performing everyday tasks.
"The truth is, parents should be allowed to keep doing things," he explained. "It makes them feel alive. It reassures them that they are physically and mentally fine."
He acknowledged a common misconception among children. They often believe they are being protective by taking over chores. However, Kher argues this can have the opposite effect.
The Need to Feel Valued, Not Old
"Sometimes we as children feel that we are being protective and careful about them," Kher noted. "But what they need is NOT to be made to feel old and useless."
He ended his post with a touching apology and declaration of love for his mother. "Sorry Mata! You actually are the youngest member of our home! And that is why #DulariRocks!" The actor also used the hashtags #MomsAreTheBest and #FamilyScene.
The post offers a simple yet powerful message. It reminds viewers that preserving a parent's sense of independence and purpose is a profound form of respect and love. Anupam Kher's candid sharing provides a relatable glimpse into universal family dynamics.
