SHAMA SIKANDER, actor
The most cherished memory with my mother has been my whole life actually. All the time I spend with her has been great. Most of my childhood so memorable. My mother was always there, she was always loving and caring. She would do anything to make us happy. The most valuable thing that I have learnt is patience. I love her immense grace.
TAAPSEE PANNU,
actor My mom’s internal strength is what I become a huge fan of once I grew up. The way she handled three really different personalities at home ( my dad, my sister and myself), the way she became a shock absorber of our madness and still kept us together. She was the bridge between my dad and me and still continues to be. She doesn’t give up on any one of us.
RAVEENA TANDON, actor
My mom is the strongest, bravest, most compassionate lady I know. There is no single memory that I can pin point, but I can say that all the good work I do, I owe it to her. I have learnt the value of giving back to society from her. I learnt to love and care for the ones that aren’t privileged enough, she worked tirelessly for children in different orphanages and this is what I imbibed from her.
RICHA CHADDA, actor
What I learnt from my mom is compassion. When I was little, I would kill ants and insects. My mother told me, "Ye cheenti shayad apni mummy ke paas ja rahi ho? ( Maybe, this ant is going to meet her mom?)" That was such a strong phrase for me at the time. It has made me compassionate and ethical over the period of time.
SOPHIE CHOUDRY, Actress, singer, VJ, Entrepreneur
I’m blessed that every single day with my mum is a memory. She is not only my mother but my manager so we are forever travelling the world together for my stage shows, exploring new places, new cultures and making memories together! From taking us to Disneyworld countless times to our first nightclubs, from dropping me to college on my first day to agreeing to move to India with me, I shall cherish everything. But the most valuable lessons I have learned from my mum are to never give up, never be dependent on anyone and never stop learning.
