In fact Gauri Khan, queen bee of all Bollywood wives, is enough on her own! And when there are buddies Maheep Kapoor and Bhavana Pandey, do we need anyone else?
At the age of 60, my mother started earning her own money. It instilled a sense of pride and confidence in her that I could never see earlier.
Most of us grow up idolizing our mothers. I wasn’t an exception, either. As far as I can remember, I have always been more attached to my mother than my father.
Ma, who never had anyone to support her after marriage, worked extremely hard to bring me up.
Despite coming from a remote village in Bangladesh, she was far-sighted enough to realize the importance of English and made sure that I got admitted in a reputed English-medium school.
