What Mother's Day means to Bollywood

Mumbai, May 14: Some Bollywood personalities like Aftab Shivdasani and Hansal Mehta say each day is Mother's Day. Others like Rani Mukerji and Raveena Tandon celebrate it to make their mothers feel extra special.

Raveena Tandon: It was my mum's birthday on Saturday. So we celebrated her birthday and brought in Mother's Day. They don't make mothers like my mom. Everyone's mother is special but mine is extra special.

Rani Mukerji: I am gifting my mom with a big renovated house. Fathers are as specials as mothers. But because we come from the mother's womb, it is another feeling altogether. The mom-child relationship is incomparable with anything else in the world. Dad and me are very much alike. I fight with my mom all the time. But I can't do without her. She can kill for her child. I'll understand that feeling only when I have my own child. My brother and I tell our mom to give us a break. But when she really goes away, we beg her to come back. When she goes to visit her sister we are hysterical after two days. Then it is her turn to teach us a lesson. 'You take me for granted. Now you'll realise my value', she teases us when we beg her to come back.

Hansal Mehta (director): My mother is the reason why I am. Every day of my life, every moment of my existence I owe to her and I don't need these superficial commercial events like Mother's Day to realise how special my mother is.

I envy Sanjay Leela Bhansali when he goes up the stage to win awards. I want to win an award so that I can go up there and announce, 'This is for you, mom'. The pride and happiness my success will give my mother is worth more than anything else in the world.

Aftab Shivdasani: I don't need an excuse to celebrate Mother's Day. Every day with my mom is a celebration. I have no specific plans with her for Sunday because I am shooting.

Dino Morea (actor): My mom is in Bangalore. I'll wish her and send her some flowers. Every day with the mother should be celebrated for who she is. But since we are given one special day, then I guess flowers and lots of love will have to do.

Apoorva Lakhia (director): I see it as a day dedicated to a person who is responsible for my existence and made untold sacrifices to make sure I succeed in life. My mom lives in New York. I'll phone to tell her how much I love her.

Farah Khan (choreographer-cum-director): Good you reminded me it is Mother's Day. I had a tiff with her and she is sulking. Even though it wasn't my fault, I'll buy her something nice and take her for lunch and say sorry. I think Mother's Day is a good way of giving mom some extra attention. No matter how much we love our moms we tend to take them most for granted. I see the day as an extra birthday for my mom.

Sammir Dattani (actor): I was shooting in Hyderabad. But I came back for Mother's Day. Ours isn't a demonstrative family. We don't kiss and hug our mom. But I think she knows how special she's to me. I owe everything -- from my excellence in school to my trophies and awards for sports to my current career prospects -- to my mother.

Iqbal Khan (TV artiste): Mother's Day is a very important day. My mom means the world to me. I see her as selfless human being who has always dreamt big dreams for me. My mom is in Kashmir. I'll call her and take her blessings. I know nothing can harm me if my mom's blessing is with me.

Ekta Kapoor (TV serial producer): Mum and I don't need a particular day. But yes we'll have a family meal together for sure.

Sikandar Berry Kher (actor): Since my mother (Kiron Kher) is a single parent, she has been a tremendous source of strength support and encouragement all her life. At her prime, when she could have been building her career she chose to give it all up to look after me. I feel it was an amazing sacrifice.

Even Jaya Aunty gave up her fantastic career to look after Abhishek (Bachchan) and Shweta (Nanda). It is amazing what moms can do for their children. I was lucky to have the best of both the worlds.

Although my mom got divorced when I was a kid she never kept me away from my biological dad. He stays in Mumbai and I continue to meet him as and when I require. In fact, while other kids have one dad I have two. Anupam (Kher) dad is friend, father and a guide as well. My mom has been an exemplary mother in every sense. And I don't mind being called a mama's boy. Aren't all men mama's boys any way? Her love for me is unconditional. And she is such a fabulous actress.
