Sangita Ghosh recalls her first time holding her baby girl Devi: It changed something in me permanently

Mumbai, May 7 (IANS) Actress Sangita Ghosh, in a rare expression has spoken about her daughter Devi ahead of Mother’s Day.

Sangita Ghosh who portrays the character of Gulab in the show ‘Tu Juliet Jatt Di’ shared, “Holding my daughter Devi for the first time changed something in me permanently. I don’t think I will ever be able to fully put it into words. You suddenly understand every mother who has ever loved their little bundle of joy.”

She added, “That realisation has given an entirely different dimension to how I essay the role of a mother. In Tu Juliet Jatt Di, Gulaab is an overprotective mother whose love for her son Nawab is absolute and all-consuming, but the show explores something that I think every family quietly grapples with – the very thin line between protecting your child and not letting them grow.”

She added, “Being a mother myself, I understand that love, but I also understand the responsibility that comes with it, to raise a child who feels free, not just loved. This Mother’s Day, I want to celebrate every mother who is brave enough to loosen her grip, even when every instinct tells her not to. That, to me, is the most courageous kind of love. Happy Mother’s Day!”

Actress Sneha Wagh who essays an important role in Mahadev Vs Mahadev, spoke about her mother and her childhood memories around her.

“Growing up, my mother made running the household look so effortless that it took me a while to grasp the kind of effort it takes to pull that off. It was only when I stepped out into the world, started working, started living away from home, that it hit me all at once.”

She added, “Every value I stand by every time I choose kindness over convenience, I know it’s her upbringing that has become like a muscle memory. Playing Vidya in Mahadev & Sons brought me the opportunity to depict her mannerisms on screen. Vidya is the kind of woman who holds an entire family together without anyone fully realising she’s doing it; she is the glue, the warmth, the constant that everyone comes back to.”

She added, “I have seen that woman. I grew up with her. And I think that’s why this role feels so close to my heart. This Mother’s Day, I don’t want to say anything grand. I just want her to know that I appreciate her more than words can convey and everything I am, I owe it to her. I love you, Mom.”
