Dear readers, gather around! It’s your favorite Bollywood snoop, Nisha, here to spill some heartfelt beans and give you the scoop with a twist of my signature sarcasm and a dash of wit. Buckle up, because today’s tale is as touching as it is tear-jerking.

Arjun Kapoor is in the spotlight today, but not for his latest film escapade. Instead, he’s tugging at our heartstrings with a deeply personal tribute to his mother, Mona Shourie Kapoor, on what would have been her 61st birthday.

Our dear Arjun, the ‘Singham Again’ star, took to Instagram to share his emotions. Picture this: Arjun, standing beside a poignant photo of his late mother, looking like he’s ready to jump into the photo for a hug. His words, however, do the hugging for him. He writes, "Happy birthday Maa… I miss you all the time, maybe more than ever… We do our best to make you proud, representing you in everything we do." 😢

And just when you think the emotional rollercoaster is over, Arjun drops a video bomb saying, "Happy Birthday, mom I ran out of photos so..Happy Birthday." Talk about a heartbreaker! His post concludes with a promise of a future reunion, suggesting they’ll chat and hug again someday. Someone pass the tissues, please!

Meanwhile, his sister Anshula Kapoor is right there with him in the memory lane marathon. She shares some adorable childhood snaps of them cutting cakes with their mom, and let’s not forget the cake is just the icing on this emotional cake! Her note echoes the longing, "Haven’t cut a cake with you since 2008… Wish I could hug you just one more time." 😢

She even hopes her mom is indulging in her favorite dahi kadhi, fish curry, and rice up in the great beyond. Now that’s one heavenly feast! And with a hint of optimism, she adds, "On some days, it’s this hope that keeps bhai and I going."

For a bit of context, Mona Shourie Kapoor passed away on March 25, 2012, due to multiple organ failure, just before Arjun’s grand Bollywood debut with ‘Ishaqzaade.’ Oh, the cruel timing!

Nisha’s Nutshell: In Bollywood, emotions run as high as the TRPs. Love is eternal, photos are finite, and somewhere in the cosmic cinema, a mother watches over, probably munching on heavenly popcorn. 😊🎥
