Arjun Kapoor has shared an emotional birthday wish for his late mom Mona Kapoor on instagram. Like every year, Arjun has shared a heartfelt wish for his late mother, along with a snapshot of a letter he wrote to her nearly 25 years ago.

Arjun Kapoor’s letter reads, “Mother, what is a mother? Some say it is a second name and form of God. I say a mother is a friend, a brother, and sometimes your father. My mother is more precious than gold, more soft than a petal of a flower, more enthusiastic than a teenager, and more lovable than myself.” The letter is signed “Your son, Arjun Kapoor,” and dated October 6, 1997 as he also added the post script: ‘Keep Smiling’.

He further continued to reiterate his promises to his mother, vowing to never give up again and to gather strength every time the world tries to bring him down and will make her mother proud despite any challenge that comes his way. Arjun also has a tattoo on his right wrist with Maa written on it.

The heartfelt note conveyed the actor’s love for his mother and said life has been a struggle throughout after her passing away. Arjun’s mother Mona Shourie Kapoor died in 2012 after a prolonged battle with Cancer. The actor always advises his fans that one should express their love and appreciation for their loved ones and make them feel special whenever they get a chance.

The Ishaqzaade star took to instagram and shared a selfie video too with the framed photo of his mother in the background. The actor is dating Malaika Arora Khan for the last four years and after keeping it under wraps initially, announced on instagram confirming their relationship and also do not hesitate to indulge in public display of affection.

Arjun Kapoor shared in his post that some people among his fans have strong opinions about him and Malaika, and have not cared to consider their boundaries before speaking up about their compatibility, love quotient, gossiping about the success of their relationship and marriage. He said it feels bad to receive such reactions from audience, as if talking like jananis.

However, more than his success in the films and despite his movies not performing well at the box office, Arjun is loved for his humble, polite and honest nature. Overall, he has appeared in 14-15 films and has had his share of flops and struggle in the Indian Film Industry. Despite this, he continues to work and share his talents with us, which is an inspiration in itself.
