Mumbai, May 14 Filmmaker Boney Kapoor penned a heartfelt tribute for his late mother as the family observed the 13th-day ceremony, a significant part of the mourning period.
Marking the occasion with deep emotion and remembrance, the filmmaker reflected on her enduring influence and the irreplaceable space she held in their lives. Taking to Instagram, Boney shared a photo of his late mom and wrote, “Today is Kriya 13th day since . . . . . . As we mourn our beloved mother, recounting a few lines of rememberence. When lose your mother, that's when everything changes. You don't just lose a parent. You lose your biggest comfort. The one who stayed strong so you could be soft. The one who made the hard things feel bearable. The one who always put you before herself. You realize the silence is louder.”
The post further read, “The house feels colder. And no one calls just to check if you ate. You miss her voice, her scent. The way she knew something was wrong just by hearing your hello. You remember the things she used to do that you took for granted. The small sacrifices. The daily routines. The way she made everything feel safe. You replay her advice in your head like a broken record. You wish you hugged her longer. Told her thank you more. Told her I love you every chance you got. Because now you know. No one will ever love you like she did. No one will ever fill that space. And all you can do is make her proud.
