Anupam Kher reveals biggest lesson learned from mother Dulari, calls parents' blessings "the greatest thing"
Mumbai, March 7
Few bonds in the world only grow stronger with time, and actor Anupam Kher and his mother, Dulari Kher, are a perfect example of that.
Whether it's playful banter at home or cute interactions shared online, Kher often gives his followers a glimpse of the special bond he shares with her, something that fans have grown to adore over the years.
Speaking to ANI recently, Kher opened up about the biggest lesson he has learned from his mother. Reflecting on the values she passed on to him, the legendary actor said he has learned "patience and tolerance," recalling the words that best describe what his mother taught him while growing up.
The actor also spoke fondly about his mother's spirited personality and how she continues to enjoy life's little moments with childlike enthusiasm.
"My mother got married at the age of 16, so she is 18 years older than me. Yesterday, Harman ji typed a birthday wish for me, and Boman ji had also come, so he was singing an English song. My mother was clapping as if she goes to rock bands and parties every day. I think if you have the blessings of your parents over your head, what could be greater than that?" Kher told ANI.
Fans are no strangers to such heartwarming glimpses from the actor's personal life. Kher frequently shares moments with his mother on his Instagram, often leaving his followers touched by their candid and affectionate interactions.
Earlier this year, he posted another such moment shortly after wrapping up the shoot for 'Khosla Ka Ghosla 2.' Returning home after the schedule, the actor was welcomed by his mother with excitement. In a video he shared online, Dulari Kher could be seen greeting him lovingly and gifting him two T-shirts, a gesture that melted hearts on the internet.
On the professional front, the 'Tanvi The Great' star will next be seen in 'Khosla Ka Ghosla 2,' the sequel to the beloved 2006 film directed by Dibakar Banerjee. The original film remains a fan favourite for its relatable storytelling and memorable performances.
Kher also has other projects lined up, including the upcoming film 'Fauzi,' starring Prabhas. Earlier in the day, the makers of the much-awaited film unveiled a new poster featuring the actor on the occasion of his 71st birthday.

"Patience and tolerance" – what profound lessons from his mother. In today's fast-paced world, we often forget these virtues. Hats off to Dulari ji for instilling such values. Truly, our elders are our first gurus.
While it's lovely to see, I sometimes feel these celebrity posts about family can feel a bit performative. Not saying his bond isn't real, but it's a curated glimpse. The real lesson is to practice that patience and tolerance quietly in our own lives, not just talk about it online.
The part about her clapping like she's at a rock concert is so adorable! It shows age is just a number when you have a youthful spirit. My own nani is the same way. These stories cross all cultural boundaries.
As someone who lost his mother last year, this hits hard. You truly don't realize the value of those blessings until they're gone. Cherish every moment, folks. Wishing Dulari ji a long and healthy life.
It's refreshing to see a Bollywood star talk about core Indian values without any filter. In an industry of glamour, he keeps it real about family. Also, so excited for Khosla Ka Ghosla 2! The first one was a classic.
