Jacqueline Fernandez, who recently lost her mother, opened up about personal struggles, getting her big debut Hollywood project and how her family has given her mental strength, especially her parents.
The actress recalled the moment when her parents flew to Italy when she was filming Kill 'Em All 2 with Jean-Claude Van Damme.
'I just couldn't believe. I was doing lines with him (Jean-Claude Van Damme), working with him. He was my icon. I think my entire family. We had this laser disc. My dad was hellbent that if we have to watch Jean Claude, we have to watch him on a laser disc. And cut to, I am on a set with him in Italy. We helped each other with lines. My parents came down and they were like, 'We love our daughter. She made us proud.' Life came full circle. At moments like this you feel it was all worth it–the struggle, the challenges, everything," she told The Hollywood Reporter India.
STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD
The Kick actress, who landed in controversy and faced public controversy due to his connection with conman Sukesh Chandrashekhar, spoke about her personal struggles and said, 'What we go through as actors in the industry, our parents also go through it. Everything, it's out there. It takes so much for parents to still support you through everything. My mother was always proud of me and she would always want me to keep striving and dreaming."
The actress also spoke about her late mother and shared how grateful she feels that she spent some beatiful time with her before she passed away. 'I was lucky that I was able to spend the last few months with her. I always feel I wish I did more. What could I have done more? It takes a lot of time to come to terms with it. I don't think I have still come to terms with it… She was always my biggest cheerleader," Jacqueline said.
