, is a retired government employee. I've seen her balance work and home so gracefully—it always amazed me how perfect she was in everything. She was amazing professionally, never brought work stress home. At the same time, she was a perfect wife—my father always admired and complimented her. Those are a few things that I have learnt from her to balance life."
Puneett adds, 'Being a mother to three children—me, my brother, and my sister—she never let any of us feel neglected.
Even with her job, she made time to check our studies, cook meals, and just be there for us. Her smile is what starts my day, and her hug is what ends it peacefully. She's always been a strong pillar in my life and has taught me the value of relationships, humanity, and especially the role of women.'
The actor feels grateful to his mother for always supporting him in his career choices, too. Puneett says, 'Coming from a government service background, she never questioned my decision to switch from banking to acting post-MBA. She supported me unconditionally. I owe every success to her for the belief in me.'
