Actor Arjun Kapoor and his sister Anshula on Saturday penned heartfelt tributes for their late mother, Mona Shourie, on the occasion of her 11th death anniversary. Sharing a throwback picture with Mona on Instagram, Arjun poured his heart out, and said that he is still mourning her death.

The candid picture that he shared shows him as a young man, much before he became an actor. He wrote, “I never cared what anyone said or felt cause I always had u In front of me to make me realise who & what I was… 11 years have passed since u become the shield that protects me from beyond but I still wish u were here because in this cruel world today I try & handle all the hate but I really miss ur (your) love which made me deal with everything with a smile on my face & made me a better person a happier person a calmer person perhaps maybe a more alive soul…”

Arjun concluded his post by describing himself as a “lost child”, and wrote, “I’m still this lost child without u Maa… I look for you everywhere cause I’m lost just like I’m this picture but I always believe ur smiling & looking after me somehow just like in this picture… We shall meet someday soon. ❤️.”

One Instagram user commented, “A mom is everything for a child ❤️ wherever a child is, mom care for them everytime ❤️.”

Arjun’s sister Anshula also remembered their mother and wrote a heartfelt note on Instagram. She wrote, “11 years since I’ve felt your hug, since we’ve seen your smile, since I’ve held your hand. Every year when this day comes around, and we finish another year here without you.. it feels like the hole in my heart gets even larger. Can you feel me missing you? Because I miss you everyday. Love you to infinity and beyond. ❤️♾️.”

Arjun lost his mother a few days before his debut film Ishaqzaade (2012) released in cinema halls. Mona was Arjun and Anshula’s father Boney Kapoor’s first wife. She died of cancer on March 25, 2012.
