This isn’t the first time Revathi has offered such glimpses into her family’s emotional core. In an earlier post about her younger son, Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha and True Beacon, she reflected on the timeless nature of a mother’s love.

“Whatever height our children go, for mothers they will always remain babies only. A major part of a mother’s brain will always be occupied with her children and grandchildren. That is why no one can replace a mother.”

Her words struck a deep chord with readers, many of whom praised her humility and the truth in her reflections about motherhood and unconditional love.
