Bubbly television actress Ami Trivedi says why her mom didn’t shed a tear on her bidaai.The chirpy and bubbly Ami Trivedi has become a household face thanks to her popular lighthearted serials like Sajan Re Jhooth Mat Bolo and Papad Pol. On the eve of Mother’s Day, the television actress says, “I am super-close to my mother. It may sound clichéd but whatever I am today is because of my mother.
She is everything in life for me. I truly believe in the saying that ‘Since God can’t be everywhere, he created mother’”.
Ask the recently married actress on some fond memories relating to her mother and she says, “My mother didn’t cry during my bidaai. When I got married, I was expecting my mom to cry, but very surprisingly, neither did she cry, nor did I. I had somehow prepared myself that I won’t cry on the occasion and will come back to my mother’s place in a month’s time. But I was curious to know why my mother didn’t cry and she told me even she had prepared herself. My parents stay in London but my mother said that she had prepared herself to shift to Mumbai after my marriage to be close to me”. What would she be gifting her mom on this Mother’s Day. Ami says, “I usually don’t need any special occasion to gift my mom. But on her birthday and on Mother’s Day, my brother and I don’t let my mom do any kind of work and let her take complete rest. Otherwise my mom is always up to something or the other but we treat her like a Princess on this particular day”. Though being part of daily soaps, Ami Trivedi isn’t doing the regular saas-bahu serials. Nevertheless ask her who is her favourite screen mother and she says Apara Mehta. “She plays my mom in Sajan Re Jhooth Mat Bolo. She is literally partial towards me and treats me like her own daughter”. However Ami can’t help adding her favourite screen sasu to the list as well. “Alpana Buch who plays my mother-in-law in Papad Pol is as much adorable. Unlike Apara Mehta, she doesn’t pamper me but is rather strict. But she is very caring and always keeps a check on my eating habits. I am a bigtime foodie but she ensures that I eat health food like fruits and don’t gain weight”.
