Sehban Azim: Only a mother can teach you the unconditional form of love

Actor Sehban Azim, known for his performances in shows like Dill Mill Gayye, Bepannaah, Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai, Thapki Pyar Ki, Spy Bahu, and Tujhse Hai Raabta, speaks with deep admiration and gratitude when it comes to his mother, Dr. Nigar Azim. For Sehban, his mother has been the strongest influence in shaping not just his personality, but his understanding of life itself.“It’s a known fact that children are mostly influenced by their parents, and I firmly believe that the earliest influence comes from the mother,” he says. “Most of my learning has come from her. The foundation for basic learning, manners, etiquette, and self-awareness was laid by my mother.”The actor credits her not only for teaching him values but also for nurturing emotional sensitivity and empathy. “My understanding of other life forms, empathy, coexistence, sharing, and even my sensitivity towards life came through her constant efforts,” he shares emotionally, before adding, “In the literal sense, mujhe insaan banane waali meri Amma hain.”Talking about Mother’s Day celebrations, Sehban says he prefers keeping things simple yet meaningful. “If I’m around her, I usually take her out for coffee or for her favourite food. If I’m away, I send her flowers because she absolutely loves them,” he says.He also acknowledges the countless sacrifices his mother made while raising him and his siblings. “I always thank her for all the efforts and sacrifices she made to raise us so beautifully. But no matter how much I say, she simply brushes it off and says, ‘Bete yeh toh har maa ka farz hai aur humse jo hua humne kiya,’ as if it was nothing extraordinary,” he says with affection.For Sehban, a mother’s love remains unmatched. “Only a mother can teach you the unconditional form of love, and my mother does it effortlessly,” he concludes.
