’’Love you Moms’’ ............ when was the last time you uttered these words to your mom............ More than a week ?????? Time to watch .. Mother India .

I have realised
the importance of a MOTHER in my life upon watching this movie .It truly will get you closer to a very important person in life , one who has got you into this world and has shaped you into what you are today .I make it a point to watch this movie once in 2 months and trust me I am glued it as though I am watching it for the first time .

I identify a lot of similarities between my mother and the lead character Radha , played by Nargis Dutt . A very protective mother who shelters her children from all evils and wrong doings.

’’I was once playing with my friends in the backyard of our house where we used to breed chickens . We found some new born chicks playing amongst themselves and closed in to take a look. Within no seconds and absolutely for nowhere this hen charges towards us with her wings spanned and in utmost anger ..............We all fled from the scene and then closely peeped around the corner only to find out that she was the MOTHER to the chicks ’’ . This is not a story but a true incident that was narrated to me by my mother .

On a similar note , when I was going through a lot of ordeal on a personal front where people around me were trying to sabotage my life and happiness, my mother spanned her protective wings and ensured I was in the safety zone . She fought all odds to make sure I was safe , secured and happy in her arms . It was only after this incident that I came really close to her and shed off the relationship of mother - daughter and we became friends .
Has something like this ever happened to you ??????? Do not wait ..........take her as your friend from TODAY and trust me she can the best one you can ever have in life .

Radha , in the movie other than taking charge of the house also helped her husband in running the house ......... If I relate it to my mom .......yes she has in all possible ways tried to help my father . The first thing that comes to my mind is when we had to buy this new place she , without any hesitance pulled out her jewellery and handed it over to my father . Remember the scene when Radha( Nargis ) hands over jewellery she got at the time of her wedding to her husband Shammu ( Raaj Kumar) ? And that was only for her children , to get some food for them ...... though in our case it was to get her family a decent shelter ..... the ultimate goal being the same .........Happiness for her Family ........her children.

I am sure there is a Radha in every household . She was a very selfless and innocent mother in existence . She lived and brought up her children in the most true , simple and straightforward manner . BUt we also have mothers that teach their flock wicked ways in life for their existence . A vixen is very wicked but a mother vixen is not ..... She may be bad for the world but definitely NOT for her children .... This is applicable not only to the animal kingdom but also to the human existence ...Sounds rude ???? but its being very true and practical .
Kaikae was looked down upon and humiliated by the society and her own sons but what she did was for her own blood Bharat ........ and Ramayan came into existence .Thats the Mother Power!!!!!

Love you mother or you feel that bonding is just not happening ...........watch this movie ......... its gonna work !!!!
