Mother-in-laws are moms too!

Toral Rasputra as Anandi of Balika Vadhu

On her relationship with on-screen mother-in-law, Smita Bansal:

My mother-in-law has always been my pillar of strength. She has motivated and encouraged me to study and educate myself and to be nothing less than any what I deserve to be. I feel very connected to her and she has never made me feel like a daughter-in-law. I have always been and will always be her "laado".

On playing an on-screen mother to Jagya and mother-in-law to Anandi

My character of Sumitra has immense patience in dealing with every situation she is fraught with. Anandi has always been a very proud child to have and even though I am not biologically her mother in Balika Vadhu, she garners from me the same amount of love and concern as I feel for Jagya (Shashank Vyas). Jagya is my son and I do love him with all my heart.

Dhrashti Dhami as Madhu in Madhubala- Ek Ishq, EkJunoon

On her relationship with on-screen mother-in-law Radha Bhatia

My mother in law gives me the courage to stay strong, independent and makes me feel loved and wanted. Even though our relationship was rocky at the start, she has become indispensible to me now.

Shama Deshpande as Radha Bhatia in Madhubala- Ek Ishq, EkJunoon

On her relationship with on-screen son RK and daughter-in-law Madhu

I'm portraying a role of a positive mother who is quite possessive towards both Vivian Dsena aka Rishabh Kundra and Drashti Dhami aka Madubala. Drashti has been a wonderful daughter-in-law, as she helped to overcome the barriers between Rishabh and me, as we were not speaking to each other for 17 long years. Madhu is the reason that actually makes this house a home to live in. She is absolutely an ideal daughter-in-law that anybody would wish to have.

Sonali Sachdev as Parul Vaishnav in Sanskaar…Dharohar Apnon Ki

On her relationship with on-screen daughter-in-law

Bhoomi is the newest member of Vaishnav family and despite of the troubles she is facing currently, she loves my son Kishan unconditionally. She is leaving no stones unturned to fit into this family and get acquainted to the culture and traditions. I will support her in all odds and I am confident that she will prove her worth as a daughter-in-law.

Shamin Manan as Bhoomi in Sanskaar… Dharohar Apnon Ki

On her relationship with on-screen mother-in-law

Bhoomi has not got a warm welcome from the Vaishnav family but her mother-in-law Parul is the only person after Kishan who has understood her and empathized with her. Despite of abandonment from other family members, she has tried to ease my discomforts in every way she can. On this mother's day I would like to especially acknowledge her presence in my life and wish her a very happy day.
