Mother's Day: Supermoms behind the making of Aishwarya Rai, Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor

Celebrating 100 years of Indian cinema, even yesteryear Bollywood starlets have turned into moms, mother-in-laws and grandmothers. While Hema Malini is a recent entrant into the mothers-in-law club, those like Jaya Bachchan, Babita and Tanuja Chandra are often spotted with their grandchildren at various events. 

Remember Sashi Kapoor asking Amitabh Bachchan, “I have bunglow, bank balance. What do you have?” and Amitabh replying “I have my mother”. God could not be present everywhere so he created mother. When the Bollywood stars are awarded for their films, they credit their success to their moms who are behind their success. 

While many Bollywood actresses are popular for being accompanied by their moms on the film sets, many actors are seen with their moms during their film premieres.

Meet the moms and mothers-in-law who are the major source of inspiration for their children.
