Mumbai: Ahead of Mother's Day on Sunday, Bollywood actor and former beauty queen Sushmita Sen has drawn parallels between her real self and her reel character Aarya. Sushmita represents strong women and especially mothers who could kill or die for their children under any circumstances.
Talking about motherhood and her character of Aarya, Sushmita said, "Aarya is synonymous with motherhood. She is the epitome of grace and strength. I am elated to be associated with her story and her journey of motherhood. I admire Aarya for being a warrior and surpassing every hurdle that comes her way."
Sushmita describes Aarya as "bold" and said she has emerged as a "fierce lioness who wants to protect her children at any cost." She said, "I have raised my two daughters single-handedly and I know I can go to any extent for them just like Aarya does in the series. I thoroughly resonate with her zeal to move ahead, no matter what and prevail through every hindrance."
