The ‘Shararat’ actress wrote, “As you grow through life, not just in age, you start seeing birthdays differently. Yesterday wasn’t about candles or numbers..it was about gratitude. A birthday, I’ve realized, is a gentle reminder that time has passed through you, shaped you, taught you, and gifted you growth. It’s not about getting older… it’s about becoming a little more you. Thank you each & everyone for being a part of my growing journey.. let’s keep growing together..”

From being an incredible mother, daughter, wife, to carving her own space as a restaurateur she does it all with grace, strength and so much love.”

“It’s not easy being an actor’s wife, but she does it with such understanding and patience. I’m so proud of her journey, her rise, and the woman she continues to become. Lucky to have you, baby. Happy birthday,” added Mohit.
