The thespian described her mother as “very down to earth, with limitless humility, extreme selflessness to humanity and above all, immeasurable love for our almighty father in heaven. She is an epitome of a living Mother Theresa. Words are not enough to describe her personality, rather she’s simply a divine experience when you encounter her and I am forever grateful to be part of her”.

Recalling the greatest advice mum gave her, she continued: “Mom instilled the importance of serving God in me. I learnt from her the efficacy of humility and forgiveness, and above all, the ability to serve others selflessly while expecting nothing in return.  And that has helped me to where I am today.”
