Anupam Kher loves to share his mother Dulari Kher’s reaction to various events in his life and other moments, even using the hashtag ‘Dulari Rocks.’ As Kher Sr collected the Dadasaheb Phalke International Award on her son’s behalf, she sent the A Wednesday star a video on what she felt about his victory. Dulari Kher shared her delight and pride about her son’s win, but conveyed that she was nervous to go on the stage and even quipped ‘mujhe kya pata’ over why he won the award.
Anupam Kher shared a video where Dulari Kher has held his award in her hand and she is heard saying, “Bittu, you have got a big award.” She then shared how she was told it’s a big award.
“Raju (Kher) and me were there. There were so many actors, of TV industry, they asked me to go on the stage. I told Raju to go to the stage, they asked Dulari Kher to also join,” she said.
Kher continued, “I was scared and wondered what should I do, they all started saying that they were big fans, and we love you a lot. I only pray that God gives long life to my bachu, may you get all the happiness in the world, you love me a lot and I only hope that continues.”
She also hilariously said, ‘What do I know’ as she was asked about the reason for his win. “He has received lot of awards,” before sharing how he didn’t receive the awards, but it was because of the blessings on him.
Here’s the post:

Kher had earlier tweeted a video thanking the Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival for the honour. He thanked all those who have been a part of this ‘wonderful journey’ of his. He shared how he was unable to attend since he was shooting for the show New Amsterdam in New York.
The DDLJ star shared how he was looking forward to continue making the country and the industry proud. He congratulated the other winers and shared, at that time, that his mother and brother would be present to collect the award.
“Please give them a bigger applause because their contribution in my life and the possibility of reaching this place is much bigger than my working hard on my career,” he said in the video.
