Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor misses her late mom Mona Shourie every day. Often in Instagram posts, the actor recalls the good old days spent with his mother. Arjun doesn't hesitate to get emotional and talk about the void that has been created in his life. Recently in an interview, Arjun revealed that he and his sister Anshula did not touch her mom's room for six years after her death in 2012. Mona Shourie was producer Boney Kapoor's first wife. She lost her life to cancer.
Speaking to an entertainment website, Arjun said his life feels incomplete without his mother. “Something that I can share now....we had not touched her room for six years. But then the point is, it’s not a normal thing to do, have one room completely locked up forever when you don’t have place in the house right? But it’s just that for me and Anshula, this house is her...So every day I go out make people happy, make myself happy, work, act in movie, celebrate being a star and there’s love and selfies, mazza aa raha hai, shooting kar rahe ho, your living the dream job. And then when you come back home, and I can’t tell her what I did. So it just feels like incomplete. Whatever I do in my life, that void will stay forever,” he said.

Arjun said that he envies people who have their mother’s support. “I don’t know. It’s been eight years (since his mother passed away) but I am still not an expert on dealing with it. It’s not like I can give you any kind of take on it because every day is a new struggle. It’s like your backbone is broken and they tell you to walk. They just snapped your back and suddenly tell you to stand up and take care of yourselves, you got to be a man, be a boy, be understanding, be cool, be sophisticated, be young, be mature, take it with a pinch of salt, don’t react, get emotional, but don’t get too emotional. Everything is being told but you don’t have that stability at home to do those things. So I envy those people who have that stability to go back home to their mothers because that makes a difference,” he said. Arjun added that the stability in his life now comes from his sister Anshula.
Arjun has also been true support to his sisters Janhvi Kapoor and Khushi Kapoor after their mother - legendary actress Sridevi passed away in 2018.
