She is the light of their lives and it’s her generosity that helped us all tide through the initial years, which are the toughest.” When asked, “Since a stepmom cannot take the place of the biological mom, how did Shabana steer the children through their tantrums, teenage rebellion, heartbreak and all of the normal aches and pains of growing up?” Shabana Azmi had retorted, “Just as I would have with my biological child. Sometimes with firmness, sometimes with kindness, sometimes with exasperation, but never with insults or humiliation. I tried to see things from their point of view.” (Also Read: Mahhi Vij Pens A Thank You Note For Her Little Daughter, Tara Jay Bhanushali)
