Losing a parent is the toughest experience a child can endure in his/her life. The loss is irreplaceable, and none can fill the void it creates in your life. Ten years ago on October 13, 2007, Sonu Sood lost his mother. On her death anniversary today, the actor penned down a hauntingly beautiful letter in the loving memory of his maa, sharing a sweet picture of hers.

13th Oct 2017... Dear Mom,
it's been 10 years..TEN LONG YEARS since I last saw you. I never knew that 13th Oct 2007 will be the most ill fated date in my life. You were my pillar, my strength, my pride someone who knew everything. All that you said years back came true maa. I became an actor, someone who wanted to make his parents proud n I did that to an extent mom, I am still giving my hundred percent n I promise I won't give up , after all I'm the only son of PROF: Saroj Sood, Someone who taught the whole world how to live their dreams. 
My only regret in my life, that I will take to my grave will be that I was not around you on ur last day? I know u must have wanted me to be there but maa poor you, even u didn't know that we don't have time. 
And you never wanted to bother me also I know that but you should have maa.. u should have bothered me. I would have flown to you and would had never let you go..
Read it somewhere in your books only " Time is the best healer". It's not true maa.. not true at all. There has been not a single day that I didn't miss you. The scars of your loss are as fresh as they were 10 years ago. N will not change till my last breath. 
Maa just promise me that u will come as my mom in my every birth Bec now I will have to wait for my next birth to see you fast. God knows when the time will come when I will be able to hug u n cry aloud. ?
Just take care of yourself wherever u are till I see you. Then I will take care of you. 
Miss u every second maa... love u ❤

This is not Sonu's first letter to his mother. In an old interview, Sonu had revealed how he still has a box which contains some of the letters that his mother wrote to him. "Some are as old as 16 years. She would write to me to keep me motivated and focused. These letters became extremely meaningful when I moved to Mumbai because I was all by myself - no friends or family. So, she would regularly write to me, and despite the fact that she was in Punjab, she became my strength through these letters. They kept me going through some not-so-nice and tiring times," shared the actor.

We wish, Sonu's mother blessings always stays with him.
