Anupam Kher penned a heartwarming note for Mahesh Bhatt
Taking to Instagram, Anupam wrote, “Photo Summary! I clicked this photo in my office last week. But I did not intend to write a post about this. Last week #maheshbhatt sahib came to my office. Behind Bhat Saab was a small statue of me, made by a talented artist. I clicked the picture! And suddenly, the photograph becomes a metaphor. No matter where life takes me, no matter how many films I do, no matter the awards I get or the milestones I cross, a part of me will always remain the little man who stands silently behind #BhattSaab. Because some people just don’t give you a chance. They change the direction of your destiny. Mr. Bhatt gave me the gist. He gave me BV head. But over the years, I realized that role was just the beginning. The greatest gift was the opportunity to get to know him. Every meeting with him was an invitation to think deeper, to question more honestly and to look beyond the obvious.” “She has an amazing ability to shed pretense and face life!! Beautiful, painful, contradictory and yet deeply meaningful. The older I get, the more I realize that our true wealth lies not in what we accumulate, but in the people who expand our consciousness. Those who challenge us, provoke us, inspire us and unknowingly shape our inner world. Bhat Saab is such a presence in my life. Some relationships cannot be measured in years, movies or achievements. They become a part of your emotional and intellectual DNA. I felt gratitude after seeing this picture. Not for career. Not for success. But the learning journey continues every time I sit with him. Bhatt Saab, I remained a student. And I’m a richer man because you’re in my life. Thank you!”, he added.
