The composition beautifully epitomizes the mother as a goddess who embodies the supreme power and is always there for her children. Even an old man, feels like a child when he is in his mother’s lap. Honouring the eternal love between a child and the mother, the song captures the indispensable role that mothers’ play in everyone’s life. Her contribution is invaluable, and her absence creates a deep void that is impossible to fill. The pandemic has shaken the world and has redefined our lives. The modern society has recognized the relevance of ‘sharing’ and ‘caring’ more than ever!
