Bhubaneswar: Veteran Odia actress and mother of Ollywood star Babushaan, Aparajita Mohanty broke her silence around 24 hours after the fiasco involving her son, daughter-in-law, and actor Prakruti Mishra here on Saturday.
Speaking to media persons, Mohanty said that Babushaan is a very adorable and affectionate boy who is loved by everyone. “My son loves his parents, his wife, child and all in the family a lot. That is the character of my talented son.”
“He is very close to me, discusses his projects, seeks suggestions for improvement and shares the dream of taking Odia film industry to greater heights.”
It was during COVID when Babushaan’s attitude towards his work and family changed, she said. “I did not know what happened to him, or anything about the friend circle he was into. He did not stay at home, he avoided family, which was very surprising.”
Mohanty continued: “I have come across certain statements endorsing and defining true friendship. I ask you all, who is a true friend? In my opinion, he or she is one who always shows the right path and ensures that the friend is healthy, mentally, physically and financially.”
Asked about the drama which took place in Bhubaneswar on Saturday, involving Prakruti Mishra, Babushaan and his wife, Mohanty preferred to maintain an honourable silence.
She however appealed to her fans, society and the media to help the Mohanty family bring Babushaan back home.
