Sharing further, he said, "My mother said something to me, which I remember now. She used to say, ‘Sanjay mere saath baith, mere saath time guzaar. Because when I am gone, you will feel very bad. Now, I feel that had I listened to her and spent a few hours with her during the day, I would not have this feeling."
