I sat on the floor and just cried: Vivek Oberoi recalls asking his mother why me when life seemed unfair. Her answer touched his soul

Vivek Oberoi recalled a deeply emotional moment when he turned to his mother during one of the darkest periods of his life. Sitting with his head in her lap, he asked, Why me, Ma? Instead of offering sympathy, she reminded him to consider whether he had asked the same question while winning awards and receiving applause. Her response helped him see beyond his struggles and rebuild his strength.
