Terming him a "mischievous" child, Shukla recalled how his mother's mere presence prompted him to always tell the truth and owe up to his mistakes.

Admiration

Despite losing her husband, she weathered through the storm

"When my dad passed away 15 years ago, it felt like the umbrella over us had been taken away. But my mom, being the strong woman that she is, was our rock," added the Bigg Boss 13 winner. Expressing his admiration for her, Shukla said "despite our poor finances," she ran the household, took care of her three children, and "always fulfilled our demands!"

Note

Rita Shukla sent him to modeling contest to tame him

Interestingly, it was Rita Shukla, his mother, who sent him to a "modeling contest" to "teach me a lesson." And the rest is history! During his stint inside the Bigg Boss house, he couldn't talk to her for three months and "being away from her was the toughest part." "Even today, mom remains my anchor," he wrapped up. We wish her all the strength!
