In October, Naagin actor Pearl V Puri lost his father. The star father succumbed to a heart attack leaving his family grieving and mourning over the untimely demise. It was earlier reported that he developed pneumonia as well as suffered a silent heart attack. However later, Brahmarakshas 2 actor had flown down to his hometown to perform the Chautha of his father. During his latest interview with Times Of India, Pearl V Puri now opened up on staying and living for his mother.
Speaking to Times Of India, Pearl V Puri said, “It has been very difficult. Being an actor, it is very difficult to control our emotions and portray something else. There are many times when we actors are crying from within but we can't show it to the outside world. We are entertainers and our job is to keep people happy. We have to forget our pain, sorrow and entertain others. All these sometimes take a toll on you mentally, it is traumatic or starts affecting you adversely. It is a task to cope up.”
He went on to add that the loss he has gone through is irreplaceable. He added, “I can't say when I will be able to overcome this pain. I don't think this place can be filled and there will be a void always now. I take inspiration from my fans who have seen tough times more than me and have gone through immense pain. There are many who have lost their parents but they are still fighting their battles. I feel God has given me this medium to spread positivity and smile with my work."
Pearl V Puri further revealed that he’s not living for his mother as he wants to keep her happy. He then added, “I had to be strong for my mother. I have got my mom for good. I have got her here and she is staying with me now. It is a very difficult phase of life and I don't want anyone to go through it. But I know this is how life is, that we lose dear ones at some point. Nobody can take the person's place and the loss is irreplaceable. I am trying my best to keep my mom happy and divert her mind towards good things. I am actually living for her. I just want to work and keep her happy. After a point, parents start living for their kids, they stop seeing dreams. They don't aspire to own big houses, clothes or cars. Their only dream is that their kids are happy and successful. So, now I am living her dreams.” (ALSO READ: Naagin Actor Pearl V Puri Gets A Makeover; We Wonder If It’s His New Look For Ekta Kapoor’s Brahmarakshas 2?)
