Zara Noor Abbas shared a heartfelt birthday message for her mother, veteran actress Asma Abbas, on Instagram. She began by admitting, “What do I say, Amma? You know I’m nothing without you. I’m completely lost without you.” Zara continued, expressing how she struggles with things like wearing a sari or being organized, tasks that her mother always took care of for her. “But now, Ma, I have to learn to do life on my own.”
Accompanying the post with two candid photos of her mother, Zara reflected on the challenges she faces and the need to grow up. “I have to be your Mama instead of your baby, which I hate doing. But I must, because you’ve done so much for me, and now it’s my turn to step up!”
Zara concluded the post with a touching message: “You’re the closest thing I have to heaven. Thank you for always being there. I love you so much. A very happy birthday, Amma dear. Please be with me forever?”
Followers were moved by Zara’s emotional words, with one comment reading, “I’m so emotional after reading that caption, and I know Zara must’ve cried too! That question mark after ‘Please be with me forever’ is so deep!” Others shared their birthday wishes for Asma, with one user saying, “Happiest birthday to you, Asma Aapa! May she live long. Happy birthday, [Asma Abbas]. Love you so much.”
Asma responded warmly to her daughter’s post, promising, “As long as I’m alive, your mother will always be with you. My strength, my daughter. I love you.”
