Alia Bhatt handpicked the best set of photos to wish her mother and veteran actress Soni Razdan on her birthday, on Wednesday. The first photo that Alia posted, happens to be an adorable throwback from her childhood days. The second one is a relatively recent shot of the mother-daughter duo. Alia wrote in the caption, "On your birthday I look back at one of my birthdays.. I spent the whole party sitting on your lap cause I was too scared of the inflated Godzilla which I drove you up the wall to get me... But nonetheless I look perfectly content and happy and clearly there's no place I'd rather be... Happy birthday mothership .. we'd be nothing without you...Grateful for you every single minute every single day. Love you."
In the comments section, Soni Razdan replied, "Thank you my sweetheart light of my life and centre of my soul... My lap is yours always and so is my love." Natasha Poonawalla commented, "Happy Birthday! Loads of love." Karisma Kapoor wrote, "Happy birthday Soni aunty" Zoya Akhtar's comment read, "Happy Birthday Soni."
