"My Amma, My Hero": Footballer Shares Heartfelt Note For Mother

Every child's fundamental need - unconditional love and care - resonates with the term "mother". A child's bond with their mother is eternal and begins way before birth. Honouring the same, Sandhiya Ranganathan, India's women's national football team striker, shared a heartfelt note on Twitter for her mother. In the note, she stated that her mother was "her hero".

In her tweet, Ms Ranganathan that her mother ensured that both her daughters had great lives despite being a single mother. "She is the reason behind who I am today. As a single mother of two daughters, life was not easy for her, but she ensured we lived our best lives. My strongest pillar of support. Very happy and proud that she finally got to watch me play for the country. My Amma, my hero," Ms Ranganathan concluded.

She also shared a photograph of herself wearing a football jersey alongside her mother, dressed in peach-coloured saree.
