In an interview with Zoom, Arjun Kapoor had spoken about the 'forever' void created by the demise of his mother, Mona Shourie Kapoor and how he and his sister, Anshula Kapoor had not touched her room for six years after her death. Arjun had said, "Something that I can share now....we had not touched her room for six years. But then the point is, it's not a normal thing to do, have one room completely locked up forever when you don't have place in the house right? But it's just that for me and Anshula, this house is her...So everyday I go out make people happy, make myself happy, work, act in movie, celebrate being a star and there's love and selfies, mazza aa raha hai, shooting kar rahe ho, your living the dream job. And then when you come back home, and I can't tell her what I did. So it just feels like incomplete. Whatever I do in my life, that void will stay forever. So you can't deal with it...you just deal with it as it happens. You have to be spontaneous and accept it, smile about it, bittersweet, think about her in a positive way and then move ahead."
Arjun Kapoor and his sister, Anshula Kapoor often reminisce the beautiful moments spent with their late mother, Mona Shourie Kapoor on their respective social media handles. In an interview with the Mumbai Mirror, Arjun had spoken about the same and how Anshula is just like their mother. He was quoted as saying, "That's the way we relive memories of our mother (Mona Kapoor). She used to save pictures from all our birthday parties and other important moments. By the time she passed away, she had a drawer full of albums dating back to the 1970s. Anshula is a replica of her and takes care of these things now. We live in the same house and take each other for granted, not saying in person how much we love each other, but we use the social media for it."
