They say a mother is a daughter’s bestfriend. They couldn’t be any more right. From everything that you’ve done for me, the lessons that you’ve taught have been the biggest gift for me from you. I wish you only good health & happiness!"

Dr Shriram Nene once penned a wholesome post about his mother-in-law.

“My 90 yo mother in law paints. She has macular degeneration & can’t see too well.But what comes out of her mind is remarkable.She is the loveliest, most positive person in the world. We had her paintings placed on mugs to remind us of her talent,” he wrote.

Madhuri's mother had collaborated with her to record a song for 'Gulab Gang' back in 2013. Anubhav Sinha, a filmmaker, recounted the event to IANS, saying,“When we approached Madhuri to sing a song in the film, she happily agreed to do so. When she came for the recording, she came with her mom and we discovered her mom is a very good singer. So we asked her mom if she could sing a song. Eventually, we got both Madhuri and her mom to sing a song in the film.”

Meanwhile, in the Worli area of Mumbai, Snehlata Dixit's final rituals will take place between 3-4 pm at Vaikunth Dham.
