Vardhaan revealed that one of the most timeless lessons his mother taught him was to treat every human being with equal dignity, respect, and kindness, regardless of their social or financial standing. “Character is how you treat someone regardless of what they can do for you in return,” he shared, adding that he consciously tries to practice every day.

The actor also opened up about how seriously he takes his mother’s guidance. In an emotional revelation, he shared that he has maintained a diary since 2008 where he writes down all the important advice she gives him. “If I can become even 1% of the human being she is, I’ll be grateful,” he said.

Recalling a defining moment from the start of his acting journey, Vardhaan remembered asking his mother if he was truly ready to step into films. Her response stayed with him forever: “One never feels ready. One has to jump into the ocean and learn to swim.”

On Mother’s Day, Vardhaan also shared that he intends to celebrate the occasion with an intimate family dinner, live music, and a cozy movie night at home with salted caramel popcorn.
