I'm everything because of you & I cannot tell you how much I love you," she wrote. She added, "Wish I had the common sense & maturity to appreciate you years earlier - from the start but it's never too late to say that I have the best Mom in the galaxy. Love you to the moon & back Here's wishing you loads of happiness, health & wealth today & always Muaah @neeluzinta #happybirthdaymom #ting."

Meanwhile, on the film front, Preity recently celebrated the 20th anniversary of Kal Ho Naa Ho. Kal Ho Naa Ho was the saddest happy film I did. Nothing can replace those memories & I will forever be grateful to Yash Uncle for making this incredible film. It was the last time he was on set. There will never be anyone like you Yash Uncle [?] You took a piece of my heart with you when you left. This film will forever remind me of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will forever love you," she wrote on Instagram a few days ago while recalling working in the film.
