Every moment spent with her is a memory he holds close. As Mother's Day 2025 approaches, the actor gets candid in an exclusive chat with Mid-Day, reflecting on the powerful bond he shares with his mom.
Though Karan Veer is currently riding high on the success of Bigg Boss 18 and the latest season of Khatron Ke Khiladi, the road has not been smooth for him. Karan has had his share of personal and professional struggles. Speaking about how his mother supported him through two divorces, he shared, "My mom always says, 'it's part of life, and life will happen - let it happen. Work for the future, but be in the present'."

How this Mumbai mom learnt swimming for her autistic daughter
Imagine being in Karan's place and finding out much later that your mother had fallen seriously ill, and no one told you. Naturally, Karan was furious. Karan was inside the Bigg Boss 18 house when his mother fell ill. However, his family decided to keep the news from him, fearing it might impact his focus inside the house. When he eventually learned the truth, he admitted to feeling "very, very angry and scared at the same time - angry because no one informed me, and scared for obvious reasons."
Further in the chat, Karan also reflected on how his personality on Bigg Boss was deeply shaped by his mother's influence. "Everything you saw was her, respectful yet fired up, forgiving yet reminding people of their mistakes, fun yet responsible, and eager to win while being patient," he shared.
While concluding the chat, we asked him what message he would like to dedicate to his mom this Mother's Day. Karan answered simply yet sweetly, "Mom, I love you," and added, "I need to say it more often."
