I have used Mother’s Day as an excuse to get the local members of Chintala clan for a get together.   Otherwise, it’s not easy to align calendars of young and adult members in the family, on a regular weekend. We all met at Jiva vegetarian restaurant in town. This video captures just 2 minute of our 3-hour event.   My folks didn’t realize that I was shooting video, and not taking snaps.

I have also asked each member of the family to give ab ode to their Mom and what they mean to them. Their response was endearing, emotional, and hilarious. I have also had folks who are away from the home in US and other parts of the India send their tribute via WhatsApp.  All of it is compiled in a 8-minute footage and tribute can be accessed via below link.   You would love it, and relate it if you know Telugu.
