Happy Parents Day

Currently ZEE Bangla is airing a very entertaining and educative reality show-'Happy Parents Day' hosted by the renowned film and theatre personality Debshankar Haldar. Whenever time permits I watch it because it recognises parents for their unconditional love and sacrifice. This is a programme where children recall their parents' great sacrifices for their happiness and success and try to fulfill some of the many wishes of their parents by taking part in a quiz. 

Recently celebrated singer Kumar Sanu came to the show with his parents from old home (as his own parents are no more on this earth). He shared with the audience his memories and hardship they had to pass through due to poverty. The famous singer fulfilled many dreams of his parents and others. But he still felt sad to reckon that he could not save his parents from untimely death due to maltreatment by some reputed hospitals. I look forward to watching this programme for a long time to come.
