Kajol and Tanishaa Celebrate Mom Tanuja’s 81st Birthday with Heartfelt Tribute

The sisters honor their mother with a touching Instagram post, calling her “evergreen, crazy, and beautiful,” while sharing a glimpse of family love and cherished memories.

Veteran actress Tanuja celebrated her 81st birthday on September 23, and her daughters, Kajol and Tanishaa Mukerji, marked the occasion with warm, affectionate messages. The sisters shared a joint post on Instagram featuring a lovely birthday photo of their “evergreen, crazy, beautiful” mother, celebrating her youthfulness and spirit. According to them, despite officially turning 81, Tanuja will always be 18 in their eyes.

The birthday celebration included a stunning cake decorated with a black-and-white image of Tanuja from her early acting days, accompanied by the caption “gorgeous as ever.” The sisters also posted a recent photograph of the three of them, dressed in traditional Indian attire, radiating familial love and joy.

In their heartfelt message, Kajol and Tanishaa wrote, “If birthdays were flowers, we would have flooded the table… happy happy 81st aka 18 to our evergreen, crazy, beautiful Goddess! Love you to the moon and back momma.” They added the hashtags #HappyBirthdayMom and #EighteenForever, along with pink heart emojis.

The post received an outpouring of love from fans, with one commenting, “More beautiful every day,” and another wishing, “Happy birthday to your beautiful mother.”

The birthday festivities followed a special Instagram post Kajol shared the previous day for Daughter’s Day. She posted throwback photos, including one of her daughter, Nysa Devgan, with her grandmother Tanuja, and another of herself and Tanishaa with their mother. In the caption, Kajol wrote, “Happy Daughter’s Day to all these gorgeous girls… and of course, my diva. We don’t need a day to celebrate being daughters, but it sure feels good… and all we need is a chance to eat cake anyways.”

This week has been all about celebrating love, legacy, and the unbreakable bond between generations in their family.
