Swaragini
actress
Nupur
Alankar
had
been
facing
tough
time
after
the
Punjab
and
Maharashtra
Co-Operative
(PMC)
Bank
collapsed
in
October
2019
and
her
accounts
were
frozen.
She
couldn't
provide
treatment
for
her
mother
and
that's
when
CINTAA,
celebrities
like
Renuka
Shahane,
Akshay
Kumar
and
others
offered
her
financial
help.
She
had
started
crowd
funding,
through
which
help
started
pouring
in.
But
just
when
her
mother
started
showing
signs
of
recovery,
she
suffered
a
major
setback.
Nupur's
mother
passed
away
on
December
3,
2020
and
the
actress
revealed
that
she
performed
her
mother's
final
rites
alone,
which
was
her
dying
wish.
Ever
since
then,
for
three
months,
she
observed
silence.
Nupur
was
quoted
by
TOI
as
saying,
"There
was
a
time
when
I
didn't
even
have
Rs
500
to
buy
her
medicine.
That's
when
I
shared
her
details
on
a
crowd
funding
platform
and
got
immediate
help.
My
fraternity
came
to
my
rescue
during
this
crisis.
I
was
homebound
since
December
2019.
There
was
no
way
I
could
have
resumed
work
as
I
had
to
be
by
her
side
throughout."
She
further
added,
"My
mother
breathed
her
last
lying
in
my
lap.
Uss
dauraan
maine
mehsoos
kiya
ki
helplessness
kise
kehte
hain
(During
that
time
I
realised
what
helplessness
is).
I
performed
her
final
rites
alone,
which
was
her
dying
wish.
I
observed
silence
for
three
months
as
I
needed
time
to
heal.
I
wanted
to
deal
with
the
crisis
before
I
was
ready
to
face
the
world
again
and
this
time
without
my
pillar
of
strength
and
support.
Secondly,
a
lot
of
my
relatives
turned
us
away
when
we
were
in
need
of
financial
help.
I
have
moved
on...
and
am
ready
to
face
the
harsh
truth
that
the
most
important
chapter
of
my
life
is
over.
My
mother
taught
me
how
to
fight
adversities,
recover
from
them
and
be
ready
to
face
the
next
challenge."
Nupur
wants
to
get
back
to
work,
which
is
acting
as
she
loves
it.
She
also
stated
that
another
reason
to
get
back
to
work
is
that
she
wants
to
return
all
the
money
that
she
has
borrowed
for
her
mother's
medical
aid.
She
concluded
by
saying
that
till
then,
she
won't
be
at
peace.
