Actress Gauri Malla does not consider the relationship after giving birth to be the sign of motherhood. In the second session of 'Nirbhik Nari' organized by Kantipur Publications Limited on Thursday, actress Malla opined that the feelings experienced by a person can be seen as motherhood.

'Motherhood to me is what you experience . The experience of having a child and becoming a mother and father is not motherhood for me. If a dog has a baby in my house, I see motherhood in that mother dog too . If the cat has a baby, I see motherhood there,' she said .

Actress Malla shares her experience of motherhood even though she has not physically given birth to children. 'I have not physically given birth to any children . But, I can look at every child with my mother's eyes . It means that it is only a drama, isn't it! Love can be done to anyone,' she said, 'if my feelings towards a child change, or if my attitude towards a child changes, or if my attitude to look at him is mixed with affection, will I not be a mother? Isn't motherhood in me?'

Gauri tells that she is experiencing her motherly feelings towards her mother in the present situation. According to him, now his mother has become Gauri's child and Gauri has become his mother . 'Yesterday I was his child, today he is my child,' said actress Malla, 'I am giving my motherhood to my 87/87-year-old mother . I scold him when he cries, I scold him when he is bullied . He would have slapped me the way he would have if it had been the child I gave birth to, but not only expressing everything else, which he did when I was a child .'

Gauri says that we should get out of the wrong idea that a woman is not a woman until she gives birth. "We should get out of the notion that no one is a woman until she has a child." You have to get out of this thinking, this thinking is wrong . Women who have children are also women, women who do not have children,' she said.

Gauri says that even in the matter of giving birth, there is a misconception in Nepal. "What matters is whether a woman wants to be a mother voluntarily or not." Not to have a child for others, but for your own happiness . We should also know whether we are socially, mentally and financially able to give birth to a child," she said, "We don't have that. Ours is the beginning from the curse. They say that in a big family, we raise you not only. Let's say, it is not the daughter-in-law who is entering the machine. That kind of thinking is still present in well-to-do, well-educated families.'
