Actor Ravi Mohan and his estranged wife, Aarti Ravi, took to social media to shower love and heartfelt words on their elder son, Aarav Ravi, as he celebrated his birthday. Despite personal differences and a separation that made headlines, the former couple presented a united front in expressing their pride and affection for their son, who seems to be maturing into a remarkable young man.

Ravi Mohan shared a warm post that included cherished photographs featuring himself with Aarav and younger son Ayaan. Captioning the post, Ravi wrote, “My pride. My all seasons. My eternal Kurumba’s (sic).” The phrase, both poetic and personal, reflected his deep love for his sons and their unchanging place in his life.

Meanwhile, Aarti Ravi’s tribute struck a deeply emotional chord, laced with her characteristic humor and immense maternal pride. “Somehow overnight you’ve grown taller than me. And now you won’t stop reminding me!” she began, playfully acknowledging her son’s sudden growth spurt. But beyond the surface, she delved into the emotional and mental growth Aarav has undergone over the past year—a year, she subtly hinted, that had not been easy for their family.

“It’s not just your height that’s changed — it’s your heart, your strength, your quiet resilience,” Aarti wrote, praising Aarav for his maturity and grace under pressure. She went on to reveal that the past year had brought unique challenges, but her son had navigated them with a strength and calm well beyond his years. “You’ve walked through it all with steady steps, silent strength, and a heart that still chooses to believe in the good,” she added.

Aarti’s message resonated with many and caught the attention of close friends and well-wishers from the film industry. Actress Trisha Krishnan responded with a heartfelt message, calling Aarav “my most special boy.” Actress and politician Khushboo Sundar echoed the sentiments, commenting, “Our little boy is a grown-up boy now. So proud of him. And you too, Aartu. He has grown up to be a very fine boy. May God bless him, always (sic).”

The emotional tributes by both Ravi Mohan and Aarti, as well as the affectionate comments from their friends, painted a moving portrait of parenthood, resilience, and unconditional love. Despite the changes in their personal relationship, the couple’s united admiration for Aarav stands as a testament to their shared commitment to their children.

As Aarav steps into another year of life, he carries not just the wishes of his parents, but also the strength and love instilled in him through times of adversity. And as his mother poignantly wrote, “No matter how tall you get, or how much you tease me about it, you’ll always be my little boy, and I’ll always be your biggest cheerleader.”
