About mom Archana’s struggle with the rare health condition, he said in the vlog, “I am proud of my mom. She has had the hardest year, guys. She broke her hand, and she developed a rare condition called CRPS (Complex Regional Pain Syndrome), which means her hand is never going to be the same again. She has shot for 2-3 movies and a web series. One month she shot during all 30 days, and she didn’t complain. She has shown me the resilience that it takes to be amazing. At 60-something years old, she has started a YouTube channel and all these cool new things, and that’s just incredible.”
Ayushmaan also praised his brother Aaryamann Sethi for kickstarting his own YouTube channel and getting engaged to actress Yogita Bihani.
