He wrote, “Thank you so very much, @tarak9999 Mama with love Smaran and Stharaka. What started as a casual comment actually turned into the sweetest surprise. Today, the cookies reached home. The kids are happy, I am on cloud nine with the autograph, and we are all just smiling at how wholesome this is. Sometimes the internet is not just noise. Sometimes it becomes a tiny bridge between people, fandom, kindness, and memories (sic).”
