It’s Mother’s Day and the moms of celebs are just like ordinary moms in that they also want to be spoiled on their special day.
Actor Irshaad Ally says his mum Daraweesa Ally, 77, was a stern English teacher who ignited his passion for language.
“My mom doesn't like pictures; weirdly I am the same, we don't like to stand out.
“My mother is one of nine children and was the only one to reach matric.
“She grew up in a sinkhuis, which still stands in Athlone today.
“She has this thing of ‘praat reg’, she also uses the ‘R’ loudly in every word, she talks like one with a Scottish accent.”
