Description
Karunanithi Jaya Akash had always celebrated Deepavali with his mother, Uma Karunanithi. So when he moved from India to Singapore for work, spending his first Deepavali without her last year was especially tough.
Determined to make this year different, he flew her to Singapore for an early celebration, fulfilling her dream of travelling overseas. Together, they decorated his home, cooked biryani and hosted his friends. He even surprised her with a saree.
Though Uma had to return to India before Deepavali, Akash says it's a celebration he'll never forget.
Catch their story on On The Red Dot.
