“How beautifully everyone sang this song together. Can imagine being here on my own, how hard it can be to survive abroad. Especially those who are students here. I just wanna thank my mother for supporting me in this journey. Please do call your mum everyday just to ask how she is and it’s Mother’s Day on 19th March in the UK. Happy Mother’s Day everyone and thanks for coming yesterday. Bless you,” read the caption written alongside the video shared on Instagram.
