For mothers, with love

10 receive 'Maa er Ichchha Puron' awards

Staff Correspondent
Syeda Oyshe Sirajee will always cherish May 8 in 2016 as the most sublimely beautiful day in her life. On that special day she successfully fulfilled a longstanding wish of her mother.
The wish was simple - feeding orphans.
Though simple, Oyshe, a student, found it quite difficult to find an orphanage where all the orphans could be fed with the modest amount, Tk 10,000, that she had saved up.
After visiting several orphanages in Dhaka city, Oyshe finally found a smaller one in Mohammadpur area, having 50 students.
Completing all the arrangements by herself, she took her mother at the orphanage on that day.
There, the mother was accorded a pleasant surprise with all the orphans gathering at the gate holding a placard reading: "tomakey onek bhalobashi maa [love you a lot, mother]".
Seeing tears of joy rolling down her mother’s cheeks, Oyshe's heart was filled with a blissful satisfaction.
"I never saw my mother so happy," Oyshe said in a writeup that had won her a mega prize ofTk 50,000 in a Mother's Day special campaign titled "Maa er Ichchha Puron", initiated jointly by The Daily Star and CBL Munchee Milkas.
Under the campaign, 252 people shared photos with their mothers and stories about how they would like to fulfill wishes of their mothers or have already done it.
Two participants - Oyshe and Raisa Tasnuva - were adjudged mega winners with cash prize of Tk 50,000 each while eight others were also given different prizes.
Mahftiz Anam, editor and publisher of The Daily Star, and Shri Somanaathan Sridharan, country manager of Ceylon Biscuits Bangladesh Pvt Limited, handed over the prizes to the winners yesterday at a programme at The Daily Star Centre.
The second mega prize winner Raisa Tasnuva in her writeup said her mother loves to visit historical places, heritage sites and places with natural beauty.
During the Eid vacation in 2015, Tasnuva made her mother’s wish come true by taking her on a tour to picturesque places in Bhutan.
Her mother was overwhelmed to experience the tranquil beauty - especially the wildflowers, magnificent pine trees and flowing rivers filled with boulders along the road in Paro, Djong, Thimphu and Punakha.
The eight other winners are Sabrina Chowdhury, Rafin Alvi, Sopnil Mottafi Billah, Md Naimul Karim Khan, Bayzid Jahan, Fahim Abid Jami, Alamin Islam Mahi and Israt Diba.
