Anurag took to his Instagram handle and penned down an emotional note. He said, “Peechle kuch dino mein itne saare logon ke call, texts aur video calls aaye, jinse mere kabhi khoon ka rishta nahi tha. Unhone mujhe daant lagayi ki tune khud ko anaath kaise bol diya (In the last few days, many people called, texted and video called me with whom I don’t even share blood relations. They scolded me for calling myself an orphan).”
He further added, “They were like hum khade hain tere har cheez ke liye, behne khadi hain, bhai khade hain, mumma papa kisi ke call kar rahe hain. Never thought kabhi aisa din bhi aayega, bahut kuch khoya but bahut kuch mil bhi raha hai. Pyaar maa baap ka waise nahi mila par jo dusron ke maa baap se mil raha hai (They were like, we are here for you, for everything, your sisters are here, your brothers are here, someone’s mum and dad are calling.
I never thought a day like this would come. I’ve lost a lot, but I’m also gaining so much. I may not have received that kind of love from my own parents, but the love I’m getting from others’ parents), I can’t tell you this feeling. Thank you so much.”
Anurag also shared a video of an elderly man and woman telling him they are his parents and assuring him that he is not alone. Reacting to that, he said, “Nahi jaanta main kisi ko, na kabhi mila, lekin phir bhi sab pariwaar ki tarah mere saath hain. Bata nahi sakta kaisa feel ho raha hai. Shukriya jo log bhi help kar rahe hain merko iss depression and situation se bahar nikalne ke liye. Aap logon ki har ek text call merko mentally help kar rahi hai. Waqt lagega lekin ho jayega. Ye zindagi tum logon ke naam (I don’t really know anyone, nor have I met them, yet everyone is standing by me like family. I can’t describe how it feels. Thank you to everyone who is helping me come out of this depression and situation. Every text and call from you is helping me mentally. It will take time, but I’ll get through it. This life now belongs to all of you).”
On the work front, Anurag is a popular YouTuber and had also participated in Bigg Boss 17.
