Sanam Jung recently took to Instagram to share a candid and relatable moment from her life as a mother. In her story, she recorded a pot burnt completely black, filled with peas, carrots, and other vegetables. With her signature charm, she narrated the mishap, saying: "Qassam has told me not to multitask a million times because I'm not good at it," she began, referencing her husband's advice. "But I never listen to him."

Sanam explained how she was trying to juggle parenting duties: "Today, I was trying to put my child to sleep and cooking her food on the side. I was doing this to save time, so that by the time she wakes up, the food is ready."

However, things didn't quite go as planned. "And then I ran to the kitchen because I could smell something burning, and guess what? This is what happened," she said, zooming in on the burnt pot. With a laugh, she added, "And this cooking pot? I won't be able to clean it. I'll just have to toss it in the bin."

The story quickly resonated with her followers, many of whom flooded the comments with messages about their own struggles with motherhood and multitasking. From laughing emojis to solidarity-filled "same here" messages, it was a heartwarming reminder of the shared realities parents face.

Sanam, who has been open about her journey as a mother to her daughter, Alaya, continues to win hearts with her relatable content. In an interview on Shoaib Akhtar's talk show in 2023, she reflected on how her marriage has reshaped her outlook and daily routines. When questioned about choosing between acting and motherhood, Jung openly admitted, "Being a mother is entirely different and beautiful." She also highlighted how balancing a professional career with motherhood keeps her constantly thinking about her child, even when she's away from home.
