In this type of questions, first, you need to find the word anywhere in the sentence ( is/as/was) and then at the palace of is/as/ was you put one equal symbol(=).

Then fix the equal symbol as reference , in right hand side apply the backward approach and un left hand side apply the forward approach.

Ex: He = the son of the only son of my mother.

Now go to the word my ( here talker is Suresh) I,e. Suresh says my mothers only son.it means Suresh is the son of a mother.

Now the obtained one is Suresh then go to next term of the son here final obtained word is a son so equate this;

He= son, here Suresh is the talker, so Suresh is the father of a son (he).

The only son of Suresh's mother means Suresh himself.

Son towards which Suresh points means his own son. Therefore Suresh is father of the one he is pointing towards in photograph.

As per the question, Suresh is the speaker. He says the only son of my mother. He clearly mentioned that it's his mother and the word only son means one son. So there are no chances of two or more sons. Suresh is the only son of his mother. The boy is the son of the only son of Suresh's mother.

Son of Suresh's mother is Suresh. Son of Suresh is the boy. Now, Suresh is the father of the boy.
