Akshay’s grief

Bollywood star Akshay Kumar turned 54 on September 9, a day after his mother died of age-related illness, and took to social media to share his grief on his birthday. Kumar posted a picture on Twitter where he’s seen with his late mum Aruna Bhatia, who passed away on September 8 days after she was admitted to the ICU at a hospital in Mumbai. “Would have never liked it this way but am sure mom is singing Happy Birthday to me from right up there!” Kumar tweeted. “Thanks to each one of you for your condolences and wishes alike. Life goes on.” Her last rites were performed hours after her death at the Pawan Hans crematorium.
