Filmmaker Ayan Mukerji attended the prayer meeting for his late father, Deb Mukherjee, who passed away on March 14 at the age of 83. Now, the Mukherjee family hosted a prayer meet in memory of Deb Mukherjee in Mumbai on Tuesday.
Before the ceremony began, Ayan spoke to the paparazzi stationed outside the venue. He requested their cooperation, as they seemed dissatisfied with their spot for capturing pictures. Since the placement limited their view of arriving celebrities, Ayan urged them to be kind and understanding.
Celebrities like Anupam Kher, Siddharth Roy Kapur, and Ranbir Kapoor are seen arriving at the venue for the prayer meet.
Meanwhile, Ranbir Kapoor along with his wife Alia Bhatt had cut short their mini vacation in Alibaug, planned ahead of Alia’s birthday, following the sudden demise of the veteran filmmaker.
The last rites of veteran actor Deb Mukherjee were performed on March 14, attended by his family members and several Bollywood stars, including Hrithik Roshan, Anil Kapoor, Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Ranbir Kapoor, and Alia Bhatt.
Deb Mukherjee was a well-known face in Bollywood, featuring in films like ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’, ‘Aansoo Ban Gaye Phool’, ‘Do Aankhen’, ‘Baaton Baaton Mein’, among others. Beyond his cinematic contributions, he played a significant role in preserving cultural traditions, actively organizing the North Bombay Durga Puja, one of Mumbai’s most cherished festive events.
Meanwhile, Ayan Mukerji is currently busy directing ‘War 2’, starring Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR. Once the shoot wraps up, he is expected to begin pre-production for ‘Brahmastra 2’. On Thursday, Ranbir Kapoor confirmed this, also sharing a major update on the much-awaited sequel.
