On Saturday, Kajol mourned the loss of her uncle, Deb Mukherjee, and penned an emotional note on her social media handle, calling him one of the ‘finest men.’
Sharing a photo with Deb, Kajol wrote, “Tradition said that every Durga Puja we would click pictures together. When we were all dressed up and looking good. I’m still adjusting to the thought of a world without him. To one of the finest men that I’ve ever known. Rest in peace. You will be loved, remembered and missed every day of my life.”
