Earlier this week, Shekhar provided an update about her mother, saying that she is 'fighting a grim battle'. He tweeted, "My mother is extremely critical.My heart is sinking. She is fighting a grim battle. Praying to Lord Shiva to give her the strength to pull out of this crisis. Need ur prayers."



Shekhar's son Adhyayan Suman had shared an emotional post on Instagram to ask his followers to pray for his grandmother's well-being. He had revealed that her situation was critical.


"Not many must know this but every Wednesday I go to the temple and ask Ganpati Ji for all his blessings and health, success, love. God has been kind all these years but today I want everyone to come along and join hands and pray with me for my dadi maa. She’s been a kidney transplant patient, I know she’s brave; she’s fierce and she’s a survivor… but it’s been a tough week for us since my dadimaa has been seriously ill and admitted to a hospital, her situation has been very grim and critical. My family and close friends have been around looking out for us and I’m very grateful. Let’s all pray for good health today and everyday for everyone around us who’ve been suffering. Sending everyone around the healing energies they need and lots of courage to fight whatever battles they’re fighting," Adhyayan wrote. 



On the professional front, Shekhar was last seen in 'Bhoomi'. 


We offer our deepest condolence to Shekhar and his family.
