Rajeev posted a message on Twitter just two hours ago saying, "My mom passed away day before yesterday after a year n a half long fight with cancer. We fought together, we hoped together but we couldn’t come out of it together. I and my family are fine and have come to terms wth it. She now lives within me."
In the next posted tweet right after, he writes - "‘Gratitide’ from the bottom of my heart to all those who touched our lives during this fight and gave us their love and support unconditionally. I shall remain indebted to them forever."
This sad news got the fans and celebrity friends pour their hearts out mourning Rajeev's biggest loss and 'Yeh Hai Mohabbatein' actor Karan Patel's wife Ankita Bhargave was one of them.
Ankita wrote to Rajeev - "May Aunty rest in peace! Shez always gonna be within u,Around u and For u always!! Godbless u!"
When we visited his timeline, sighting a tweet right below the above two, on Mother's day, got us teary eyed.
Three days before she left the world, son Rajeev had written a message wishing her on Mother's Day that read - "Mother is reassurance, mother is strength...mother is emotions, mother is your vent. kya shabd hai Maa..Bolne mei hi sukoon hai.[in hindi] Happy Mother’s Day"
Rajeev also now has his Twitter DP changed to his Mom's photo in her memory.
We send our condolences to Rajeev and hope he finds the strength to fight the pain.
