Ranveer Singh’s maternal grandfather Dr. Ram Hingorani passed away on Diwali. He was 96 years old. Although Ranveer Singh has not yet shared any post on social media, the actress’ cousin Soumya Hingorani has shared pictures and videos of Mr. Hingorani on her social media, confirming his death. Giving an emotional tribute, Ranveer Singh’s cousin wrote that Dr. Ram Hingorani lived life to the fullest.
“96 years young. A wonderful life to celebrate, not mourn.
“My grandfather, Dr. Ram, left us in peace to go to my grandmother’s house on Diwali. He couldn’t have chosen a more auspicious time – the golden time of the day, during Lakshmi Puja. I bet they are both sitting in their chairs sipping on a crisp whiskey, enjoying and watching us together.
“Thank you for being the best Dadu in the world. Thank you for giving us everything. Save me a scoop of ice cream. Until we dance again,” Saumya wrote in her post.
