Reema Lagoo’s Last On-Screen Son’s Moving Note To Her Proves How She Was A Gem Of A Person

Reema-Lagoo

Reema Lagoo’s demise saddened not only Bollywood but also the Telly world. If after Nirupa Roy anyone could be known as the quintessential on-screen mother, then it was Reemaji.

While celebrity and fan reactions are pouring in, Reemaji’s last on-screen son Ashish from Naamkarann (Viraf Phiroz Patel) penned a really heartfelt Facebook note for his on-screen mom. In it you can see, not only the bond they shared but how khatta-meetha their bond was.

Dear Reemaji,
Strangely, late last night while you may have been grappling with your last breath I was awake going through the stills of #naamkarann and guess what I stumbled upon? This photograph I had pulled aside, to send it to you. But now I wake up to news of you moving on to another form; another world and my hands have a strange tremble as I type this.

This picture for me is our most special picture, amongst many others as it somewhat captures the quiet offscreen bond we had. The love and authority you would scold me with, encourage me with, guide me with, be mad at me will always remain special. 

Your smile, your tenacity, your sense of humour, your love for life, your enthusiasm for acting even after doing it for over 4 decades shone through as much as you.

Am so glad we made up the last time we fought and I got to say sorry and you said lets make a new beginning Viraf, am so glad I got a chance to work all those hours with you and learn from you, all that I did.

Am just very sorry for not sending you this pic earlier but am sure eventually you will see this note and picture, in your own way just the way you managed to do so most things that didn’t meet your gorgeous eyes. till then …
#withlove
your last (onscreen) son

 

An array of celebrities are taking to social media to post about Reemaji and she’s a gem we all would surely miss.
