Veteran actor Mithun Chakraborty’s mother Santirani Chakraborty passed away on Friday. Mithun’s youngest son Namashi Chakraborty confirmed the news.
Namashi told Anand Bazaar Online, “Yes, the news is true. Grandma is no longer with us.”
Trinamool Congress spokesperson Kunal Ghosh mourned Santirani’s death. Taking to his Twitter handle, Ghosh wrote, “Heartfelt condolences to Mithun Chakraborty for the loss of his mother. May Mithunda and her family bear this deep grief.”
In April 2020, Mithun Chakraborty’s father Basantokumar Chakraborty passed away. Namashi had told PTI, “Yes, my grandfather passed away last evening due to kidney failure.”
In an earlier interview, Mithun had opened about his parents. He had said, “My parents never realised that I had finally became a Bollywood star. They never came to terms with the fact that their son is a popular film star, neither were they keen to find out. They were simple, orthodox people who led simple lives. My father was a supervisor at a government telephone exchange office, but he was a happy man with a happy family.”
Namashi Chakraborty recently made his Bollywood debut with Rajkumar Santoshi’s Bad Boy. Mithun Chakraborty will be seen next in Baap.
