Recalling fond memories

Family time

Actress Shraddha Kapoor feels time spent with grandparents are like “treasures” in life. The ‘ABCD 2’ star lost her maternal grandfather Pandit Pandharinath Kolhapure recently. “Grand parents are the real treasures of our lives. And when they go... They make sure they leave behind a part of themselves, in you. I feel so blessed to have spent so many years, growing up, with them. The memories will always be the most special treasures... forever. And for all the lucky ones out there who still have their ‘nana-nanis’, ‘dada-dadis’, give them your time (sic),” Shraddha, 26 years, posted on Twitter.

The actress' grandfather, who died last weekend, was a well-known classical singer. “My beloved ‘nana’, Pandit Pandharinath Kolhapure, passed away very peacefully a few days ago. He spread magic through his music and greatness. Thank you all for your wishes and messages. Him and my ‘nani’ taught our family the meaning of being rooted and together,”  she added.

Shraddha Kapoor, daughter of actor Shakti Kapoor, began her acting career with a brief role in ‘Teen Patti’ and followed it up with her first leading role in the teen drama ‘Luv Ka The End’. Kapoor received nominations for her role in the romantic drama ‘Aashiqui 2’. She has received a positive review for both her role as a singer and an actress in ‘Ek Villain’.
