Actor Akshay Kumar, who lost his mother Aruna Bhatia a day before his birthday on Thursday, remembered her and thanked everyone for their condolences and wishes.

The ‘Bellbottom’ actor shared the news of his mother’s demise on Twitter on Wednesday. Bhatia breathed her last at the Hiranandani Hospital in Mumbai.

In an emotional post, Kumar, who turned 54 on Thursday, said his mother would be wishing ‘Happy Birthday’ to him from up there.

“Would have never liked it this way but am sure mom is singing Happy Birthday to me from right up there! Thanks to each one of you for your condolences and wishes alike. Life goes on,” Kumar said in a tweet, sharing a throwback photo with his mother.

On Monday, the actor returned to Mumbai from London to be with his ailing mother. PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
