Bollywood actor Ranvir Shorey took to Instagram on October 9th to mark the 22nd anniversary of his mother Rajeshwari Shorey’s passing. In a heartfelt post, he wrote, “Today, October 9th, marks 22 years since my mother, Rajeshwari Shorey, passed away. I was asleep when she left us that fateful morning 22 years ago… I cry this night every year since then. Miss you, mama. Om Shanti. 🙏🏽??”

Ranvir has previously spoken about this period during his stint on Bigg Boss OTT 3, describing it as the most traumatic phase of his life. He revealed that at the time of his mother’s death in 2002, he was shooting for the film Lakshya in Ladakh. “In 2002, I was shooting for Lakshya in Ladakh, I got a call from home informing me that my mother was not well. But I couldn’t leave the set, as the shoot was still in progress. Fortunately, when I returned to Bombay she was okay and discharged from the hospital. A few days later, she passed away at home. It remains the biggest trauma of my life,” he said.

On the personal front, Ranvir was previously married to actress Konkona Sen Sharma. The couple shares a son, Haroon. Following their divorce, both have maintained an amicable relationship, focusing on co-parenting their child.

Professionally, Ranvir was recently seen in the drama series Bindiya Ke Bahubali. The show, set in a fictional madhouse city called Bindiya, mixes humour, absurdity, and family rivalries at its core. It explores the lives of family gangsters navigating a chaotic world. Alongside Ranvir, the series features Tannishtha Chatterjee, Govind Namdev, Saurabh Shukla, Seema Biswas, and Sushant Singh in pivotal roles. The show is currently streaming on MX Player.
