Last week, Ashish shared an emotional note on his Instagram remembering Raj Kaushal and wrote, "My big brother, my guiding light, my happy quotient, my pamper-me-lots person, is gone. My brother who supported me fiercely like my sister Monica who I also lost, is gone. But yet, he’s filled positivity and gratitude real hard in me. He’s taught me well. To survive any storm. And I’ll do the same today. For him. I love you forever, my Rajiee. Until then my bro. Until we meet again. [sic]" In the picture: Ashish Chowdhry's wife Samita Bangargi accompanied him to Raj Kaushal's prayer meet.

Raj Kaushal's last rites were attended by his friends from the industry including Huma Qureshi, Apurva Agnihotri, Samir Soni and Ashish Chaudhary among others on Wednesday. In picture: Vidya Malavade, who is good friends with Mandira Bedi, was also snapped at the prayer meet ceremony hosted at their residence.

For the uninitiated, Mandira Bedi and Raj Kaushal adopted Tara during the first wave of a pandemic outbreak. The duo was excited to share the news when their younger daughter accepted them as a family. In picture: Mandira Bedi's mother also attended the prayer meet.

Mouni Roy, who is often seen with Mandira Bedi, has been frequently visiting Mandira Bedi to lend support to her friend in these testing times.
