The actress, who is currently expecting her second set of twins, outlined her father's contribution towards the country and acknowledged the full military honours he got during the ceremonial send off. Celina took to her Facebook account on Tuesday and posted: "Nothing truly prepares you for the loss of your parent, not even prolonged illness of your loved one. You only realise once they are gone that you will never see them or hear their voice again or feel the warmth of their hugs. We always take for granted the fact that they are well & alive where ever they are and go about our lives."
