Last meal I had with Pradeep dada, he knew I love Bengali food, this was during Noti Binodini prep meet, that’s his hand in the first frame…
Such a terrible news, we were to meet as soon I got to Mumbai…
My heart is sinking and I won’t be able to cope with this shocking news. pic.twitter.com/qkWUvl0QiX— Kangana Ranaut (@KanganaTeam) March 24, 2023
