Anu and Daboo Malik’s mother passed away on July 25. She was 86. Daboo Malik’s sons-Armaan and Amaal penned down emotional posts for their late grandmother. Armaan Malik who was close to his grandmom wrote a heart-wrenching post for his “dadijaan”. He shared an old video of himself with her where they were posing for pictures, the second picture was of Armaan with his father and grandmom and he then posted a video of his dadi when she was in the hospital and Armaan was by her side. “Lost my best friend today my dadijaan. The light of my life. I still cannot process this loss. A void I know nobody can fill. You were the cutest, the most precious human being ever. I am so grateful that I got so much time with you and got all your love, hugs and kisses. Allah my angel is now with you,” he wrote.
While singer-composer Amaal Mallik also wrote a lengthy post in remembrance of his grandmom. He also posted a few throwback pictures and wrote that it was the “most difficult task” of his life to “bury” her with his own hands. He further wrote, “I cried hopelessly for a last hug, but you had already gone ?You wanted to be buried right next to your husband and I’m glad we could make that happen….As I left, it began to rain and I looked up to the skies & smiled knowing that you are right where you wanted to be, united with Dada in another dimension, just like this picture. There was never any one before , nor will there be any one after.”
Recalling his fond memories with her, Amaal wrote, “Sundays with Dadi was the real deal with Aloo Parathas for breakfast and Pizza Parties for dinner….You lived to love your children & grandchildren, you fought long and hard.Respect & Love.You will live within us till the end. The OG Malik has left us ???”.
