COVID positive Vishal Dadlani’s father passes away: ‘Can’t even hold my mother in her most difficult time’

On Saturday, Playback singer Vishal Dadlani took to his Instagram and shared unfortunate news of his father Shri Moti Dadlani passing away. Vishal penned a heartfelt note saying that he lost his best friend, the nicest and kindest man on earth, last night. Vishal mentioned that his father was in the ICU for the last 3-4 days due to a gall bladder surgery that went bad. Now, he can’t even meet his family as he was tested positive on Friday. However, with him being in this condition, Vishal states he can’t even hold his mother who is going through a difficult time. 

Sharing a picture of his father, Vishal Dadlani wrote, “Shri Moti Dadlani (12 May 1943 -8 Jan 2022). Lost my best friend, the nicest and kindest man on earth, last night. I couldn’t have asked for a better Father, or a better person to be my teacher for life. Anything good in me is just a pale reflection of him. He was in ICU for the last 3/4 days (due to a gall bladder surgery that went bad) but I couldn’t go from yesterday on because I tested positive for Covid. I can’t even go hold my Mother in her most difficult time. It’s really not fair. Thankfully, my sister is handling everything with far more strength than I would be able to muster up. I dont know how to live in a world without him. I’m completely lost.”

May his soul rest in peace.

On Friday, Vishal announced that he was tested positive with mild symptoms. He wrote, “This is for anyone who may have come in contact with me this last week or 10 days.  Sadly, despite every precaution, I’ve tested Covid Positive.  At no point, except during weekly shoots (where all testing protocols were followed to the best of my knowledge), have I met anyone without a mask on. Nor have I touched anything unsanitised, as far as I know.  My symptoms are relatively mild, but still quite debilitating. Please be careful.”
