Hansal Mehta is one of the most dignified filmmakers working today in the Bollywood. The ace director suffered a grave loss on Wednesday as his father Deepak Subodh Mehta passed away. Obviously, Hansal has broken after the this incident. He informed his fans and followers about it through his social media outlets. He shared a throwback photo with his father and wrote a really heart touching note.

Apparently, Mr Deepak Subodh Mehta was so healthy that Hansal believed that his father will outlive him. He wrote on his post, "I always thought he would outlive me. I was wrong. See you on the other side Pappa. The most handsome man in the world. And the most gentle and generous human being that I’ve ever met. Thank you Pappa for your unconditional love. Thank you my legend, my hero."

The cause of death wasn't revealed in the post. Soon after the news broke out, Hansal Mehta's friends and colleagues expressed their condolences and urged him to stay strong. These included Pratik Gandhi, Farhan Akhtar, Manoj Baypayee and more.
