Today marks the first death anniversary of popular television actor Sidharth Shukla, who passed away on September 2 last year at the age of 40. In remembrance of the actor, his family got together for a prayer meeting with the Brahma Kumaris – of whom Sidharth was an ardent follower. Sidharth’s mother Rita Shukla, his sisters, and a few extended family members were seen distributing bhog and prasad at the prayer meeting, a day before the actor’s death anniversary. Several posts having pictures of the actor’s family with Brahma Kumaris are also being circulated on social media. Sidharth was regularly seen interacting with the Brahma Kumaris, who call themselves a ‘worldwide spiritual movement dedicated to personal transformation and world renewal,’ according to their official website.
Previously, on the occasion of Janmashtami, Rita had attended yet another Brahma Kumari event with several members of the organization. Sidharth’s family seems to honour his memory by respecting his association with the Brahma Kumaris. Following his demise, Shehnaaz Gill also joined the organization.
