"Attending Vanshikha's school function as a parent... was the biggest joy of my life. - Anupam Kher"

Mumbai, March 9

In a thoughtful gesture, actor Anupam Kher carried out his "parent" duties for late friend Satish Kaushik's daughter Vanshika as he attended her school function to watch her performance.

In a warm Instagram post, Kher noted that he was present to witness Vanshika's performance in the school play, recalling how he, along with late Satish Kaushik, used to do street plays in Delhi.

"TOTAL JOY: Attending Vanshikha's school function as a parent and seeing her perform in a school #NukkadPlay was the biggest joy of my life. Years back Satish and I used to do #StreetPlays in Delhi! She is talented, hardworking and good actress! I must congratulate the @jbcn_oshiwara school for organising the event so effectively and efficiently! Looking forward to attending #Vanshikha's all future events! Jai Ho!" he wrote.

Kher also shared pictures from the event, including a video of himself with Vanshika. He could be seen praising Vanshika's efforts, lauding her performance.

Besides watching the school play, the actor also joined the team and clicked pictures with staff members, crew, and all the other participants.

After Satish's sudden demise due to a cardiac arrest on March 9 (2023) in New Delhi, Kher had promised to spend a lot of time with his daughter. He is often seen posting videos and pictures with her.

Kher was the first one to break the news of his demise on social media.

Satish Kaushik was a versatile actor, writer, director and producer, who made his mark in the Indian film industry with his captivating performances and unique sense of humour. He gained recognition in the 1980s and 1990s for his work in popular films such as 'Mr India', 'Saajan Chale Sasural', and 'Judaai'.

On the professional front, Kher will next be seen in 'Khosla Ka Ghosla 2,' the sequel to the beloved 2006 film directed by Dibakar Banerjee. The original film remains a fan favourite for its relatable storytelling and memorable performances.

The 'Tanvi The Great' star also has other projects lined up, including the upcoming film 'Fauzi,' starring Prabhas.

Respect for Anupam Kher. He's keeping his promise. In India, we value these bonds so much. A child losing a parent is the biggest tragedy, but having a 'mama' or 'chacha' like him step up is beautiful. More power to him.

As someone from outside India, I find this story incredibly touching. It speaks to universal values of loyalty and care. The connection from their street plays in Delhi to now supporting the next generation is poetic.

Satish Kaushik was a legend. Mr. India is an all-time classic. Good to see his memory being honored in such a personal way. His daughter is lucky to have this guidance. Bollywood needs more stories like this off-screen.

While the gesture is beautiful, I do hope the media and public give Vanshika and the family their space. Constant spotlight on a grieving child can be a lot. Let her heal and grow normally.

Full circle moment! From doing nukkad natak together to watching the next gen perform in one. Life comes around. Makes you emotional yaar. Satish sir would be so proud of both his daughter and his friend.
