But I shall try.. It`s said, the only thing that`s guaranteed upon birth is death.. We all know it, accept it, believe it, but when one loses someone who is an essential aspect of one`s existence alot of questions arise. On the 15th of October 2025, I lost my Dad, my Guru, my best friend..Shri Pankaj Dheer..he wasn`t well for sometime..it shattered us as a family..”(sic)
