The actress posted a throwback video of her grandfather from his 92nd birthday and penned a heartfelt note calling him her hero. Alia wrote, “My grandpa. My hero. Played golf till 93. Worked till 93. Made the best omelette. Told the best stories. Played the violin. Played with his great granddaughter. Loved his cricket. Loved his sketching. Loved his family & till the very last moment.. loved his life! My heart is full of sorrow but also full of joy .. because all my grandpa did is give us joy & for that feel blessed and grateful to have been brought up by all the light he had to give! Until we meet again.” In the clip, the actress’ grandfather was seen cutting his birthday cake, surrounded by his family. Ranbir Kapoor helped put candles on the cake.
