Satish Shah’s demise has left the entire industry in a state of shock, and more than anyone else, it has been really tough for the cast of his cult show Sarabhai vs Sarabhai to deal with the loss of the actor. Today, the entire cast, including Rupali Ganguly, Ratna Pathak Shah, Sumeet Raghavan, and Rajesh Kumar, was seen at the funeral of the late actor. Now, videos of them breaking down are being circulated on social media.
In one of the heart-wrenching clips, Rupali Ganguly was seen crying inconsolably as she bid adieu to her on-screen father-in-law. The clip also features Rajesh Kumar walking out of the place where Satish Shah’s body was kept, as he couldn’t control his emotions and broke down in tears.

In an earlier clip, visibly shaken by the loss of her co-star, Rupali was seen hiding her tears as she gestured to the paparazzi to stop recording her, with her hands folded.
Actors who played his on-screen sons in the cult show Sarabhai vs Sarabhai were the first ones to arrive to pay their respects. Sahil Sarabhai, portrayed by Sumeet Raghavan, and Rajesh Kumar, who played his younger son Rosesh Sarabhai, arrived at the late actor’s Mumbai residence early on Sunday.
