In a poignant social media post, Pinkie Roshan, mother of Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan, remembered her dear friend and former family member, the late Zarine Khan. The emotional tribute highlighted the deep bond between the two families and Zarine's immense love for her children.
An Emotional Social Media Tribute
Pinkie Roshan took to her social media account to share a nostalgic picture and pen a heartfelt note. The photograph featured Pinkie alongside Zarine Khan, Zarine's husband Sanjay Khan, Pinkie's son Hrithik Roshan, and Zarine's daughter Sussanne Khan. The image served as a catalyst for a flood of warm memories.
In her caption, Pinkie directly addressed her departed friend, writing, "This picture popped up, Zarine. Thank you for loving Sunaina like your own daughter." She further expressed her admiration for Zarine's maternal nature, stating, "Zar, as always, I’ve known you for loving your children. I’m proud of each one of them too." She specifically mentioned Zarine's children—Zayed, Simone, Farah, and Sussanne—noting how they are creating unforgettable memories in their mother's honour, with a special mention for "Malla."
Remembering Zarine Khan: A Legacy of Love
Zarine Khan, the former mother-in-law of Hrithik Roshan, passed away on November 7 due to age-related complications. She was 81 years old at the time of her passing. Her death occurred 41 days before Pinkie Roshan's touching post, a period during which her children have been openly grieving and celebrating her life online.
Her daughters, Sussanne Khan and Farah Khan Ali, and son Zayed Khan have consistently shared photos and videos filled with beautiful memories on their social media handles. On December 17, marking 40 days since her passing, Sussanne posted a heartfelt video compilation of rare moments with her mother.
In an emotional caption, Sussanne referred to Zarine as her "Mummsy Angel" and wrote, "Everything stops when I think of your face… Today your soul is 40 days away from us… to our most spectacular mothership… I am blessed coz you chose me to be yours… I remain yours in every way, every day." She signed off as "your forever baby girl Suzi," accompanied by heart and fist emojis.
A Bond That Transcends Family Ties
The public exchange of love and remembrance underscores a significant aspect of Bollywood's personal networks—where relationships often endure beyond formal familial changes. Pinkie Roshan's note confirms that the bond between the Roshans and the Khan family remains strong, built on mutual respect and affection.
Sussanne Khan concluded her tribute on a hopeful, spiritual note, writing, "P.S. Let’s dance together in my dreams through life’s every struggle. I know I will overcome because of you." This sentiment reflects the enduring impact Zarine Khan has left on her loved ones, a legacy of strength and unconditional love that continues to inspire them.
