In an interview with the Mumbai Mirror, popular television actor, Gaurav Chopraa was asked about the way he's dealing with the supreme loss of his parents in a span of 10 days. On which, the emotional actor revealed that his mother was a big fighter and was fighting against cancer from the past three-and-a-half years, but it was COVID-19 that had defeated her. He said, "My mother was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer three-and-a-half years ago. The doctors gave her just four-six months, but the brave lady, who'd been a school principal, defied all the odds and was singing, dancing, travelling and celebrating every festival. Cancer couldn't beat her, the coronavirus did. For the first time, I saw her undying spirit dented."
On August 20, 2020, Gaurav Chopraa had taken to his Instagram handle and had informed everyone that his mother had passed away. The doting son had posted three beautiful pictures of his late mother and had penned down his entire thoughts in the caption. The long note could be read as "My mommy strongest !! The first picture is from a year ago. Three years of cancer-fighting of the worst kind, three years of non-stop chemo: and she was bucking us up! Always the brightest spot of energy in the room. Always. The beauty that did not need any kind of accentuation. It stood out .loved by all, to the point of seeming like her fans."
