Last year, Ajay Devgn and Saurabh Shukla united for Raj Kumar Gupta's thriller, Raid. It also starred Ileana D'Cruz and went on to become a big commercial success. However, if there was no character that nearly stole the entire film, it was of Amma Ji, played by a superb Pushpa Joshi. Fans and critics felt she was the biggest strength of the film.
Unfortunately, she's no more with us and has passed away at the age of 86. The loss is truly irreparable. Raj Kumar, taking to his Twitter account, shared a throwback picture with the actress and couldn't stop remembering her for the fantastic human and actress she was. Given she made her debut at the age of 85 speaks volumes.
