### Rajesh Kumar and Sumeet Raghavan Attend Satish Shah’s Funeral
In the video, Rajesh Kumar and Sumeet Raghavan can be seen consoling each other as they mourn the loss of their onscreen father, Satish Shah. For those not familiar, Satish, Rajesh, and Sumeet were all part of the legendary Indian sitcom *Sarabhai vs Sarabhai*.
Sumeet Raghavan played the role of Dr. Sahil Sarabhai, while Rajesh Kumar portrayed Rosesh Sarabhai. Both characters were the sons of Indravadhan Sarabhai, played by Satish Shah. The actors appeared visibly emotional, trying their best to keep it together during the funeral.
### Rajesh Kumar’s Tribute to Satish Shah
Rajesh Kumar took to Instagram to share a heartfelt post expressing his grief. He wrote,
“This is the worst hour for me. I still cannot process that Satish ji is no more. All I can say is that it feels like I have lost my father.”
### Sumeet Raghavan’s Emotional Goodbye
Sumeet Raghavan also shared an emotional video on Instagram where he reflected on his relationship with Satish Shah. He said,
“Today, he left us. As the show continues to grow, so does our bond. Whenever we met, we didn’t talk as Sumeet, Rupali, or Rajesh; then we are Sahil, Monisha, Rosesh, Dad, and Mom. That’s how we talk with each other. Today, the head of the Sarabhai family, our most senior member, has left us.”
He added, “Kaafi dino se woh joojh rahe the (He had been struggling for some days). Finally, life can be very cruel.”
Speaking about the show’s journey, Sumeet said,
“In 2004, we started a show and stopped it after 70 episodes because it didn’t work then. Today, 21 years later, that show has become the heartbeat of people’s hearts. The show is called *Sarabhai vs Sarabhai*. People have begun to identify with the characters of the show. They say, ‘I’m the Sahil of my house,’ ‘This is the Rosesh of our house,’ and ‘My wife behaves just like Monisha.’ But no one ever said, ‘This is the Indravadan of our home,’ because there was only one—Satish Kaka.”
Satish Shah’s passing is a huge loss to the entertainment world, but his unforgettable characters and contributions will continue to live on in the hearts of his fans and colleagues alike. May his soul rest in peace.
