In
his
lengthy
letter,
the
Prime
Minister
had
mentioned
that
the
manner
in
which
Akshay
had
taken
care
of
his
late
mother
is
inspiring
adding
that
she
left
the
world
knowing
fully
well
that
her
beloved
son
is
one
of
India's
most
admired
and
versatile
actors.
He
also
mentioned,
"Preserve
her
memories
and
legacy,
and
keep
making
her
proud.
In
this
tragic
hour,
my
thoughts
are
with
you
and
your
family."
Akshay
Kumar's
mother
Aruna
Bhatia
breathed
her
last
on
September
8.
She
was
unwell
for
quite
some
time
and
was
admitted
in
the
Intensive
Care
Unit
(ICU)
of
Hiranandani
Hospital
in
Mumbai.
Post
her
demise,
the
actor
had
penned
a
heartwrenching
note
that
read,
"She
was
my
core.
And
today
I
feel
an
unbearable
pain
at
the
very
core
of
my
existence.
My
maa
Smt
Aruna
Bhatia
peacefully
left
this
world
today
morning
and
got
reunited
with
my
dad
in
the
other
world.
I
respect
your
prayers
as
I
and
my
family
go
through
this
period.
Om
Shanti." Her
last
rites
were
performed
at
Pawan
Hans
crematorium
on
the
same
day
which
was
attended
by
some
of
Akshay's
colleagues
from
the
film
industry.
On
the
next
day
which
marked
Akshay's
57th
birthday,
the
Bachchan
Pandey
star
remembered
his
mother
in
an
emotional
post
and
wrote
that
she
must
be
singing
Happy
Birthday
to
him
from
right
up
there.
