Talking to Harper Bazaar about the same, Dia Mirza said, "All of his belongings went to my step-brother who was born after he left. Some years ago, my step-brother came to Bombay to visit my mum and me, and I was showing him around the house. He walked into the corridor where I have lots of photographs, and there is one of me as a baby with my parents. At that moment, all the years of pain and baggage I was carrying, about wanting my father's things, disappeared... I realised what I had was even more precious, which is my memories of him."
