Gully
Boy
rapper
Dharmesh
Parmar,
popularly
known
by
his
stage
name
MC
Tod
Fod,
died
at
the
age
of
24
on
March
20.
As
soon
as
the
news
about
his
demise
broke
out,
actors
Ranveer
Singh
and
Siddhant
Chaturvedi
took
to
their
respective
social
media
handles
to
mourn
his
demise.
Dharmesh's
mother
in
her
recent
interview
with
a
leading
news
portal,
opened
up
on
her
son's
death.
While
the
cause
of
his
passing
away
is
still
unknown,
she
revealed
that
he
had
suffered
two
heart
attacks
in
the
last
four
months.
Dharmesh's
mother
told
Dainik
Bhaskar,
"Dharmesh
had
had
two
heart
attacks
before
this.
He
had
gone
with
his
friends
for
a
Ladakh
trip
where
he
got
his
first
heart
attack
four
months
ago.
We
got
to
know
about
it
when
he
had
his
second
heart
attack
at
home
a
few
months
ago.
He
underwent
a
heart
surgery
as
well
but
he
never
used
to
rest.
He
was
crazy
for
rap
and
loved
music
more
than
his
own
life.
My
child
is
now
gone,
and
I
could
not
do
anything
to
save
him."
She
also
talked
about
how
her
son
was
excited
for
his
Holi
special
performance
in
Nashik.
She
was
quoted
as
saying
by
the
tabloid,
"Perhaps
he
knew
he
was
not
going
to
return
home.
He
celebrated
the
festival
of
Raksha
Bandhan
just
a
day
before
Holi
(when
he
left
for
Nasik).
He
has
two
younger
sisters.
I
do
not
know
what
came
on
his
mind,
but
he
celebrated
Rakhi,
not
just
with
his
sisters,
but
also
his
aunt's
daughters."
Besides
Ranveer
and
Siddhant,
Gully
Boy
director
Zoya
Akhtar
had
also
taken
to
her
Instagram
page
to
pen
a
tribute
for
Dharmesh
with
a
post
that
read,
"You
have
gone
way
too
soon.
I
can
only
be
grateful
our
paths
crossed.
Rest
in
peace
Bantai.
