Somdev Mukherjee (65), father of actors Kajol and Tanisha, passed away following a massive cardiac arrest on Thursday morning. Better known as Shomu, the filmmaker was discharged from the hospital recently after a brief period of illness and was also writing a film script. His unexpected death has come as a shocker to the entire Mukherjee family and actress wife Tanuja, who was inconsolable. "Shomuda was a wonderful person. He was very ambitious and wanted to direct a film later this year. His script was almost ready and he was about to start casting for the same," says younger brother Subir Mukherjee.
