Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar's birthday turns sour after he lost his mother a day before on Wednesday.

Aruna Bhatia was in her 80s and passed away due to age-related ailments. She breathed her last at the Hiranandani Hospital.

The 'Bellbottom' star, who turned 54 on Thursday, took to social media to express the pain of losing his mother.


In an emotional post, he further said that he was confident his mother would be "singing Happy Birthday" to him from up there. "Thanks to each one of you for your condolences and wishes alike. Life goes on," he wrote.
