Jagdeep passed away last year on July 8 in Mumbai, due to health-related issues. Meezaan Jaffrey took to Instagram and captioned the video post, stating, ”It's been a year since dada has passed. It feels weird to think about it sometimes. From the motivation to the constant positivity, from the unlimited stories to the unbelievable wisdom, there was much to learn from you and much to share. I guess ill remember you through all the good times we had but the world will always remember you through your work and the legacy you left behind. This is from one of my few favourite scenes that he did and i just thought ill share it with you guys. Crazy how you feel and value the presence of someone once they’re not there. I guess that’s one of life’s many mysteries😔 To the man who dedicated his life only to his ma and cinema🙌🏻❤️ #jagdeep”. Naved, son of late Jagdeep Jaffrey had also posted on his Instagram, a video of Jagdeep talking about life and memories.
