On her 47th wedding anniversary, veteran actress Lillete Dubey shared a heartfelt tribute to her late husband, Ravi Dubey, who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer in 2015. The emotional post on Instagram has touched fans, reminding everyone of their enduring love story that began back in 1978.
Lillete posted a nostalgic black-and-white photo from their wedding day, capturing the joy of that special moment. In her caption, she wrote, "12 Sept 1978 .. A lifetime ago .. Happy Anniversary Ravi darling .. love you & miss you … (here’s one of your favourite songs that you tried so valiantly to sing… You were a man of so many brilliant talents but singing wasn’t one of them! But that never stopped you!)." It’s a sweet, personal glimpse into their life together, showing Ravi’s fun-loving spirit even in his not-so-great singing attempts.
The couple, married for over three decades, shared two talented daughters: Neha Dubey and Ira Dubey. Both have carved their paths in the entertainment world, taking on roles in theatre, films, and TV shows. Lillete, now 72, comes from a close-knit family as the eldest of three siblings. Her sister Lushin is married to renowned academic Pradeep Dubey, and she has a brother named Patanjali.
Fans are also buzzing about Lillete’s latest project, the film Songs of Paradise, directed by Danish Renzu. This inspiring story dives into the world of Kashmiri artists and their dreams. It follows a young Kashmiri woman, played by Saba Azad, who aspires to become a singer, drawing inspiration from the legendary Raj Begum—the Melody Queen of Kashmir. Raj Begum, a Padma Shri awardee and Sangeet Natak Akademi recipient, left an indelible mark on Kashmiri music.
The movie stars a stellar cast including Soni Razdan, Zain Khan Durrani, Taaruk Raina, Lillete Dubey, Sheeba Chaddha, Shishir Sharma, and Lalit Parimoo. Set against the stunning backdrop of Kashmir, Songs of Paradise explores the region’s rich music, culture, and history, while highlighting the struggles and triumphs of its artists. It’s a must-watch for anyone interested in Bollywood films on Kashmiri culture and inspiring true stories.
