2021 has gotten its first unfortunate shock as Hardik Pandya and Krunal Pandya’s father, Himanshu Pandya, passed away this morning (16th January) after suffering a heart attack.
The news was broken out not too long after the cricketers’ father’s demise.
Celebrity photographer Viral Bhayani shared the news with an Instagram post captioned, “Heartfelt condolences to the Pandya family. Sad to learn that #hardikpandya #krunalpandya lost their father due to heart attack. Om Shanti.”
