Raima Sen recently paid a touching tribute to her late father, Bharat Dev Varma, by sharing cherished photos on Instagram. Bharat, the husband of actress Moon Moon Sen and father of actresses Raima and Riya Sen, passed away on November 19, 2024, at his home in Kolkata.
His health had deteriorated rapidly, and despite the family calling for an ambulance from a nearby hospital in Dhakuria, he tragically passed away before it arrived.
In her emotional post, Raima shared never-before-seen photos of her father along with a heartfelt message. “Daddy, can’t write anything yet. Words fall short of what a great father and husband you have been. Till then, dad, may you be happy wherever you are and live king size like you always did. Will miss you always and love you,” the message read. The photos included one from his younger years and another of him holding a young Raima in his arms, highlighting their special bond.
Bharat Dev Varma was born into the former royal family of Tripura. His mother, Ila Devi, was a princess from Cooch Behar, and his grandmother, Indira, was the only daughter of Searji Rao Gaikwad III, the Maharaja of Vadodara. Bharat’s legacy and his deep connection with his family continue to resonate, and his passing marks a significant loss for his loved ones.
