His loved ones are waiting for the arrival of his two children before completing his funeral. And, it is known that already his son Saptak has returned to the country.
At this moment Andrew Kishor’s body is awaiting funeral at Rajshahi Medical.
Saptak, the son of Andrew Kishor, returned home from Australia on a flight yesterday morning. Momin Biswas, a disciple of the artist, has confirmed the matter.
He said, “Today (Thursday) at seven in the morning he arrived. Now we are just waiting for Songa. Andrew Kishor’s last rites will be on July 15.”
It is known that the siblings have been living in Australia but the distance between the two is a lot. The universities of the two are in two cities. One lives in Sydney and the other lives in Melbourne.
