The pics from Krishna’s prayer meet have gone viral on social media. The Sarkaru Vaari Paata actor paid a floral tribute to his father and also thanked everyone for their support. Mahesh’s wife Namrata Shirodkar, Mahesh elder brother Ramesh Babu’s family members were also present.

Have a look at the pics from the prayer meet.

Mahesh was inconsolable during the antim darshan of his father. Actors like Chiranjeevi, Jr NTR, Allu Arjun, Naga Chaitanya, and Prabhas among others paid last respects to the actor at his residence in Nanakramguda, Hyderabad. This year, he lost his elder brother Ramesh Babu in January, in September his mother Indira Devi passed away and then now his father. So, this has left him heartbroken.

Post Krishna’s death, the Ghattamaneni’s family released a joint statement. It was issued by Mahesh Babu and Namrata’s children, Gautham and Sitara as well as the actor’s sisters Manjula, Padmavathi, and Priyadarshini Ghattamaneni.
