A converted Buddhist, Tez performed the last rites as per Hindu custom. "Thank you very much for your love and support. I have no words to describe what I am witnessing here. It is an expression of love for my father's work and how it affected people at the emotional level. This is a very special occasion. My father is not there but his works and words will live forever among the people who should read and understand him more," he said.
