“On 14 June this year, we tragically lost a bright, young and extremely actor Sushant who touched our hearts. He was a conservationist and now his memory will have a ‘home’ in Melbourne”, Mr Sharma proudly added.
This year’s Diwali was going to be 15th Fed Square Diwali by the untiring team and although they have had to re-calibrate their plans and program to celebrate the milestone, providing a permanent place to the loving memory of Sushant Singh Rajput in Melbourne’s historic Werribee Park, housing the famous Werribee Mansion built in 1877, equals a whole lot of milestones achieved on the way.
