Ayan Mukherji's dad right?

Ayan Mukherji's dad is Deb Mukherjee, Joy Mukherjee's brother. I don't think Joy Mukherjee's children became part of Bollywood. Kajol, Rani, Ayan, Tanisha are Joy Mukherjee's nieces and nephews..

Joy Mukkherjee was my dads favorite hero. Today morning when my Dad came across the news of his death, he was really sad. Joy Mukkherjee was very famous during 1960s & 70s.

RIP
