On his birth anniversary last year, she shared yet another beautiful picture. Her caption read, "Happy birthday dad, gonna miss wishing you 500 times today. And miss waking up and eating cake with you, hope you’re eating as much cake as you want to up there. And don’t worry we’re not gonna let mom feel sad today, we’ll annoy her so she’s angry. Hope you can hear us sing tonight dad, it’s all for you."

Following their father's footsteps, Taamara and Nakul are pursuing music. They're singers. On KK's birth anniversary in 2022, Taamara and Nakul organised a special concert to pay tribute to the legendary singer. They also teamed up with Shaan, Benny Dayal and Dhvani Bhanushali to recreate KK's popular song Yaaron in his memory.
KK suffered a heart attack due to an 80% blockage in the artery. He complained of pain in his arm before the concert. During the performance, he experienced discomfort and was rushed to a hospital. The venue where the performance was held was overcrowded. It reportedly accommodated more people than its capacity. The air conditioner wasn't functioning due to the crowd. The management was questioned. Singers across the country spoke about the poor conditions under which they are expected to perform.
