Rakhi's mother was suffering from cancer for nearly three years. She was 73. Just a few days back, Rakhi visited Khwaja Gharib Nawaz Dargah Sharif to pray for her mother's health. Rakhi always shared videos and photos of her mother on social media. In fact, a couple of days ago she uploaded a video on Instagram asking her fans and friends to pray for her mother's deteriorating health.
