He posted a picture of the designer and wrote about what an exemplary human being Satya Paul was and also mentioned about his immense contribution to the Indian fashion industry.

The veteran fashion designer is known for giving the traditional saree a contemporary touch.
His son Puneet Nanda, in a lengthy message on Facebook, revealed that his father was slowly recovering after the stroke, in a hospital. Instead of staying in the hospital, Paul wanted to go back to the centre which had been his home since 2015.
Puneet Nanda said though there’s grief for his father’s loss, the family is also celebrating the wholesome life the acclaimed designer led. “He couldn’t have had a sweeter life or passage, at the feet of the Master. We are sad a bit, mostly rejoicing him, his life and now his passing with such a blessing,” Nanda wrote.
Nanda’s message read, “Satya Paul 2Feb 1942 – 6Jan 2021 – Thank you to all who have sent messges… a few notes about his passing (sic).” He added, “He had a stroke on Dec 2 and as he was slowly recovering in the hospital, his only wish was to get all the things he was being monitored and poked with – removed so he could fly away. We finally got clearance from doctors to take him back to Isha Yoga Center, his home since 2015. As per his wish, he gently passed on with blessings of the Master. (sic).”
The official Instagram account of Satya Paul also honoured the designer and shared various portraits of him. The text in the images read, “Celebrating the beautiful and inspiring journey of our founder Mr Satya Paul 1942-2021 (sic).”
