He also tagged a photo of the meeting, taken with a portrait of
Bal Thackeray
, his uncle and Uddhav's father, in the backdrop.
Uddhav also expressed happiness over meeting his cousin.
At his joint rally with Raj in Mumbai on July 5, Uddhav Thackeray had said he and the MNS chief have "come together to stay together".
At the "victory" rally, held to celebrate the rollback of the Hindi language GRs (resolutions) by the BJP-led government, the cousins shared a political stage for the first time in almost two decades, on the issue of Marathi identity and "imposition" of the Hindi language.
In July 2012, Raj Thackeray drove Uddhav to Matoshree from Mumbai's Lilavati Hospital, where the latter underwent an angiography.
In January 2019, Raj went to Matoshree and handed over to Uddhav the wedding invitation of his son Amit, who got married later that month.
Raj quit the Shiv Sena in December 2005, claiming that he "sought respect from Matoshree but received humiliation". He formed the MNS the next year.
