As Co-Founder of Pan African Film Festival (PAFF) which is presently ongoing, DuBois and Gupta were scheduled to walk the red carpet at the PAFF opening. 

"We had so many plans. It was her dream to walk the red carpet with me, especially at PAFF, which is a huge piece of her enduring legacy”, says Gupta, who is also one of the PAFF festival’s featured panelists. Due to Ja’net’s health, she was unable to fulfill that dream. But I promise to continue the legacy in all its grandeur that she has left behind ", said Raj Gupta to us. 

DuBois and Gupta were scheduled to visit South Africa to join One Cat Foundation, where Raj Gupta is a founding member, in order to complete the filming of his documentary, King Of The Pride. The Soundtrack for “King of the Pride” will include a tribute song featuring Ja'Net DuBois, Producer Raj Gupta and Kris Klassic (her great-grandson).
