U can write a custom action for this
"Execute the program from installed files" and select the exe to be executed and give the command line arguments if any
the condition for this custom action should be "If Installed"
u should place the custom action in execute deferred before the Standard action that removes the installed files

Use a condition of REMOVE~="ALL" for the custom action that will execute the BOB.EXE file.

This will also run on repair...
Use Kim's suggestion of REMOVE~="ALL" so that it only runs on uninstall.

vijay you didnt read the question properly that will not work.
yours will run it during and it doesnt really only run on uninstall either.
