Lost a friend and a genuinely lovely person today. I’m so sorry to hear of your passing #niteshpandey
We spoke a few days ago and you said “Let’s meet Ashwin…Nahin toh zindagi bhar phone par baat karenge”

Got a chance to work with #NiteshPandey first years back on Kuch Toh Log Kahenge and recently again on Gyaarah Gyaarah. Effortless actor and an affable person. Truly shocked by his passing. Been thinking about the time I spent with him on shoot. Will miss him.
