She added, "I have no words. The whole world knows about it. It's so shocking. I still can't believe it. I still feel it must be fake news. And sometimes it's fake news. I woke up with this. And I called on his phone only. Thinking he'll pick up."

The actress concluded, "Nobody knows the reason behind his sudden death. We just heard that he was in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). I can't tell because I don't know how far it's true. So no point in spreading rumors, you know. The worst thing is he's no more. And it's the biggest loss for the industry. Because he's an amazing actor, an amazing human being. Because of my busy schedule and his things, we couldn't meet. But we knew that he's here-with this "let's meet" thing. But I had no clue that he's not well. It's just not right."
