Shell-shocked and shattered

“We are shocked and saddened by the tragic news. I don’t think we will ever come to terms with this tragedy ...Our hearts go out to the families and we stand with them. Both, Arijit and Gagan were good actors and extremely sincere towards their craft. May their souls R.I.P.”, says Siddharth Kumar Tewary, producer of Mahakali.

Gagan Kang was the most devoted person: Debina

Actress Debina Bonnerjee has paid homage to actor Gagan Kang. “Human life is so unpredictable. Now you are a moving joyous entity and the next moment you are no more. Cannot imagine this unpredictable wrath of life will fall on a friend. You are imbibed in my memory bold and clear,” Debina wrote on Twitter on Sunday.

“With your toothy grin, still smiling mischievously following your own rules. Your rules made your own arguments which in turn made you stand out. I remember our endless advice and discussion sessions. The boy with a heart of gold. The most devoted person, a staunch Shiv bhakt. Also someone who made his own Ganesha idol and did puja. “May be... here also you set your own rules and went ahead. By why? Is it real? Has it happened? Is life so flimsy? Can we ever know that you would be gone after so and so days? Endless questions. Life unfolds its lessons one at a time. Surprises with happy and heart-wrenching ways,” she added. —IANS
