“Deeply, deeply saddened and shocked to know about the demise of one of my dearest and closest friends, #PritishNandy! An amazing poet, writer, filmmaker, and a brave and unique editor/journalist! He was my support system and a great source of strength in my initial days in Mumbai. We shared many things in common. He was also one of the most fearless people I had ever come across. Always larger than life. I learned so many things from him. Of late, we didn’t meet much, but there was a time when we were inseparable! I will never forget when he surprised me by putting me on the cover of Filmfare and, more importantly, #TheIllustratedWeekly. He was the true definition of yaaron ka yaar! I will miss you and our times together, my friend. Rest well. #HeartBroken,” read the actor’s post.
