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 lots of things in common. He was also one of the most fearless people I had come across. Always Larger than life. I learnt so many things from him. Off-late we didn’t meet often. 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 यारों का यार! I will miss you and our times together my friend. Rest well. #HeartBroken" ‘All We Imagine As Light’: Anupam Kher Hails Divya Prabha and Kani Kusruti Film as ‘Masterpiece’ (Watch Video).
