Talking to Telly Talk India exclusively, Kunickaa said, “Woh ek legacy chhod ke jaa rahe hai aur history of Indian cinema mein unka naam humesha rahega. Handsome man, jolly man, shaayrana man, He-Man.”
(Translation: He leaves behind a legacy and he will always be remembered in the history of Indian cinema. A handsome, jolly and poetic man.)
She added, “Unhone do families ko kaise handle kiya – bohot khubsurati aur dignity ke saath. Unke bacchon ki upbringing Sunny aur Bobby mein dikhta hai. Unki wife ne bhi jis dignity se zindagi guzari aur responsibilities nibhaye. Audience ke saath aur generation change ke saath voh social media pe bhi bane rahe. I have full respect for that man.”
(Translation: He nurtured two families with dignity. His upbringing can be seen in Sunny and Bobby’s conduct. His dignified wife lived her life beautifully and fulfilled her responsibilities. He would change with his audience and generations and had a good social media presence. I have full respect for that man.)
Recalling memories of working with him, Kunickaa shared, “Maine do ya teen filmein ki hai aur unhone mere saath acche se baat ki. Meri mummy ko bhi acche se treat kiya jab woh aayi thi set pe. Woh bohot badi fan thi. I wish him a safe and peaceful journey onwards. Agar ho sakega toh main unke parivar walon se bhi milna chahungi.”
(Translation: I did two-three films with him and he was chivalrous with me. When my mother came with me to the set, he treated her respectfully. She was his fan. I wish him a safe and peaceful journey onwards. If I get a chance, I would like to meet his family.)
