He shared the personal memories on his Instagram sharing his grief on the sad demise of the veteran actor.
Mahesh Tilekar, who created a platform for ‘Marathi Taraka’, female actors of Marathi industry to perform and take the art to international level, also grieves on this loss. He certainly lost an inspiring role model in ‘Dr. Lagoo’.

आठवणी आधीच चकवून गेल्या होत्या.. त्यांना शोधत तुम्हीही गेलात डाॅक्टर.. तुम्हाला क्षितीजापर्यंत समुद्र दिसला होता ना.. तुम्ही तन्वीरची हाक मला मारली होती ना.. पिल्लू.. आत्मकथा मिटली..!
