SpotboyE.com, brings to you the exclusive videos from the
crematorium.
Kavi’s brother, Ravi Azaad, lit the pyre.
The show's entire team is in a state of shock over Kavi's
sudden death,
which occurred after a massive cardiac arrest yesterday morning.
We had spoken to the younger lot from the show who loved him in
particular, because he spent maximum time with them on the
sets. We had also spoken to Dilip Joshi (Jethalal) and Mandar
Chandwadkar (Bhide) and they had heart-breaking reactions.
Dilip had said, "It is very, very shocking for me. I
got a call from the set about this. I am shaken up. I still can’t believe that
he is no more with us."
Mandar had told us, "It’s such a shocking news. This morning we all
were supposed to shoot for a sequence together at Filmcity. But
then we came to know he is unwell so we decided to let him rest and go ahead
with the scene without him. I will only say he completed all his work before
leaving us. This was a fresh scene which we were supposed to shoot (crying). He
didn’t leave anything incomplete. He was such a happy go lucky man. I still
can’t believe that he is not with us. We used to sit together, eat together. As
soon as he used to come, even before greeting us with a good morning, he
used to ask, 'Tiffin mein kya laya hai?' He was a foodie in real life also. He
is irreplaceable. Sahi maayane mein Azad ho gaya. I am sorry, I have to keep
the phone, I can’t talk any more."
Kavi had been unwell since the past three days but none
of his colleagues expected the worst. Kavi was rushed to Wockhardt Hospital at
Mira Road when he complained of uneasiness but was declared dead on arrival.
May his soul rest in peace.
SpotboyE.com offers deepest condolences to Kavi's family.
