Remembering late actor, Akshay Kumar tweeted, "I was shocked to hear the news of Asrani's death. Just a week ago, we hugged each other tightly during the shooting of 'Haiwan'. He was a very loving person. His comic timing was impeccable. From 'Hera Pheri' to 'Bhagam Bhaag', 'De Dana Dan', 'Welcome', and now 'Bhoot Bangla', 'Haiwan', I was able to work with him in all my films and learned a lot. Our industry has suffered a great loss today. You gave us millions of reasons to smile. May God's blessings always be upon you. Om Shanti."

Akshay Kumar has shared a nice photo with Asrani from a movie scene. In this, Asrani has a sweet smile on her face as usual. Today, everyone is expressing their condolences after her death. Actor Anupam Kher shared the video and said that his heart is heavy today. Apart from this, other celebrities have also paid tribute to Asrani.

Asrani's full name was Govardhan Asrani. He was from Punjab. He studied acting from FTII in Pune and later started his career. His role and dialogues in 'Sholay' made him famous. He also worked with superstar Rajesh Khanna in 25 movies. Rajesh Khanna considered Asrani his 'lucky mascot'.
