"I loved her from the bottom of my heart. She is my family... People are saying she had a heart attack. But she did not have such a weak heart... Recently, she had spent Rs 25 lakhs on her father's operation, telling him that you are just 75 years old, enjoy your life. Now her father is shouldering his daughter's bier... Everything is in God's hands. Everyone born will go one day. But to go like this is shocking.... When I fell ill in Bigg Boss, she used to take care of me. She used to be very happy with me on Raksha Bandhan. I used to surprise her. I have so many fond memories of her. That's why I have tears in my eyes today," Hindustani Bhau added.
