Very sad news. Brain strokes are so sudden and terrifying. It's good to see the TV industry coming together to support one of their own during such a tough time. Strength to the family.

The line "Aap ki baatein hamesha hamare saath rahengi" is so profound. It shows how memories and teachings are the real legacy. Respect for Arjun for being such a supportive son-in-law and husband. Condolences.

Om Shanti. Losing a father is one of life's deepest pains. Arjun's promise to take care of Neha and Ayaan is what every father would want to hear. Wishing them peace.

While the sentiment is beautiful, I sometimes feel these very public, emotional social media posts from celebrities can add pressure. Grief is deeply personal. But if it helps him cope, then who are we to judge. Heart goes out to them.

This hits close to home. Lost my dad last year. That promise to look after the family... it's the biggest responsibility and the greatest honor. Strength to Arjun Bijlani and Neha ji. Time is the only healer.
