While I appreciate his contributions, I wish the media would focus more on his work than political figures paying respects. The real tribute is celebrating his art that touched millions.

Only 65? Too young to go 😞 His performances in "Gaddi Chaldi Hai Chhalla Maarke" were iconic. The way he could make serious points through comedy was pure genius. Om Shanti 🕊️
