"I met her when I was 18, she was 14. I looked into her eyes and I was like khuda ko dekh rha hoo (watching a god). I asked her, Will you marry me? She looked at me with a smile and said If I feel the same about you the way I do now, then I willl say yes after one year. So I said, even without her beauty, she is also an intelligent woman who would make a good wife," said Sanjay Khan

"Zarine Sanjay Khan to the world, but to me and my siblings, simply our mother.

Respect to Hrithik Roshan for being there despite the divorce. Shows true character and Indian family values. Not many would attend their ex-mother-in-law's prayer meet.

While the tributes are touching, I wish media would give families more privacy during such difficult times. The constant coverage can be overwhelming for grieving families.
