He was not only a colleague or a fellow musician, but an elder brother to me. He was the guiding light in so many situations that I had to face in my early stages of my career. It is a big shock for me. My love and prayers for his family. We have not only lost a big and a great musician, but a very-very good human being. I am extremely sad about it. It feels like yesterday when we were working on the Dabangg 3 album. It was my honour to sing a song which was composed so beautifully and executed by the talented duo. We will miss him as this is one of the biggest losses seen in the world of music.”
