Tunisha's co-actor Rumi Khan spoke to Bombay Times. He said, "I am shocked! I still can't believe this. Yesterday I wasn't shooting, but around 2 pm we had a quick chat over messages."

Rumi and Tunisha shared a beautiful bond. He said, "Tunisha was a very well-behaved girl and a fine actress. On the career front, she was doing so well. We shared a lovely bond."


He added, “She was like a daughter to me. She lost her father a few years ago and used to tell me that I resembled him. That was our special bond and I really cared for her. My heart goes out to her mother and all her fans. I don’t know how this happened and I am completely shocked even now. It's unbelievable."

A few hours before her death, Tunisha had put up an Instagram story where she was getting her make up done for the shoot.
