"Lost a friend and a genuinely lovely person today. I'm so sorry to hear of your passing #niteshpandey.

Travel to the other side in peace my friend," the actor said.
Commenting on the deaths of Pandey, Vaibhavi Upadhyaya and Aditya Singh Rajput, filmmaker Hansal Mehta said the industry has lost three young actors within a span of three-four days.
"Rest In Peace dear colleagues. This is such an unkind time. Prayers with their grieving families," he said.
