Saroj Khan Dies At 71: Sunil Grover, Nimrat Kaur, Akshay Kumar & other celebs offer condolences

Legendary Bollywood choreographer Saroj Khan is no more. The ace dancer, who made us all dance to her tunes, has left for her heavenly abode earlier this morning. She was admitted to a Bandra hospital earlier even for breathing issues, but she recovered and was back home after recovery when suddenly she had a cardiac arrest late last night and was rushed to the hospital again. Sadly, she couldn’t make it this time. Many B-Town celebs have come forth and expressed their condolences. Have a look:
