Sunil said, “Priya Raju bhai. Aapke dukhat khabar pata chali. Biswas karna toh mushkil hain…bohot muskil hain. Kaash aaj ka din nahi aata. 40 din se aap jo jung ladh rahe the, roz prarthana kar rahe the ki koi chamatkar hoga. Aapki jo khabar aayi hai, kabhi sapne mai bhi nahi socha tha. Bohot zyada dukhat din hai aaj ke liye. Parivaar walon ke liye sabke liye very sad news. Biswas kaise kare.. Aapko hasta, khelta, gata suna, dekha hain…”
