Actor Jasmin Bhasin, who worked with late actor Sidharth Shukla on the TV show Dil Se Dil Tak, recently got emotional while remembering him in an interview with an online media . She said his death taught her an important life lesson, and it is to sort out differences with people because life is unpredictable.

The actor spoke about her friends and his memories in an interview with an online media. She also recounted that she got to know about his passing while travelling from Kashmir to Mumbai.

Remembering Sidharth

Looking back, she said, “The news came out, it was shocking. I was in Kashmir. I didn’t have internet or cellular network. I was at the airport and people were murmuring about his demise. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. But the moment I landed in Mumbai, I became numb. I was numb for many days. He was gone. I couldn’t accept the fact that he was actually gone. His death taught me the biggest lesson of life, that nothing is permanent. Toh waqt rehte sare gile shikwe door kar lene chahiye kyunki waqt ka kuch pata nahin (It is important to sort out issues when you have time). The person is gone but you live with the pain and regret that kash baat karliya hota”.

Her bond with Sid

Jasmin also spoke about her bond with the late actor. She called him her ‘biggest cheerleader’ on the sets of their show. At that time, she said she used to feel nervous on the set as she was surrounded by senior actors. It was Sidharth who motivated her.

She added, “He was my best friend on the set. We would eat together; we would go out together after the pack-up. It was a beautiful time. It was a full circle of friendship as we had our own share of misunderstandings and some incidents. But I have always respected him for the man he was, especially to women.”

Jasmin called Sidharth as a ‘gem of a person’, saying it breaks her heart to talk about him in the past tense.
