Calls
Sameer
A
Gem
Of
A
Person
Shrenu
told
ETimesTV
that
although
she
wasn't
in
touch
with
him,
she
had
a
bunch
of
beautiful
memories
of
working
with
him
on
the
show.
She
called
him
a
gem
of
a
person
and
very
talented.
Actress
Says
He
Was
Jovial
&
Cheerful
Always
The
actress
said,
"He
was
a
great
actor,
I've
been
thinking
about
the
old
times
when
we
worked
together.
He
was
jovial,
cheerful
always.
He
was
such
an
intelligent
person
and
you
could
discuss
anything
with
him.
Be
it
current
affairs,
what's
happening
around
the
world,
he
would
be
so
on
his
toes
always.
He
was
a
very
creative
person
and
would
crack
intelligent
jokes.
I
don't
know
what
pushed
him
towards
it
and
what
went
wrong
with
him.
I
just
really
wish
he
did
not
take
this
step.
It
is
so
disheartening
and
heartbreaking."

Recalls
Moments
Spent
With
Sameer
On
the
other
hand,
Geetanjali
Tikekar,
who
met
him
on
the
sets
of
IPKKND,
recalled
moments
spent
with
him
on
the
sets
and
said
that
even
though
he
was
older
than
her,
he
was
playing
her
son.
He
would
often
mock
her
a
lot
for
it.
She
added
that
they
bonded
on
the
same
level
because
they
had
similar
likes.
She
also
said
that
their
on-screen
camaraderie
was
fabulous.
Geetanjali
Unable
To
Get
Over
The
Tragic
News
The
actress
was
in
tears
and
was
unable
to
get
over
the
tragic
news.
She
revealed
to
ETimesTV,
"I
am
badly
shaken.
He
was
a
close
friend.
Yes,
we
were
in
touch
with
each
other
throughout
and
even
after
the
show.
In
fact,
Sameer
and
my
husband
Sikandar
Kharbanda
were
in
touch
with
each
other
throughout
during
the
lockdown.
He
shared
such
a
great
bond
with
all
of
us.
With
every
show,
I
take
few
people
into
my
life
who
become
an
integral
part.
Sameer
was
one
such
friend."
She
Further
Added…
"I
am
so
disappointed
that
nobody
knew
that
he
had
gone
two
days
ago.
Sam
had
this
tendency
of
randomly
being
out
of
touch
and
we
knew
he
would
either
be
travelling
or
will
be
on
any
road
trip.
We
didn't
really
notice
much.
Just
before
the
lockdown,
we
spoke
to
each
other
and
throughout
the
lockdown
he
was
in
touch
with
my
husband.
Just
10-12
days
ago,
he
spoke
to
my
husband,
it
was
just
a
casual
chat.
He
had
a
very
regular
conversation
and
he
sounded
fine."
What
Might
Have
Triggered
Sameer
To
Take
Such
Drastic
Step?
When
asked
what
might
have
triggered
him
to
take
such
drastic
step,
she
said,
"Without
confirming
a
few
facts,
I
would
not
like
to
divulge
much.
But
the
Sam
I
know
was
an
extremely
sensitive
and
highly
emotional
person.
So,
it
is
possible
that
something
must
have
triggered
him
off.
I
can't
say
much.
He
was
a
person
who
thought
about
everything.
If
you
read
about
his
posts
also,
they
were
very
dark.
Somewhere
I
would
tell
him
also,
that
your
thoughts
are
so
deep
are
you
drowning
into
your
own
depth
and
that's
what
happened.
He
was
not
in
a
good
space
emotionally
that's
for
sure.
Professionally,
he
was
doing
fine
and
he
had
a
fantastic
friend
circle
who
he
knew
could
do
anything
for
him."
