The

has
come

for
the
whole
nation.
She
breathed
her
last
after
suffering
a
heart
attack
on
Tuesday
night.
She
was
67.
As
soon
as
the
news
broke
in,
many
Bollywood
celebrities
took
to
Twitter
to
offer
their
condolences.
Amongst
them
was
singer
Adnan
Sami,
who
penned
a
heartfelt
note
to
express
his
grief.
Calling
Sushma
Swaraj
a
motherly
figure,
the
singer
tweeted,
"My
family
&
I
are
in
complete
shock
to
learn
the

ji's

for

an
extremely
respected
stateswoman;
exceptional
orator
&
a
very
loving,
caring
&
warm
soul.
Will
miss
her
dearly.

Back
in
May
2015,
Adnan
had
applied
for
Indian
citizenship
after
his
Pakistani
passport
got
expired.
Sushma
Swaraj,
who
then
served
as
the
Indian
Minister
of
External
Affairs
under
Prime
Minister
Narendra
Modi,
apparently
helped
him
to
get
Indian
citizenship.
Adnan
was
finally
granted
the
Indian
citizenship
in
January
2016.
Meanwhile,
Bollywood
celebrities
like
Amitabh
Bachchan,
Vicky
Kaushal,
Anil
Kapoor,
Madhuri
Dixit
took
to
Twitter
to
pay
their
tributes
to
the
political
leader.
Big
B
tweeted
in
Hindi,
"Mridubhashi,
sammohak
varta,
milansaar,
dukhharta.
Sushma
ji
jaisi
ka
rikt
sthan
kabhi
nahin
bharta."

भरता।।'
