Kanishka Soni, who has worked with Gagan in Hanumaan has expressed remorse over his death. She shares with IndiaWikiMedia: “We used to spend a lot of time together, singing, chatting..he had a great sense of humour. He was a great communicator. He was super intelligent too.”
The actress further continues, “Hanumaan sets used to be lively with his presence. But the saddest part is that, if I am not mistaken, he was the only son to his parents. He used to stay with his mother and say, ‘jo kuch bhi hai mom ka hai…mera kuch nahin. I am feeling sad for his mom who had so many dreams for him.” “My only request to people is please drive slow. Life is more important than work or anything,” she added further.
