"His Kindness Shone From His Eyes..."

"His kindness shone from his eyes, his graciousness from every word he uttered. His smile as shy as a young boy's, only he could make a person feel hugged with just a handshake," she wrote, adding, "Dharamji, the younger me would never have even imagined getting the chance to ever see you, let alone get the chance to perform with you, talk to you and express just how much I have always been a fan of you as an actor and even more, as an almost child like, beautiful human being.”

Archana ended her note by praying for Dharmendra's family and hoping he ‘ rest in eternal peace in the arms of the Almighty.' "You have left millions of heartbroken, but the world is richer for having been with us for so many decades. Love you forever, Dharamji," she wrote.
