Late Saroj Khan
It's yet another dark day for Bollywood as ace choreographer Saroj Khan breathed her last after a cardiac arrest. The legendary 'masterji' passed away at age 71, leaving behind her husband, a son and two daughters. Saroj Khan's funeral was conducted in the most respectful and private manner owing to the coronavirus lockdown in the city. It took place early this morning at the Malad Marve burial ground.
Now, Saroj Khan's family has announced on social media that as of now, they won't be organising a prayer meet for the legend due to the current COVID-19 situation in the city. Here's what they posted, "Thank you for all your messages and for keeping Mummy in your prayers. Given the current COVID-19 situation, there will be no prayer meet. Whenever the situation improves, we will meet and celebrate the life of Saroj Khan."
