The funeral had taught him life`s big secret. Aly said: "Life is so unpredictable and very unfair at times. I attended the funeral and I am still so numb. You will be missed, Sidharth"

Sidharth Shukla`s sudden death in the prime of his life and at the peak of his TV career, and the terrible state of his rumoured girlfriend, have left young actors shaken -- and the ones IANS spoke to, didn`t even know the late actor personally. It`s been a wake-up call for them as they cofront the ghost of life`s unpredictability.
Articulating the prevailing sentiment, actor Himansh Kohli said in a conversation with IANS: "I don`t think that words can ever portray the pain each one of us felt when we heard about Sidharth`s untimely demise. I did not know him personally, but still, deep down, I`m deeply affected. His death has made me rethink our obsession with long-term planning. We need to invest in today more than in tomorrow."
