Bohot bhayankar samay tha. Hum sab dukh mein doob gaye the. Is waqt main Unki yaad ko pranam karti hun aur shraddhanjali arpan karti hun.
     
    "(Today is Mukesh bhaiya's 39th death anniversary. He passed away following a heart attack during our show in Detroit. That was a terrible time. We all were deeply saddened. Today I am remembering him and paying my respects to him)".
