Mumbai: Actor Aditya Srivastava expressed his grief over the untimely demise of his ‘CID’ co-actor Dinesh Phadnis, and shared they were like a family, calling him the ‘pillar of strength’.
Aditya, who played Senior Inspector Abhijeet in the show said, “At midnight 12.08 he left us. He got a reaction with a medicine due to which there was a problem with the liver, and then there was a multiple organ failure situation. He was hospitalised for the past two-three days and yesterday he passed away.”
The ‘Super 30’ fame actor said, “We had a long association with each other, it was like family. We were together for more than 20 years for the show. We used to meet on different occasions, and situations. The way he was on the screen, similarly he was in real life. ‘Bahut zinda dil tha’. He was jovial, caring, and a good friend. We are still in shock.”
Another star Actress Shraddha Musale on Tuesday expressed her grief over the untimely demise of her ‘CID’ co-actor Dinesh Phadnis, and recalled fond memories with him, adding that he was ‘dil ka saaf insaan’. Shraddha said, “This was kind of sudden for us. Like we knew he was a little unwell, a little bit of liver and heart issues. For the past six months the health issues had increased a bit, so we knew that his health is not good. But in the past 3-4 days it has deteriorated more.”
Dinesh, who played the role of ‘Fredericks’ in the India’s longest running television show ‘CID’, passed away in Mumbai.
