True Love & friendship lasts longer... even after death.



Pragjee Thakkar (78), Bhayandar residing senior citizen died on Monday after he fell from his bed in the morning. When his best friend Sevantilal Shah(82) got news about his friend’s death around 3 pm, he rushed to see his body. His heart was broken in grief of losing his close friend. He returned his home and asked son to bring a glass of water. By the time son returned to Sevantilal, he too died in shock. Both were known to be very close friend for many years. Their body was taken to civic crematorium where they kept side by side as last rituals performed by society members. You must have remembered about Pallavi, a lawyer & daughter of an IAS officer working with Excel Entertainment (Farhan Akhtar’s Production unit), who was killed by her own building watchman while protesting him for raping. Watchman failed to rape her and he stabbed her several time & she succumbed to her injuries.

You might know about Avik Sen Gupta. He was a live in partner of Pallavi. After one year of Pallavi’s death, Avik Sen Gupta also died. He too suffered from a broken heart. He was unable to manage himself after the death of his girlfriend. His family tried every possible thing to overcome the grief of Pallavi’s death but he didn’t respond to his treatment.

Every day I think about true love, true friendships have died but these two cases will keep my eyes opened. How a lover died after his girlfriend passed away… how a friend died after his close friend passed away. These two incidents will become reminiscent forever in my head. I respect and pray for both souls who passed away last day in Bhayandar & Pallavi’s murder was even more unfortunate. She could have been saved if residents had helped her. No one came forward to help when she was screaming. She kept on asking for help but she was finally murdered by a pervert.
