As Bollywood was coming to terms with the loss of Irrfan, Rishi Kapoor, Wajid Khan and Sushant Singh Rajput in the past 2-3 months, the news of Saroj Khan's demise shook the industry from its core once again. The veteran choreographer who has played an important role in teaching dance to actresses breathed her last during the wee hours of July 3. She died of cardiac arrest and was said to be suffering from severe diabetes and age-related illness.
Kareena Kapoor Khan, who teamed up with the veteran choreographer for the song Yeh Ishq Haye from Jab We Met, shared a heartfelt note. Recalling her advice, the actress said Masterji taught her to enjoy dancing and smile through the eyes. "Master ji always told me... perrr nahin chala saktiii toh kam se kam face toh chalaaaaa. That’s what she taught me... to enjoy dancing, smile and smile through the eyes. There can never be another... Dance and expression can never be the same for us actors and for everyone who loved her... Love you master ji. Till we dance again... RIP," Kareena wrote while sharing an unseen behind-the-scenes picture with Saroj Khan.
Saroj Khan was honoured with the National Award for Yeh Ishq Haye. She went on to team with Kareena once again for Agent Vinod's song Dil Mera Muft Ka.
