On the other hand, Anupam told a leading daily that he remembered Sandeep as a ‘happy-go-lucky’ man. He told the daily, “I didn't know about it last night, but I read about him a few hours back and immediately connected his presence in M S Dhoni: The Untold Story. Sandeep was a happy-go-lucky guy. I met him on the sets of that film only. I had about two-three scenes with him. He had more scenes with other actors in the film but he was undoubtedly a good actor."

Besides, Kesari and MS Dhoni: The Untold Story, Sandeep had also worked in Khandaani Shafakhana, Kehne Ko Humsafar Hain and others. The actor was found unconscious at his flat in suburban Goregaon in the evening, by his wife Kanchan and friends, who took him to SVR Hospital, where he was declared dead on arrival, a police official said, according to news agency PTI. He had posted a ‘suicide note’ on Facebook, along with a nine-minute video.
