Sagar had worked with the actor in over 50 films. Salman posted a photo with Sagar from his 2015 film Bajrangi Bhaijaan sets and wrote a heartfelt condolence note for him as he grieved his demise. Sagar was 50 years old.
Sharing the picture, Salman wrote, “Dil se shukar adda kar raha hoon for being there with me . May your soul rest in peace brother Sagar. Thank u #RIP #SagarPandey.”
Sagar had appeared in more than 50 films with Salman. He had worked as a body double for Salman in big films like Bajrangi Bhaijaan, Tubelight, Prem Ratan Dhan Payo, Dabangg, Dabangg 2 and TV shows like Bigg Boss. Several celebs like Anupam Kher and Sangeeta Bijlani and Salman’s bodyguard Shera also condoled Sagar’s death and expressed their grief in the comments section of the actor’s post.
Shah Rukh Khan’s body double Prashant Walde had first confirmed the news of Sagar’s demise. He had told an online portal, “Sagar was working in the gym when he suddenly collapsed. He was immediately taken to Hindu Hruday Samrat Balasaheb Thackerey Trauma Care Municipal Hospital at Jogeshwari East, Mumbai. That’s where he was declared dead. I am quite shocked. He was perfectly fit and healthy. He was too young to pass away. His age must have been around 45-50 years."
