He just came to me and said I have a fixed-term deposit, and it doesn’t help me if you have such problems. He wrote a check. The martyr is finished.
That’s Yusuf Hussein. Not my father-in-law, but my father. It would be like if life itself took a physical form. He left today. To remind all women in heaven that they are “Duniya ki sabse khubsurat ladki” and all men that they are “naujwaan rabbits”. And then ends with a booming “I love, I love, I love you”. Yusuf Saab. I owe you this new life. I am an orphan today. Life will never be the same again. I will miss you. My Urdu will still be broken. And yes – I love you, I love you, I love you!”
Bollywood actors, including Pooja Bhatt and Kubra Sait, responded to his tweet and expressed their condolences. Bhatt wrote: “It made me cry, Hansal. You can’t imagine how you feel. My condolences to everyone! While Sait’s answer was, “I’m sorry for your loss.”
