Several Bollywood celebrities mourned his demise on social media. Apart from Tiger Shroff, his mother Ayesha Shroff, Siddhant Kapoor, Neil Nitin Mukesh, Deanne Panday, Ruslaan Mumtaz and others have offered condolences.
Sharing his dreams and goals in an interview with mid-day, back in 2015, the fitness trainer was quoted saying, "Initially, as a teenager, I had dreams of winning the Mr Universe. I won a few state-level competitions and competed well at the nationals (I was also considered to be in the Top 10 best bodybuilders in the country in 2005). My first client was the Bajaj industrial family. From 1991-1999, through word of mouth, I trained family members of almost all the top industrial families, including members from the Birla, Singhania, Garware and Khatau families. Hence, I am called a pioneer of personal training. In 2003, I decided to take up education in the fitness industry seriously and co-founded the K11 Fitness Academy. Today, K11 is the premier institute for certification of fitness professionals in the Indian fitness industry."
