And I could hear wailing from Khushi's room. And I think I barged into her room, howling and crying. But what I do remember, Karan, is that she looked at me. The minute she looked at me, she just stopped crying. She just stopped. She just sat next to me and started comforting me, and I've never seen her cry about it ever since," Janhvi added.
Both the sisters got emotional as they recalled the dreadful day when they lost their mother and the nation lost a legendary actress.
