Richa Chadha shared an extensive note for the ace filmmaker, an excerpt from which read, “Dear Sanjay Leela Bhansali. I can describe my life as an actor by dividing my career into two parts… pre-SLB and post SLB! What can I even say about you? We know how we feel. We know the point where our ideas meet mid-air and give birth to magic… no words are uttered, the set looks on… but a gaze is exchanged and a new character is born each time, a character that will outlive both you and me… and that is your love-soaked, moist-eyed gift to the world. I love you.”

I am who I am because of you. I’m privileged to have worked with you and witnessed the genius that is Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Every project I have worked on my respect for you increases 10x, because you are constantly trying to improve yourself in all aspects. People call you a school of cinema. But you are so much more than that, you are one of the strongest, most intuitive, sharpest mind that I know and I’m really lucky to have you as a part of my life. I promise to never take that for granted.”

Sanjeeda Shaikh, who is also a part of Heeramandi, wrote in an Instagram entry, “You super human. You are a gift for every actor and I got it. You have made a lasting impact in my life.
