Saroj Khan, who has single-handedly given new dimensions to dance forms and choreography, breathed her last at the age of 72 in Mumbai. (Also Read: Riddhima Kapoor Recreates Mom, Neetu and Dad, Rishi Kapoor's 'Twinning In Black' Picture With Mommy)

While the nation is mourning over another loss, it is the biggest loss to her family. Every daughter is utterly close to her mother and losing a mother is like losing a limb. Growing up, our mother is the person, who constantly ensures our safety and well-being. She is the first person, we look up to and losing her must be an unbearable pain. Saroj Khan's mortal remains were taken to the Awais-e-Qarni Muslim Kabristan in Malad for burial, early morning, and her daughter is inconsolable and burst into tears outside the cemetery due to the loss.
