On the other hand, actor Anil Kapoor shared a video montage of the two of them together in their old films such as ‘Mr India’ (1987) and ‘Ram Lakhan’ (1989), and wrote, "I miss you beyond words..."
One of his most iconic camaraderie of the two was seen in Sridevi and Anil-starrer ‘Mr India’, in which Kaushik starred as Calendar.
Anil further wrote, "While I sit here trying to find the right words or just any words really to express what I feel right now…I want to fill books telling you what you mean to me but I know you already knew that…in the 3 mins of this video, I relived so many of our memories. I wish we had more time…I wish I could call you and tell you just one more time how lucky I am to have you in my life… I miss you beyond words Satish… I pray that everyone has a friend like you in their life because you were a true blessing… Happy birthday my friend…"
