Malhotra further said in his post, “I miss his energy around me, he taught me how to care and be compassionate, taught me that emotional energy is all that matters in this world whichever form of being it comes from. He was my companion through thick and thin, always greeted me with the same enthusiasm regardless of my day or his health. My mornings are incomplete without him, coming back home and opening the door will no longer be the same. Despite Knowing that our life span is longer than theirs it still pains to experience it.”
Actress Kiara Advani, Malhotra's rumoured girlfriend, shared photos of the actor and Oscar with heart emojis on her Instagram Stories captioning it as “Best boys”.
