Rest In Peace, Sridevi

In the tragic passing away of Sridevi, we have encountered a tragedy that is perhaps even bigger than her demise.
The way people have begun speculating about every possible scenario and the way every More-than-smart Know-it-all-Alec has started jumping to conclusions, is sad...even disturbing.

When one does not know the exact sequence of events, when one is so far off from what transpired, the scene of the incident, and in the absence of a first-hand account or the details of the 'crime' scene, who is anyone/how can people so conveniently run up every facet of their imagination/conspiracy theory, and pronounce their judgement in their self-anointed fast-tracked court of justice?

Alas, be that as the way it is, what I found worth sharing (in case you haven't read it already), was a heartfelt letter.
An open letter that Ram Gopal Verma wrote, as an ardent fan, whose adoration, admiration and love for her is palpable in the words that have poured through, straight from his heart, into this letter.

This is a person who is sad, distraught, even agonized and shattered.
He has not minced any expression - be it his feelings, his recollections, and their intensity (regarding the memories of his experiences and times with her) or the pain that he has felt on losing her.

We will miss you Sridevi, the great legend.

From all your fans:
May God rest your soul in peace.
Rest In Peace. Rock In Peace.
