His attention to detail, his negotiating skills, his hard, hard work, and most of all, his friendship. Always a call away, if you needed some help. Fun conversations, like the one we were having in Bengaluru just before a show. Finding it hard to believe he’s gone. Be in peace, my friend! You will be missed, terribly,” she wrote.

Indian theatre director Anamika Haksar wrote a tribute on Facebook, saying, “There are honestly very few people like Sachin kamani. When we shifted to Mumbai, even though I knew Atul Kumar and through him got to know Sachin it was Sachin who always helped. Giving, loving connecting. From rehearsal space s to props to any small demand... amazing human being. Not seen anyone like him. so naturally loving so non egoistic. when I had my surgery he connected me to theatre people in Ahmedabad. The way his theatre friends have been around him and cared for him is a lesson for life.something to learn from. My last photo with him Marie Luzina and Karina Tsaturova from the chekhov festival. You are just the best. Gone too too soon (sic).”

Bhushan Korgaonkar, playwright, told HT, “A family member speaking at the funeral said it was only now that they realised how many people cared for him, seeing so many from his work life gathered there.”
