Bollywood celebrities like Asha Bhosle, Sridevi and Shabana Azmi have expressed shock and grief at the “sudden” and “unfortunate” demise of Indian Minister of State for Human Resources Shashi Tharoor's wife Sunanda Pushkar. They remember her as an exuberant person with a zest for life.

Sunanda, who was active in social circuits, was found dead in a New Delhi hotel room Friday night.
