Sumeet Raghav took to Instagram on Saturday to post a video message expressing his anguish at Satish Shah's death. Sarabhai Vs Sarabhai's cast had a strong friendship, and photos of their reunion went popular on social media a few years ago. Sumeet noted in his video that the show only aired 70 episodes in 2004 due to low audience, but it has since become a cultural phenomenon. He stated that there can only ever be one Indravadan, Satish Shah. Reflecting on their relationship, he stated that they would address each other as their characters whenever they met. “The bigger this show became, the stronger our bond grew. So whenever we would meet each other, we were not Sumeet, Rupali, or Rajesh. We talked to each other as Sahil, Monisha, Rosesh, Dad, and Mom," he said.
