The sudden death of director Salil Singh, son of producer B P Singh, while shooting an episode of Savdhan India on Tuesday night, came as a shock to the TV world. Salil who was in his 30s, suffered a massive cardiac arrest.

We spoke to actor Shivaji Satam, who has been a part of CID for the past 19 years, and has worked with him. Shivaji said, “This is a huge loss. I am shocked. Salil was wonderful to work with. He respected his seniors and we liked working with him. I know him since the day he first said 'action' on the sets. Salil and his wife Madhvi were always family for me. I remember he was child actor in a Marathi TV show, which was directed by his father B P Singh.“
