Dev Anand was 88 when he succumbed to a massive cardiac arrest in a London hospital. Ever since the news of his demise broke out, the refrain across his fans and well-wishers was a line from his song from "Hun Dono", "Abhi na jao chodkar ke dil abhi bhara nahin".
On his micro blogging site, Anupam Kherwrote: "Dev Saab was Kind, -Passionate, Courageous, Forthright, Charming, Encouraging, Contemporary, Always a leader and a Great Human. Will Miss him. So as a Tribute to Dev Saab let's only humm his Songs today. Songs which became such an integral part of our lives. Ahbi na jao chodkar...." When Amitabh Bachchan first tweeted about Dev saab, he was still praying that the news wasn't true. "Just reading news about Dev Saheb .. praying it is not true ! He was such a positive person .. never associated death with him... Had just met Dev Saheb at his premiere recently .. he was weak but full of spirit ..the news papers confirming his passing away ..sad. An era has come to an end .. Dev Anand leaves a void never perhaps to be filled again .. his never give up belief, his joy of life!"
Shabana Azmi, who also reminisced about director Manish Acharya who passed a year ago, wrote: "Dev Saheb robustly lived life on his own terms.he will be missed by millions but will live on thru his movies.I salute his spirit."
Mahesh Bhatt saluted the memory of the star "left us with the glow of his smile". "As the new dawn breaks over Mumbai I salute the memory of this star who has left left us with the glow of his smile," he wrote.
It took a while for the news to sink in for Madhur Bhandarkar even as he wrote: "Shocked to the core, a painful loss, a personal grief, cant believe DEVSAAB is no more ! Still the news is not sinking in,had celebrated his birthday with him,Devsaab was full of energy and life then,just cant believe !"
Director Kunal Kohli, on his part, wrote: "RIP Dev Anand. His spirit, energy, love for life and cinema will live on through his films. Love you Dev Saab."
Abhishek Bachchan was equally shocked. Wrote the actor, "Never believed I would ever wake up to this news. Very sad! Shocked to read of the passing of Dev Saab. Such a great man and actor. A symbol of positivity." Actor Divya Dutta has vivid memories of her last meeting of the legend at the premiere of his movie. "T last I met devsaab was at his premiere,sitting nxt to him, n seeing his smiling face,full of zest energy n ethusiasm..memories! Main zindagi ka sath nibhata chala gayam..RIP devsaab!

What legacy of great films n music! He indeed was a man of excellence and passion for cinema," the singer wrote.
