Megastar Amitabh Bachchan, who shared screen space with actor Deven Verma in many films including super-hits Kabhie Kabhie and Silsila , said his ‘friend’ brought smiles to many faces.

Mr. Verma passed away on Tuesday morning at his residence in Pune following a heart attack. He was 78.

“Deven Verma... Friend, co-artist, producer and one that brought smiles on the faces of millions… No more! Prayers and condolences.

“Deven Verma... Shall never be able to repeat our patent greeting: “this floor is made of cement concrete.”

RIP,” Bachchan posted on Twitter.

Bachchan, 72, had also worked in Kabutar and Besharam which were among those produced and directed by Mr. Verma.

The Bhootnath Returns star is currently in Ahmedabad shooting his upcoming movie Piku , which talks about the relationship of a father and daughter.
