Sanjay Dutt,
This news has left me heartbroken. Saroj ji was not just a legend but also a humble person. We shared a beautiful relationship & worked in many films together. Her contribution to the industry is irreplaceable as there was no one who could dance like her. Om Shanti. pic.twitter.com/bTh1PkuN4X

Shah Rukh Khan
My first genuine teacher in the film industry. She taught me for hours how to do the ‘dip’ for film dancing. One of the most caring, loving & inspiring persona i have ever met. Will miss you Sarojji. May Allah bless her soul. Thank u for looking after me.

Ajay Devgn
Being a Technician’s son, I’ve always known that cinema is as much about a behind-the-scenes person as it is about actors. RIP Saroj ji. You were an institution; your craft inimitable. Condolences to your family ?

Priyanka Chopra Jonas
To me, she’ll always be an institution that defined an era of dancing with abandon, emotion & passion. गुन गुन गुना रे… May the heavens dance to your tune Masterji… #RIPSarojKhan

Many of my teenage dreams came true when she choreographed me in Agneepath. Taskmaster, perfectionist, innovator, trendsetter, genius… Saroj ji was many things to many people.

Sad to hear about the passing of Saroji. A Genius and a mastercraftman at her work! A legend choregrapher. You will be missed Saroji. No one like you and your adahs and the understanding of sensuality. ?????
