Singer KK was brought dead to our hospital. The body has been kept in our mortuary for the night and has already been formally handed over to the police.
He was extremely fit and would always ask me to take care. He was a great friend. I can't believe this has happened.
He was brilliant at the show and was the showstopper. He performed for two hours nonstop jumping and dancing while singing one chartbuster after another. The auditorium was jam packed. It was so crowded that audiences also felt suffocated.
