The note by JNAF read, “We are deeply saddened by the news of artist Lalitha Lajmi’s passing. Lajmi was a self-taught artist with a keen interest in classical dance. Her works had an element of melancholy and performance, seen here in her artwork, ‘Dance of Life and Death’.”

At the Times LitFest held last weekend, author Yasser Usman spoke about his book Guru Dutt: An Unfinished Story. He revealed that Lalita Lajmi still regrets that she couldn’t help her brother. “While researching for this book, his sister told me they could have saved him. He was crying for help. He was not talking to them. And, that remains a major regret in his brother’s and his sister’s life,” he had said.
