Ketki Dave about her late husband Rasik Dave: He kept saying that all will be fine and I should not lose hope

Actor Rasik Dave, who has appeared in a number of Hindi and Gujarati movies and shows, passed away on Friday after fighting a prolonged illness. The actor’s wife, Ketki Dave, has now opened up about her husband and said how he kept telling her that everything will be fine and not to lose hope. 

Talking to Times of India, Ketki said, “Rasik never wanted to talk about his illness. So, we never shared about his deteriorating health with anyone. He was a very private person and believed that all will be fine. But, deep down, we knew somewhere that he was not well.

She also said that in his last few days, the late actor told her that she should keep working and that the show must go on and never stop. She added that even though he was unwell, her husband kept saying that all will be fine and that she should never lose hope. 

Ketki further added that she is managing things bravely as she has her family members, her mother, children and mother-in-law by her side and who are all supporting her. She also added that she misses her husband very much. 

Ketki, who is also an actor, remembered the first time she met her late husband on the sets of a play back in 1979. She said they liked each other instantly and that they fell in love as they were working together in plays and TV shows. She further stated that she was happy after 40 years of marriage because the late actor was someone who believed that life has to be lived well. 

Rasik is known for movies such as Jhoothi and TV shows like Ek Mahal Ho Sapno Ka, Mahabharat, and Sanskaar - Dharohar Apnon Ki. Ketki has also appeared in shows such as Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Behenein.
