Shakti Kapoor in an interview with Hindustan Times spoke about his equation and the relationship he shared with Kader Khan. "I learnt a lot from him and I will miss him a lot. He once told me that his acting career began as a theatre artist. He was a professor in a college and would come up with dialogues while riding the scooter. His assistant, who would be riding pillion, would write them down. I always told him that he was my guru; I used to touch his feet. We were the best of friends. I would never leave him alone for a moment when we were together and not shooting because there was so much to learn," he said.
Kader, 81, is survived by his wife Hajra, sons Sarfaraz and Shahnawaz and grandchildren.
