Anu Malik
It's indeed a very sad moment for the entire music industry. 53 is not an age for him to pass away. KK was a total family man and a great human being. I am at a complete loss of words. I really don't know what to say about KK's sudden death. All that I can say is that it's a huge loss for the entire music fraternity
Rahul Vaidya
I had met KK quite a few times for concerts. He always came across as a loving, kind and affectionate person. He always had a smile on his face. Jab bhi hum miley, KK bahut pyaar se miley (whenever we met, KK met me with lots of love)

Abhijit Sawant
The memories of meeting KK are still fresh in my mind. We shared a close relation musically. When I met him for the first time, he sang 'Yaaron'. The song and his voice still lingers in my heart. KK was a very sporting person who never showed any attitude of being a 'star'. He had an aura of an extremely down to earth and a simple human being
Aroon Bakshi
I am still in a state of shock and disbelief over the sudden death of KK. His death has left me speechless. Only a couple of days back, the music industry lost Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu (Sidhu Moose Wala). And now KK. The music industry has lost two gems.
Altaf Raja
KK was a great singer and an extremely down to earth human being. Although I never got a chance to perform with him, I have high regards for KK as a human being. I have never seen anyone so humble like KK.
