After Asha’s funeral was held on Monday, Zanai posted a video on her Instagram, writing, “As I wake up this morning, I realise I have lost my partner in crime, my best friend, a person who completed my entire world and the first person to hold me when I was born. What do I do now? Who am I supposed to wake up and give a hug to in the morning and have chai with? Who’s going to be waiting for me every day when I come home or who am I supposed to crack lame jokes with.” She also looked heartbroken at Asha’s funeral and was consoled by Tabu.
