Recalling the time when she played his mother in 2015, Khanna revealed, "In 2015, I had the opportunity to work with Leena ji. She played my mother on-screen in Seth Ji. I was playing the role of Ganesh Rao, a Maharashtrian."
He added, "I would call her Maeri instead of Maa. We shared a great bond. Being a bachelor staying alone in Mumbai, she would get food for me and say 'Betu khana kha le'. She was a very fun loving person."
Talking about the actress' health issues, this is what the actor had to say, "I knew she had health issues in 2015. She was surviving on one kidney and working. She had suffered many health ailments in between and in past four months her health had deteriorated a lot. She was an experienced actor and I will remember her forever."
May her soul rest in peace.
