Actress, singer and comedian Sugandha Mishra, who has been part of comedy shows like 'The Great Indian Laughter Challenge' and 'The Kapil Sharma Show' paid tribute to colleague Raju Srivastava, who passed away on Wednesday. 

Mishra told mid-day.com, "The news is shocking and heart-wrenching. I had been on a two month long world tour with him. That’s when I got the opportunity to know him well, he was a great artiste but a fantastic person too. He would motivate me and solve the most difficult situations with simplicity and laughter. He was the brand ambassador for ‘Masti’ channel, which is when he met me and appreciated my performances."
