Soon after the news broke out, several celebrities started pouring in their condolence messages. Television personality and actor Vindu Dara Singh also paid his heartfelt tribute to the director. “Wonderful soul may god give his family the strength to beat this irreplaceable loss," Vindu tweeted.

Notably, Khurrana launched Vindu back in 1994 with Karan alongside Trishna Kanwar. However, he rose to fame in the entertainment industry after winning the third season of Bigg Boss.
If we look back in history, Khurrana not only launched Vindu but also believed that he was the first director to sign popular Bollywood actor Vinod Khanna as a hero. Vinod Khanna was popularly known for his roles as an antagonist in films back in the mid-90. The late actor caught the attention of the audience and critics with his impeccable acting chops in the blockbuster hit Mera Gaon Mera Desh where he essayed the role of a villain. In the same year, Khurrana signed him as the lead actor in Hum Tum Aur Woh.
Shiv Kumar Khurana also worked with Ashok Kumar, Vinod Mehra and Joy Mukherjee among many others. He directed at least 18 Hindi films. His last movie was Krishna Tere Desh Mein in 1999 which failed to mark its presence at the box office.
