Bollywood pays tribute to nurse Aruna Shanbaug

Bollywood celebrities mourned the death of former KEM Hospital nurse Aruna Shanbaug, who passed away today after living in a vegetative state for the past 42 years following a brutal sexual assault.

Satish Kaushik said, "42 Years... My god... Terrible.. Aruna Shanbaug at last got rid of her miseries and pain... May heaven be the happiest place for her... RIP.
