New Delhi: Sidharth Shukla's sudden death in the prime of his life and at the peak of his TV career, and the terrible state of his rumoured girlfriend, have left young actors shaken -- and the ones IANS spoke to, didn't even know the late actor personally. It's been a wake-up call for them as they cofront the ghost of life's unpredictability.   Articulating the prevailing sentiment, actor Himansh Kohli said in a conversation with IANS: "I don't think that words can ever portray the pain each one of us felt when we heard about Sidharth's untimely demise. I did not know him personally, but still, deep down, I'm deeply affected. His death has made me rethink our obsession with long-term planning. We need to invest in today more than in tomorrow."
