"Woh bhagwan ki beti thi, bhagwan ke paas chali gayi (She was god's daughter, she has gone to god)," said Taruni's father.
Her maternal uncle said, "Apni maa ke saath teerth yatra par gayi thi aur yeh sab ho gaya (She had gone on a pilgrimage with her mother). We are still in state of shock."
Taruni and her mother were among 13 Indians who were killed when an aircraft crashed into a hill while coming in to land at Jomsom in western Nepal.

Abhishek Bachchan was equally saddened.
Actor Abhishek Bachchan was equally saddened and tweeted, "SHOCKED and very saddened to hear about the Nepal plane crash. Lost one of my cutest co-stars. Little Taruni Sachdev from PAA. Speechless."
