Kamal has released a statement mourning the death of Srividya.

I have lost a good friend in her death. She had been great support and encouraged me in several endeavors. She was friend and a film critic too.

I cherish all those moments working with her. A pillar of confidence, Sri Vidhya fought her illness courageously in a dignified manner.

The film industry has lost an actress who was capable of doing any role.

Kamal visited Srividya just a few days earlier.
