Mann said he had worked with the popular comedian and learnt a lot from him.
In a tweet in Hindi, Mann said, "#Raju Srivastav ji made us laugh a lot in his life but today it is very sad to hear this news … worked a lot with him and also learnt a lot.?
"Raju ji may not be with us physically but his performance will always remain alive in our hearts. We'll miss you ‘Gajodhar Bhaiya’," he said.
Before he entered politics, Mann too was a well-known comedian and satirist.
Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar also paid his tributes to the popular comedian.
“The one who made everyone laugh, today left everyone's eyes moist,” said Khattar in a tweet.
Former Haryana Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda too condoled with Srivastava's fans and families, calling the comedian’s death “sad.”

He was rushed to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) Delhi where he underwent an angioplasty procedure. He had been on ventilator since and never regained consciousness.?
