Fardeen Khan was in no position to face the camera yesterday. The actor, who is shooting in Goa for All The Best, did not can a single scene as he was extremely disturbed by the loss of his pet.
Tiger, the 15-year-old dog, passed away on Monday. He was very attached to the pooch, who had been an integral part of their household. Though they have other pets, Tiger, had a special place in their lives. 
It is learnt that Fardeen had bought home Tiger, a wounded stray, whom he then took to the vet for treatment. The pooch never left his side since.
Says a source, "Though Fardeen reported for the shoot, he just could not give it his best. Producer Ajay Devgan, though admittedly not a dog lover, understood Fardeen's grief and gave him the day off.
The dog had not been keeping well of late, and Fardeen had recently made a trip to Mumbai from the lengthy outdoor schedule to check on Tiger's failing health.
Adds the source, "On hearing about Tiger's demise, Fardeen sent his wife Natasha (who is accompanying him on the shoot) to give him a decent funeral."
Double sorrow
The source continues, "His sorrow has doubled. First Fardeen lost his dad, and now Tiger. He is still grieving for his dad. His pet's loss is another big blow to him."
The schedule ends at the end of the month, and Fardeen is dreading returning home without Tiger at the doorstep to greet him.
