"We have lost our Gaga, Dragan Nikolic, a great of the Yugoslav and Serbian art, who marked an entire era on stage, film, and television."

The president stressed that Nikolic, "with his unique charm and personality, was, and shall forever remain in our hearts."

"Respected and dear Milena, I share in all your grief sincerely and as a friend," Nikolic concluded.
