विजया मेहता जी यांच्या निधनाने अत्यंत दुःख झाले आहे. सांस्कृतिक आणि चित्रपट क्षेत्रातील एक उत्तुंग व्यक्तिमत्त्व म्हणून त्या सदैव स्मरणात राहतील.

​आधुनिक मराठी रंगभूमीच्या त्या प्रणेत्या होत्या, सर्जनशीलता आणि कलात्मक उत्कृष्टता यांच्याप्रती असलेल्या निष्ठेसाठी त्या ओळखल्या जात होत्या. त्यांच्या कार्याने अभिनेते, दिग्दर्शक आणि रंगभूमीप्रेमींच्या अनेक पिढ्यांना प्रेरित केले.

​या दुःखद प्रसंगी त्यांच्या कुटुंबीयांप्रती, चाहत्यांप्रती आणि संपूर्ण कलाक्षेत्राप्रती माझ्या मनःपूर्वक संवेदना व्यक्त करतो. ओम शांती.
