Bollywood veteran actor Om Puri dies of heart attack

Bollywood veteran actor Om Puri dies of heart attack

The actor passed away in Mumbai early this morning
Updated 06 Jan, 2017

Indian actor Om Puri has passed away after a massive heart attack in Mumbai early this morning, Indian Express reported. He was 66.

His close friend, filmmaker Ashoke Pandit, was the first to announce his passing on Twitter:

According to Times of India, Puri returned home last evening after a shoot and didn't answer his door bell in the morning. His driver then raised an alarm. Puri’s body was taken to Cooper hospital for postmortem.

His funeral will take place at 6pm, according to a tweet by his colleague and friend Shabana Azmi:

Puri was a veteran of Bollywood cinema and also appeared in Pakistani film Actor In Law last year. He visited Pakistan frequently, being an ardent supporter of Pak-India cultural collaborations and was a regular fixture on the film and literary festival circuit in Pakistan.

He said of his experience of filming Actor In Law in Pakistan, "I really like working in Pakistan, because I'm pampered a lot here. I keep responding to people's salaams from morning to night. So many people want to throw me a dinner party at their house. And everyone wants a selfie."

He continued, "I've known Pakistanis abroad for about 20 years. I have always received love from them, so much so that it's hard to believe that there are conflicts between our two countries. I pray that we find our way to peace and both countries work towards progress, friendship and trade."

Puri also played several Pakistani characters in British and Hollywood films, from the iconic role of George Khan in British dramedies East is East and West is West to President Zia-ul-Haq in Charlie Wilson's War.

He was last seen in Manoj Sharma's Yeh Hai Lollipop.

Members of the Bollywood fraternity took to Twitter to mourn his loss:

Rest in peace, Om Puri.

A part of bridge between Pakistan and India is gone, bridge that is above race, religion and any nationalistic idiology, wonder who will fill that gap.

What a heart breaking news. He was a great artist, had his unique place in art movies. His performance has always been very enlightening and meaningful. He will dearly be missed on both sides of the border ! Let's keep up his dreams whereby we both neighbors enjoy social and cultural ties and are eventually able to bury the hatred and man made differences once and for all.

I am very saddened about the passing away of Mr. Puri. He was not only a great actor, but a good and fine human being. I have enjoyed all the movies I have watched. I was always delighted to read his experience when visiting Pakistan. He always felt at home when coming to Pakistan. People in Pakistan always respected him as an actor as well as a fine human being. We will miss him very much.

Extremely grieved to know about the sudden demise of Om Puri Sahib. RIP He was an excellent actor, great human being. His untiring and incomparable efforts to bring India and Pakistan closer to each other will always be remembered. Talking about his performance in Hindi films, I would say 'DROH KAAL' was one of his best. Indeed it's an irreparable loss to Indian Cinema. has

There will be condolences, I am sure with all sincerity, and tributes for his well-deserved accomplishments. Howeever, I believe, what he will be remembered most for is his love and affection for the inhabitants of the sub-continent and his sincere desire that they live in peace and harmony. All of us should give this matter a serious thought and that, in my view, will be a lasting tribute for the one and ony OM PURI.
