Lagaan & Slumdog Millionare Actor Passes Away

Veteran actor Anupam Shyam (64) died on Sunday following multiple organ failures. Anupam Shyam is famous for his roles in Lagaan, Dil Se, Satya, Golmaal, and Sulmdog Millionaire.

His co-star from Lagaan and friend Yashpal Sharma and producer Ashoke Pandit confirmed the news of Anupam’s death. The actor was last seen in Mann Kee Awaaz: Pratigya 2.

Anupam Shyam was hospitalised for 4 days. He had high blood sugar and used to take injections during the shooting of his last film. “Sad to know about the demise of one of the finest actors & a great human being #AnupamShyam due to multiple organ failure. My heartfelt condolences to his family. A great loss to the film & tv industry,” producer Ashoke Pandit said.

It is reported Anupam had developed serious kidney issues and was admitted to a hospital in July last year where he collapsed during dialysis. Actors Manoj Bajpayee and Sonu Sood helped the actor and his family last year.

Anupam Shyam started his career with Shyam Benegal’s Sardari Begum and later worked in several Bollywood projects.
