According to the sources, after struggling with illness for several years, Hindi cinema’s most cherished villain breathed his last around 8.30pm Friday evening at the Lilavati hospital in Mumbai. He was 93 year old man.
Born on February 12, 1920 in Delhi, Pran Kishan Sikand (full name) started his career studying photography in Lahore. A chance meeting with a film producer got him his first break in a Punjabi film, Yamla Jat, in 1940. During Partition in 1947, Pran moved to Mumbai and revived his film career after a brief struggle. He worked in over 400 films and had new mannerisms and a different style in each one, holding the audience spellbound with his versatile and dynamic acting.
Along with his film career, Pran was involved in a number of social activities, including the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund and the Film Industry Welfare Trust. He also organized charity events and cricket matches for needy folk in the film industry.
Pran was a gem of an actor and an individual who will always be fondly remembered. Reportedly, the last rites of the actor will take will be conducted at 12 noon at the Shivaji Park crematorium in Mumbai on Saturday. May his soul rest in peace.
