Bollywood's veteran actor-writer Kader Khan passed away on
the 31st of December. His death was due to prolonged illness at the age of 81.
Kader Khan's son Sarfaraz broke the news and soon fans started pouring
condolences on social media. The last rites were held in a Toronto cemetery
later in the day. The veteran actor who worked in over 300 movies was admitted
to a hospital in Toronto and had been under treatment since a very long time.
Evergreen dynamic star Govinda's association with Kader Khan
and their onscreen chemistry on the big screen kept the viewers entertained for
the years. Some of his most remarkable movies as a comedian-character actor are
"Himmatwala", "Coolie", "Coolie No.1",
"Saajan Chale Sasural", "Judaai", "Dulhe Raja,"
"Aunty No.1"
"Shahenshah", "Pyar Ka Mandir" and "Khoon Bhari
Maang" among many. Kader Khan was an amazing writer as well and had penned
the story-dialogues for movies like "Amar Akbar Anthony",
"Muqaddar Ka Sikandar" and "Khuddar" among others.
Shakti Kapoor in a media chat talked about his equation and
the relationship he shared with Kader Khan. "I learnt a lot from him and I
will miss him a lot. He once told me that his acting career began as a theatre
artist. He was a professor in a college and would come up with dialogues while
riding the scooter. His assistant, who would be riding pillion, would write
them down. I always told him that he was my guru; I used to touch his feet. We
were the best of friends. I would never leave him alone for a moment when we
were together and not shooting because there was so much to learn," he revealed.
Kader, 81, is survived by his wife Hajra, sons Sarfaraz and
Shahnawaz and grandchildren.
Our condolences to family and RIP to Kader Khanji.
