Poor turnout for Pran’s funeral
Although he has been hailed as the greatest villain in the history of bollywood, the turnout from the industry at Pran’s funeral was abysmal. Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha made his disappointment clear, saying “I saw very few people from the film industry. A man who gave 70 years of his life to the film industry deserved a much heftier send-off”.
Sinha himself cancelled a trip to Patna to attend the veteran acting legend’s funeral. only a handful of people like Amitabh bachchan, Anupam Kher, Karan Johar, raj babbar and Shakti Kapoor came to pay their last respects to the 93-year-old actor. Certainly not bollywood at its best! Fortunately, Pran’s contribution to the hindi film industry is indelible and unforgettable. rIP, Pran saab!
