While biopics and autobiographies have become a trend in Bollywood, veteran actor and filmmaker Manoj Kumar, before his sudden demise, made it clear that he had no interest in chronicling his own life—either on screen or in print.
The star, also known as Bharat Kumar, for his patriotic works, passed away on Friday morning, his son, Kunal Goswami confirmed in a statement. Speaking to ANI, he said, "He was unwell for a long time, but he has overcome everything with great intensity. It is God's grace that he passed away peacefully. He will be cremated tomorrow morning. Thank you to all of you."
