Pradeep Sarkar’s demise has shocked the entire film industry. The ace filmmaker breathed his last at 3.30 am on March 24. He was 68.
ETimes got in touch with Raima Sen, who had worked with him on his 2005 directorial debut, ‘Parineeta’. Talking about his sudden demise, a shocked Raima told us, "I received an award recently. In my acceptance speech, I mentioned the names of a few directors, which included Vinay Shukla and Pradeep Sarkar. I sent a clip of it to Vinay and Pradeep sir, both. While Vinay replied, saying he was proud of me, I couldn't help but wonder why Pradeep sir hasn't responded."
