Sad news hits the TV industry!!!
Yesterday, trailblazer director Rituparno Ghosh entered the gates of heaven and now distressing news has hit us that talented actor Abir Goswami has passed away.
Yes, shocking indeed!!!
As per media reports Abir suffered a massive cardiac arrest. He underwent a surgery for Lymphoma last year in May.
Abir left the realms of Earth yesterday night. He was in the gym when he had the heart attack and rushed to the hospital.
There cannot be a bigger irony than the fact that he posted on Twitter, "Rituda may ur soul RIP. I'm honoured to be touched by ur genius in ths life..." and later he too experienced the touch of death.
Our thoughts go out to Abir and his family.
