Known for his resonating voice and stellar performances in over 250 regional, mainstream cinema and shows, veteran actor Ravi Patwardhan passed away at a private hospital in Thane following a heart attack late Saturday.
Ravi was 84 years old. He was rushed to hospital after he complained of breathing issues and suffered a seizure at home. Initially, he showed signs of improvement, but later stopped responding, and within half an hour, he passed away.
The actor had met with a minor accident at home following which he had stopped shooting for a Marathi serial. Associates and neighbours remembered him as being health conscious, and said he used to follow a dedicated fitness regime.
Patwardhan straddled languages and media with equal ease. He is known for his inimitable style of portrayal of myriad characters. His powerful voice and strapping figure came in good use as the shrewd public prosecutor in 'Tezaab' and the lustful politician, MLA Bane, in Jabbar Patel's 'Umbartha'. His versatility shone through as he played an endearing senior citizen in one of his latest Marathi TV shows 'Aggabai Sasubai'.
The actor is survived by his wife, two sons and grandchildren.
