Mumbai, August 23

Actor-filmmaker Mahesh Manjrekar has undergone a surgery after being diagnosed with urinary bladder cancer.

The 63-year-old actor is back home following the medical procedure at the HN Reliance Foundation Hospital here last week.

There were reports that the actor was discharged post surgery.

“Yes, I did get operated on, and I’m on the road to recovery,” Manjrekar confirmed to PTI.

The veteran is known for directing acclaimed films like the 1999 drama ‘Vaastav: The Reality’, National Award winning ‘Astitva’ (2000) and the Amitabh Bachchan-starrer ‘Viruddh… Family Comes First’.

Manjrekar has also directed the upcoming Salman Khan-starrer, ‘Antim: The Final Truth’. PTI

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
