Popular television actor Shaheer Sheikh’s father passed away on Wednesday after battling a severe Covid infection.

Shaheer had earlier said that his father was on a ventilator due to the infection.

Actor Aly Goni shared his condolences on Twitter on Wednesday night and asked Shaheer to stay strong.

Aly wrote: “Inna Lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un. May Allah rest uncle’s soul in peace bhai @Shaheer_S, stay strong bhai.”

Just a few days back, Shaheer had shared a throwback picture of his father and urged everyone to pray for him.

“My dad is on a ventilator, suffering from a severe covid infection… pls keep him in your prayers,” he wrote.

Shaheer will soon be seen in Season 2 of ‘Pavitra Rishta’. IANS

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).
